Intelligence and knowledge are two different things.

Based zoomer. Played any Fortnite lately?

>>10083017
where are you now?

>>10083017
how did you not take pre-calc or chemistry in highschool? there’s a wiki page that will bring you up to speed for any STEM major you want well past undergrad. Use the sticky

crash course youtube

>inb5 trigniggered autisticals

youtube, textbooks, khan academy, and so on and so on... Check the wiki or old threads for recommendations, we get these kinds of threads pretty often.

This. Based Khan can teach any retard the basics of almost anything.

>>10083017

I have my doubts about this list.

Nothing about it seems very objective, more just of "This is what I was assigned freshman year, so it must be the best!"

>>10086223
The list is fine but I would swap out Precalculus in a Nutshell with Lang's Basic Mathematics if you've never don't anything past Algebra 1/College Algebra.

>>10084322
THOUSAND FUCKING TIMES THIS. People might ridicule this shit, but Khan Academy showed me how simple shit math is and 5 years later I'm a physicist working in a national lab doing my PhD. I enrolled in uni at the age of 21 as well.

>>10084904
Physics and chemistry are ok, but are you trying to make him an engineer with those math books? Simmons? Are you fucking retarded?

>>10086321
>but are you trying to make him an engineer with those math books?

I can't tell what this is supposed to mean.

Do you mean the whole engineer meme of "pi = 3"

>NJB

Why? If you're going English-Roman, why would you not pick NABRE or even just wait until 2019 when RNJB will be released?

>>10083017
>not having any STEM-related classes for all of Gymnasium

are you /skandi/, anon?

>>10087215
Please no. This is too autistic. If you can't explain difficult concepts in a simple way than you shouldn't teach.
Books should be classified in how good they are by the their content but written as if you are trying to explain it to a total brainlet.

>>10087707
You can't do that at the graduate level which most of those books are.

>>10087348
Yahweh is Yahweh and not LORD.

>>10084904
>>10087215

Can someone explain to a brainlet like me the different audiences for these two lists?

>>10089228
First list is high school grad level. Second one is 4th year undergrad / graduate level.

>>10087355
If youre scandi and choose something non stem you deserve this fate

>>10089385
>First list is high school grad level

I would not expect a high school graduate, with no college, to be able to understand that first list.

>>10089385
So you understood everything from that list in high school? Kys.

>>10084199
Not him but in my country you have philology and social sciences specializations in which you do neither science nor math.

>>10090291
Everything is Freshman / AP level or stuff that builds on earlier material on the list.

>>10090331
>t. butthurt CS major

How many times did you fail calculus?

>>10090338
good god that's retarded
>>10090574
At my HS half the bright Juniors could do that course work. Meeting sophomore Econ majors who can't do calc is horrifying.

My "math senses" didn't kick in until I learned about basic logic and inference in high school. Most of math is folding existing information into new non-obvious facts. It also protects you against people using run-around bullshit logic to scam you.

>>10084322
>Those tits will never be real
Fuck me...

Also, yeah, Khans is exactly what OP is looking for

>>10090940
Math is more of just learning a new language.

>>10083017
hey I'm top of my History class too

>>10091819

>>10083017
Sorry anon, you will forever be a brainlet now. Just give up on becoming a scientist.

>>10091890

A man is a brainlet only as long as he chooses to be

>>10091819
Explain the joke to me.

>>10090577
Kinda unrelated but I feel like this is pretty common.

I failed calc twice because I never had to study in high school and would ace exams. Calc was the first class where I had to sit down and make a concentrated effort to practice so it fucked me the first two times. After I learned how to study I've gotten As in every math/science course since.

>>10084208
Crash Course is unironicly good for brainlets like OP

>>10089831
Most scandinavians pick non-stem studies. It's because after 9th grade, 14 year old kids are given the choice to drop all rigorous science classes for the rest of High school.

God, we really need to overhaul the wiki, it's fucking embarrassing.

What are your suggestions?
