So I want to get prepared for college so when I enroll in engineering I'll be able to take calculus I, looking at Khan Academy I want to do Algebra, Geometry, Trig, Pre Calc and Statistics and Probability. Is this the proper course I should take to be prepared or should I skip through Stats and Prob?

Algebra, Trigonometry, and Pre-calc (exponentials and logarithms) are the most important subjects.

What is precalc? We dont have it in my country

So should I just skip over Geometry and Stats and Prob? I would like to be able to take a placement test and qualify to be able to take Calculus I or close

Look, if you want to just do calculus use khan academy, if you want to understand it like the back of your hand watch professor Leonard.

basic geometry postulates were useful, stats and prob I would worry about basic probability and null hypothesis testing (if you're interested in research)

stats and prob won't be involved in calc shit at all.
know your trig, alg and geometry. these three are your core foundation for calc. you will also be immensely grateful if you have a strong knowledge of geo and trig once you start doing your calc based phys.

This is exactly what I did when I went back to college and it was perfect. You should able to do each of the problems in the two review pages in the top right

See if you need to brush up on anything once you do your khan academy review.
So I'll skip stats and prob but should I do the Geometry part yes or no? Final question
Thanks for your guys help in advance

I've never seen probability or statistics in any placement exam.
