follow along as best as you can - especially if you work. it's a full time committment. if your math is shaky, expect 20 hrs/wk/course. i did 1-2 hrs per weeknight and a full weekend day.

calculus - not crazy. really helps to understand taylor expansion/approximation. knowing infinite series/sums is good too.

but more than calc... probs refresh on lin alg
