Seven years out of highschool, I realize I only have basic arithmetic skills left. I'm trying to relearn math to the calculus level having forgotten mostly everything. Are there sources that mostly focus on mathematic disciplines in terms of their real world functions? I want to understand better the theoretical concepts in math and the kinds of real problems that they intended to resolve. Are there theory/practical application intensive courses I can use to supplement my purely technical studies? Something that gets at the underlying logic behind mathematics and can express that besides numerical terms?

This fucking scares me. I think the worst possible thing is coming to a problem that includes a concept you should have already known a long time ago.

In highschool I viewed math as a means to getting the right answers on tests. So I forgot anything I learned pretty quickly despite getting good grades.

You can give someone a date without knowing the order of the months.
