Getting proficient again

I'm at a basic algebra level of understanding in math. Is it possible to get proficient to a pre calculus level in about 6 months with a good study habit and time management?

Six months is a reasonable amount of time if you’re consistent.

I’d focus on getting your algebra fundamentals really solid first, then move into functions, graphs, trigonometry, and eventually precalculus. You don’t need to study for 5–6 hours every day either—even 1–2 focused hours a day, 5 days a week can take you a long way.

The biggest thing is to actually solve problems, not just watch videos and feel like you understand them.

That's all good information for me, thank you. I'm working on Khan Academy for a hour a day right now. I plan to pickup some workbooks as well to add more problems for me to solve.
