How am I supposed to pass calc 1??

a "minimal background in algebra" is simply not good enough for calculus. mastery of algebra is essentially mandatory if you want to not do badly. at the point where you start calculus, it will just be assumed that you can do algebra on your own without the individual steps being explained (after all, they're supposed to be teaching calculus, not re-teaching last year's algebra). if you can't, then you need to catch up.

Thank you for the problem set. I managed to get through the non-trig parts, do you have any specific resources you’d recommend for mastering trig identities and their applications?

Is part of your GPA anxiety from a minimum requirement for a scholarship? I had that kind of issue in my freshman year of college, and the stress caused me the headache of a lifetime. If you’re in a situation like this, try talking to an advisor about how flexible the stated minimum is and whether there is some sort of appeal or review process.

Not really. While my university does offer a limited number of scholarships for high achievers, I’ve been realistic with myself from the start; there will always be someone better than me at almost everything, and that’s okay. I decided it’s not worth the stress and uphill battle for something I’m unlikely to qualify for. Instead, I’ve chose to focus on building my skills and experiences as that's what really matters in the workforce these days.
