Hi, I'm interested in the sciences, but my background in math and science is a little weak. I need to self study, because in college you're expected to know some basics already. So I was wondering if I could get some help in creating a syllabus or a study plan to learn some of the basics. now i know that the fields of science are very broad and diverse, and that eventually I will need to pick one specific field and specialize. but isn't there a way I can be a "jack of all trades"? i would like to go to medical school, so a way for me to do well in the science courses in school and also to totally destroy the MCAT.
im planning on switching majors (im currently bio major), but if i switch to something easier, i can devote more time to self studying even during the school year. then i'll take about a semester of a year of as much science and math courses as I can. or if i can work on my weak areas (basic math n science) for 1 semester, then i can stay a bio major or even switch to chemistry / physics then finish up.
self study syllabus or plan for math and science:
*semester one: math and bio (bio doesn't require much math)
===================
math: part I
-times tables
-adding, sub, div, mult long digits
-finding percents, decimals
-fractions
------------------
math: part II
-algebra
-pre-calc
bio:
not sure where to go
semester two: chem and physics (these two are math intensive)
=====================
chem:
not sure where to go
physics:
not sure where to go

foot note:
*semester here is different from school semester. it could be like 5 weeks or something. just my own personal time frame.
