i'm a university student and at my 6th semester in informatics engineering. the line -it's important to do well in school - kinda hurt me a little bit. you see, i didn't pay attention to my math, physics, and science teacher. long story short, i struggled in my studies especially math related ones. can anyone point me to a course or a book that can help me understand the 9 years of math subjects that i missed. i feel like a junior high student in university and it's a serious problem.
here's a list of what i know in math: basic algebra, graphing on a coordinate plane, arithmetic, arrays, martrices, a bit of set theory, minimum understanding of probability, logic gates;
here are some stuff i kinda know but have to look up again over and over since i kept forgetting how to do them: fractions, and some math symbols that i already learnt and kept forgetting;
here are things i don't know in math: calculus, integrals, differentials, factorial, complicated algebra, vectors, a bunch of basic mathematics rules, and many more;
TLDR: i need you to help me get a good way of catching up with 9 year of math subjects so i can fulfill my dream of becoming a computer scientist and math teacher. i know it's a bit late for me but i really want to try my best at beating this problem.
Ps. sorry to bother

You do not need to excel in either math or science to be a good engineer. Clear communication and team management are very important in many engineering fields. Don't rule out engineering as a career path because your abilities lean towards the humanities. Always work to improve what you are weak at but make use of other's expertise in the field. I'm a Mechanical Engineer with 5+ years experience with projects in manufacturing, mining, oil & gas & civil works. In high school I failed chemistry. Do your best and keep your options open.

To become an engineer, know your math and science, you can choose a theoretical approach to engineering or take a more hands on approach. Process of any engineering discipline is research (find new ways to improve and solve problems, design (focus on the core idea and details of product, analytical (analyze the design and use math to build model, experimental (develop prototypes to test in environment, testing (checks the final product) and manufacturing (uses techniques to develop an efficient product. Good stuff!

I really appreciate this series and the care you take in presenting complicated subjects in a way that is understandable! As far as this video is concerned, there are two more engineering jobs I would mention pertaining to your aerospace example, control engineers designing and calibrating the control structures and algorithms, and the software engineers that turn all of the design into the software that accomplishes the control tasks.

Very well developed, and explained video! The best advice IMO is to study a lot, get through those classes, capture the big concepts, and be able to analyze systems and put concepts together. In my experience, school is the toughest part. After that, if you kill it in school, your work will not be as difficult (technically. There will be much more stress, however, to meet deadlines and keep projects under budget: D But it's fun!

When I was in middle school I wanted to be an industrial engineer, things changed and even with my high grades I decided to be a translator. I love science and literature and languages and philosophy so I chose translation to learn lots of things and educate myself first and my people. I hope I-ll do amazing job and being grateful for this decision.

So true! I learned foundations for my problem-solving skills while studying electric engineering, switched to computer science and learned both abstract and practical stuff. As the result made my career in weather forecasting (without taking a single course in meteorology.

Chemical Engineering Undergraduate here.
The host talks abt simulation in a very friendly tone. For me personally, simulations (chemical plant design parameters, aerodynamics, heat transfer) are nightmares. So many parameters, so many things that could go wrong.

I am in Junior Highschool and i want to be an engineer someday but the problem is i am not good at math that much but i keep studying it for a successful future. Wish me luck haha
