<p>The outlook for me passing Math 35 this semester doesn’t look too good right now. The class moves so very, very fast for me. I haven’t missed a single class, I do all the tutoring, math lab, see my instructor, do my homework every day and so forth. I spent all of spring break doing algebra. I spend every afternoon and evening and weekend doing algebra. I am applying myself! I catch on but not fast enough. Does anyone know if there is a community college in Riverside County that offers math 35 at a slightly slower pace? I know I could pass this class if I could just slow down a little bit. We don’t stay in one place long enough for me to absorb, is what I am thinking the problem may be. I am not stupid, I just need to go a little bit slower. </p>
<p>Can anyone suggest a community college that offers Math 35 at less than the speed of lightening, like it is at Riverside City College? Maybe I need to go to another school for a semester to get through this.</p>
<p>Ummm, no one would really know on CC. Your question is way too specific.</p>
<p>You really have to do the contacting, call up every community college in Riverside County. </p>
<p>Based on the syllabus online, Math 35 Intermediate Algebra sounds like a souped up middle school algebra 2 class. If tutoring and office hour doesn’t work, I really don’t know what you could do. Perhaps try seeking help on line?</p>
<p>Slap, slap. “souped up middle school algebra 2 class”. Friendly and helpful group. Thanks senior member.
When I was in high school, math wasn’t even a required course. The work kids do in middle school today is pretty impressive to me. I get good grades in all my other classes. Only having trouble with the numbers. Couldn’t hurt to ask, I figured. It did hurt (a little) though. I will contact the schools and thanks for the on-line suggestion.</p>
<p>You can try going to [Khan</a> Academy](<a href=“http://www.khanacademy.org/index.html]Khan”>http://www.khanacademy.org/index.html) and browsing through his Algebra videos. He doesn’t cover everything, but with the level you’re at he probably will cover most of it. </p>
<p>Salman Khan makes those videos for people like you. Hopefully he’ll teach it in a way that you can understand. You can always rewind or watch the videos over again if you need to refresh on a concept.</p>
<p>Good luck. I hope it all works out for you.</p>
<p>I took math 35 two times already and dropped it before I got a crap grade I have a 2.7 g.p.a and only Math 35 and P.E left to complete to get my AA…</p>
<p>Maybe the problem is that the foundation in Alg I isn’t strong enough. The Khan Academy is a good suggestion. Start back with Alg I. I don’t think that another CCC class is going to be any different. They all have a basic range of material to cover in the allotted time. So maybe you need to do remedial work, then preparation work for Alg II beforehand.</p>
