If you are asking about how hard Pre-Calculus is in high school, it is not hard. If you are asking about how hard Pre-Calculus is in high school, it is not hard. It is just a more tedious version of Algebra, where you deal with ugly fractions and decimals and do more complex factoring and stuff like that.

Can you teach yourself precalculus?

Precalculus offers a proven self-teaching approach that lets you work at your own pace-and the frequent self-tests and exercises reinforce what you’ve learned. Turn to this one-of-a-kind teaching tool and, before you know it, you’ll be solving problems like a mathematician!

How do I get good at precalculus?

How to Pass Precalculus

1. Get Ready Before Class. Make sure that you complete any reading assigned by your instructor by the time it is due.
2. Make the Most of Class Time. Attending every class should be a priority.
3. Put in Study Time.
4. Get the Help You Need.
5. Check Out Online Study Resources.

How long does it take to learn precalculus?

if you devote 2–3 hours a day for learning, I would say 2–3 weeks.

Can I learn algebra in a month?

If so, then learning algebra in a month should be pretty doable. If you already knew algebra and forgot most of it, you could learn about 60-90% of algebra (highschool level) to a pretty good degree.

Do you need to take Algebra 2 before pre-calculus?

Pre-calculus books will assume that you already have taken algebra 2 and trigonometry, and they will “teach” it as such. So you don’t really “need” to take Algebra 2/trig if your precalc books covers it all at the proper depth and detail, but the concepts that you learn from Algebra 2/trig must be completely mastered.

Can I take geometry and algebra 2 at the same time?

Sure, you can do algebra 2 and geometry concurrently. But you need to be aware that each is a full course and doing both in one year means that he will have to spend twice as much time on math as with one course.

Can you take Algebra 2 and Pre calc at the same time?

For Alg II and Pre-calc the curriculum is pretty much okay to be done side by side as long as you can do the basic stuff from Alg II because a lot of it will be covered again in Pre-calc.

What is the difference between Algebra 2 and Precalculus?

Pre-Calc is more or less a combination of functions and trigonometry. Usually, Algebra 2 is a prerequisite for Precalculus. Precalculus includes Trigonometry and more advanced algebra than Algebra 2. Algebra 2 prepares you for Precalculus, while Precalculus prepares you for Calculus (and other university-level math).

What grade do you take Algebra 2 in?

11th grade

Should I take Algebra 2 over the summer?

If you would run out by senior year, then do not do this. I do not recommend taking Algebra 2 over the summer, it is an intense course and should not be rushed because you need a good understanding of Algebra 2 for other math and science courses.

When should I take Algebra 2?

The bottom line is students can take Algebra 2 in 9th, 10th or 11th grade. Every school district work differently. Our district starts Algebra for really advanced kids at 7th grade. The Advanced kids take Algebra in 8th grade.

Is taking algebra 2 online hard?

I took algebra 2 over the summer. I was in geometry in 8th grade and wanted to be further ahead, so I took an online course. It isn’t too difficult, but there really is a lot of new material and you have to be sure you understand the concepts.

Which is harder geometry or algebra 2?

To do well in geometry, you need to keep up with the theorems and definitions, and learn to show every step of your work. Algebra 2/trig is a bit harder. But it is not that bad, as long as you keep up with your work DAILY. I found geometry easier than any of the other math courses in high school.

Can you skip pre algebra?

Skipping Pre-Algebra is a common option in schools (though some discourage it) because it is mostly review; the rest can be learned in about two hours.
