Calculus

[Jim Battin]

You could always learn calculus off to the side :).  That way you can
learn the things that you can apply to your work, and not all the other
stuff that might not be needed.

But if you have alg and geo down well, they go a lot farther then you'd
think.

'course, I'm just a Senior in HS, who hasn't even taken pre-calc yet :);
and im far too lazy to learn stuff off to the side...
