Hello! I am a premed student taking integral calculus. It is the last math class I need to take for my degree and for my pre-med requirements. The problem is that I really struggle with calculus (which is why I am actually retaking this class). Does anyone have any resources or techniques that helped them? Thanks!

Do you also have statistics (preferably bio statistics)?

I graduated as a math major and his videos were my life savor.

I do not

I do not

A large number (the majority) want you to have taken Statistica as opposed to calculus/in addition to statistics

Agreed. Not only is stats much more useful, but only a handful of schools want calculus while a lot of them want stats.

You need to practice a LOT, when I say a lot, I mean a LOT of practice. And I would recommend all the resources mentioned above. Plus, study groups, going to TA/ office hours and asking questions, and following the teacher attentively in class are my best recommendations. Good luck!

Don't know what stats class you'll need to take, but mine had some concepts of calculus tied in so make sure you get your basics down pat.

I really like these videos, but other than the beginning of it, the rest is over my head. I wish they did more videos on conceptual trig, algebra etc.
