Hey /sci/, I could use some advice.

Long story short i'm going back to college, but i'm pretty apprehensive about it since I haven't done the school thing in a while. What would be a good way for me to refresh myself on math for example?

How old are you? When did you quit? At what level did you stop?

>>8568372
Find a math book, do problems, note which ones you missed, study the relevant concepts

It'd be helpful if you mentioned what degree you're going back to college for.

21 years old, stopped right before calculus.

I'd like to go back and get my degree in engineering technology. It isn't quite as math intensive as some other degrees but still has a decent bit.

I'm not in the US, so I have no idea what comes before calculus. Since you stopped there, maybe you could start right there.

Stewart is common among engineers, Leithold used to be popular, I think, both are less proof-oriented so they may fit you well, but they tend to be bore you because they are so repetitive. If you want to read a textbook more mathematically oriented, I think Spivak or Apostol are good choices; I recommend the former, though I like Apostol better, it can be more dry than Spivak.
I assume you already took linear algebra?
