what do I ABSOLUTELY NEED to know for calc 1?
Look at your syllabus!!
I have no syllabus yet! Im trying to prepare for this upcoming fall semester.
Algebra and Trig. :P
A lot of algebra. Calculus itself is not challenging. The problem people have with calculus is that it makes extensive use of _everything_ you should have learned up to this point. So be sure you are solid on all the different parts of algebra and trig. The calculus part is actually pretty easy.
True story.
