Question 1106647: This is a different kind of question any advice would be appreciated. I’m planning to go back to school for a career change to be a computer programmer. I’m self studying high school math in preparation for college math because I forgot all of it. Almost done with algebra 2. How much time should I spend reviewing things I’ve already learned? How can I get better at things I’ve already learned? How will I know if I’m smart enough for college math, it’s intimidating? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks, Aaron.

I suggest you Google "SAT practice tests" to measure
your math competence.
In general you will be ready for College Math if you
understand Intermediate Algebra, Trigonometry and some Geometry.
----
SAT practice books can be found at your local public library.

Good luck with your efforts.

.
Also, you can find textbooks on Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry in your local public library.

Even if they are comparatively old - do not hesitate use it.

By the way, all old textbooks on these subjects are BETTER than the newest ones.
