You mentioned about taking science classes.. how did you start to remember all the formula? I just bought math and chemistry book and I completely blind when I see this.My math level probably is about balancing my checkbook only. I want to learn, but just don't know how to start.How do you start?
Sorry I'm so delayed in replying to you, Cp69. I haven't been around much all week. Mostly I've had my nose firmly planted in an anatomy book studying for my first massive exam (98% - yay me!).

There's scads of info and resources available on the internet now which didn't exist last time I was in school - back in the dark ages of typewriters and libraries. To refresh for this anatomy class, I used a flashcard-type site Anatomy for MIDDLE SCHOOL students, or something like that. Very helpful actually and fun (point and click on the body part - description pops up). Right at my 'getting back in the swing of things' level.

I also second the tutor recommendation. Track down some sharp, young, broke thing that lives and breathes chemistry or whatever subject you're needing assistance with. Tutoring will be a great help to get you up to speed.
