In what order do you learn mathematics?
>Arithmetic
>Algebra
>Geometry
>Trigonometry
>Single Variable Calculus
>Multi-Variable Calculus
>Linear Algebra
>Ordinary Differential Equations
>Partial Differential Equations
>Analysis
>Abstract Algebra
Is this optimal? After Ordinary Differential Equations, you could easily study Physics as well, correct?

Can swap (for the most part):
Algebra and geometry;
Linear algebra with single variable calculus (still preceding multi);
ODEs with multi-variable;
Abstract algebra with ODEs.
You can cover a lot more topics in physics after ODEs, but PDEs will probably help as well. Also, if you want to get into higher theoretical physics, then you need topology and differential geometry.

It wasn't. The actual data is available. The GRE is easy.

When you say "can", do you mean "should" or does it not matter? Also, specific books are a question. For example, whether or not to learn calculus with the nonstandard infintesimal approach or the standard approach.

It does not matter. I don't really know about specific books, because I learned up to ODEs with an economics textbook. Also, I don't know what the standard and nonstandard approaches to calculus are, but I'm pretty sure you can't do calculus without looking at infinitesimal quantities.

I assure you they are the same thing.
