Is it possible for me to complete this in 1year? I am planning to give 4-5hrs perday. Will it be enough to complete it? It's okay even if I finish it before a year.
Its a syllabus of an entrance exam I want to take, so the faster I finish it, the better.
Only topics those are stated here, is to be learned, so no need to dive deep.

I am familiar and comfortable with single variable calculus and 10% of Linear Alebra(linear transformations, matrix representations).
Will it be possible?

You can finish that under 2 months with 5 hours a day

Well I learned most of that in a year of uni while being a generally unproductive and unmotivated student that left everything to cramming for 1-3 days before the exams. So yes, it's doable in a year. And if you actually commit the time you say you will and combine studying with practicing problems then you can ace it pretty confidently. Just make up some sort of timetable to approach this with a plan and avoid randomly trying to learn topics out of order. Finding someone who already knows this shit and can help would be useful too.

This all assumes that you are not a brainlet with low capacity for understanding and working with abstract concepts.

It seems to be about the usual 2 semester curriculum for the beginning of University, so yes, if you put in at least some work.

are you sure anon? The future will look very bright for me if can do so.

I a massive brainlet when it comes to actually doing the practice sums. Understanding a topic is not the hard part for me, but practicing and revising it is. if it makes any sense.

Yes its the syllabus of an entrance exam for a MSc program.
So this is from a traditional Bsc maths program.

Yes, but you have to study 5 hours a day, which is a lot

If you really have an issue with solving practice problems and don't know where to start then find full worked solutions and make up a sort of flowchart for yourself. Basically learn which steps to take when in different types of problems. Everything on that list is basic enough that problems can be solved with a generalised process that requires very little thought. In my experience at least.

Seems to be the stuff any math student will have to do, you just have to put in the effort, but one year should be enough if you seriously try.

The most important part of understanding.

>am a compSci student
I am a worthless NEET basically, staying home all day.
Doing my undergrad bachelors from an open uni. Year of passing was jul 2019, but I fucked up big time and have several backlogs. Now I have to take 6 more months.

Time is not an issue. But organizing and achieving set objectives is for me a big issue. Have to get my fucking life together now.

okay will try, thanks!
