>>10915743If you need a full chart starting from the basics, then you should start with a pre-calculus textbook and use Khan Academy as training wheels. It's almost impossible to get through our education system and not have some passing familiarity with algebra, geometry, trigonometry, etc., even if you're terrible at it. Use pre-calculus to review your calculus foundations and strengthen your problem-solving skills.
First find a good pre-calculus textbook (Axler if you wanna pay for a hardcover, Stitz-Zeager if you just want an online pdf without paying or pirating), and then do the entire book. These books are as far from "brainlet" textbooks as you can get for pre-calculus and will serve as an excellent foundation for calculus. Start 15-30 minutes at a time, then gradually extend the length of your sessions as you get used to the mental exertion. When you are lost, go to Khan Academy or the solutions guide, but do your best to read the textbook and solve the problems on your own. Eventually, you'll start to get confidence in your problem-solving abilities.
Once you finish pre-calculus, you can move onto either brainlet calculus books like Stewart (Thomas 3rd/4th or 5th-9th editions might be a better meme if paid, Knisley is good if you don't wanna pay or pirate), or you can jump into proofing and the brainmore calculus book of your choosing like Apostol, Spivak, Courant, etc. Once you have a taste of real math, read Kolmogorov’s survey of mathematics to figure out what you want to do next, then come back.
Don't take the brainlet/brainmore distinction seriously by the way, it's all about your priorities. If you want to start with brainlet calculus/linear algebra/differential equations/discrete mathematics/probability before moving onto proofing-based math, there's nothing inherently wrong with that, and it will help you in applying math to real world problems.!In fact, that's what modern mathematics curricula seems to do before throwing you into analysis.
