Studying for College...

Hey everyone!

So, I'm a senior in high school, about to graduate in November. I've read that pre-requisite classes for med school include Organic Chemistry and Calculus. My question is, would it be wise to begin studying these subjects now, or simply wait until I'm actually in these classes? I'm good in science (such as Biology and Physics), but I'm absolutely awful at math, which means Calculus, O-Chem, and maybe Chem is going to be an issue. I feel like I should get a head start right now by just skimming through books on these topics, but at the same time, I feel like I should wait until I have an actual professor teaching me this stuff. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

Wait until you're in the classes. Pre-studying is overkill.

It probably is, but...you haven't seen how badly I bomb my math classes...

That would be a problem with studying during class, not an issue that can or should be solved by studying before you know what you need to study.
