Currently a junior in high school taking Pre-Calc. Next year I'll be taking Calc 1, Statistics, and MAYBE Calc 2 (if it's offered in the second semester).
I'm wanting to learn more math than I currently am however. I love math, and I want to have a very strong background before I go into college (where I will be going into engineering, which requires plenty of math). I want to start now, but I'm not sure what to do.
I want to start self-studying/ reading up on college-level math. Is it possible to do this while still in the process of taking pre-calc? I've actually thought about starting to self-study Calc 1 at the same time as I'm taking pre-calc, even though I would be officially taking Calc 1 at my school next year. Is this a bad thing to do? I want to be self-studying math from now until when I graduate (3 semesters, one summer). I'm hoping to develop some sort of schedule that I can follow. I'm okay with some rigor and difficult subjects, as I am very disciplined and eager to learn more.. but I'm not a genius or anything (32 math ACT, 130 IQ).
It was a little difficult to articulate my situation, but hopefully you get the gist. Can anyone help me?
