Follow these steps if you want to succeed:
1.Find out what math course you'll be taking, whether its precac or algebreh
2. Find the book your school uses.
3. Download the pdf, from a torrent site.
4. Buy the previous edition of the book off amazon for under $30
5.Start doing problems
6. Cop a chegg account to make sure you're doing them right, and youtube things you're unclear about
7. Practice doing problems over and over, until you become really quick at doing them.
8.Succeed.
The sooner you start this, the better off you'll be.

@Pyrexcup
forget all that old school nonsense. time to get with the times.
click this link and find out which math you're going to take
http://www2.acenet.edu/credit/?fuseaction=browse.getOrganizationDetail&FICE=1004997
this acenet.edu stuff will give you college credit for certain courses you take thru these venders. the vender for math that is accepted/accredited is Aleks.com . you will see after clicking on that link it will show you all of the aleks classes that will grant you college credit. the way aleks works is this. you pay a monthly fee of like $20. Its on you how fast you want to complete your course. the longer you take obviously the more $20's you'll pay out. but this is a dirt cheap way of taking math. and its actually better than the old fashion way unless you end up with a great teacher(which doesnt happen most of the time in math. most teachers are good at math but not good at teaching it.) Anyway, this thing works similar to https://www.khanacademy.org/ which i also recommend for brushing up on math all the way from basic 2+2 to calculus II or so.
you will be given an online assessment to see where you already are(you probably remember some things and not others). then it will show you what you need to learn. you will then get homework like questions on those areas and you cant move on until you complete those assignments, then take another assessment that will have you tested in the areas you were working in recently. wash rinse and repeat until you're done.
The beauty of this is two fold. #1 you are actually taking the real class while also going thru the material. unlike if i sent you to khan or like what you were about to do which is semi audit the class first(go thru the material practice problems on your own). thats wasting time. might as well dive right in. you wont have to have that fear of failing because Aleks doesnt work like that. its all about how good you are at certain topics within a subject. if you're not that good fine, we'll get you there. Thats their setup. By the time you realize "i think i got it" you will be done with the class and have college credit TOO all for cheap assuming you knock it out. but you have to stay on it and do some work consistently every day.
you will never find a cheaper way to knock out some college level math.
***one last thing. notice i never said to purchase a book. DIRT CHEAP. no downloading of torrents, nothing. $20 per month to use their system and finish the class with legit college credit. Thank me later.***

you sound like a salesman 
I gave breh a solid way of studying. A method that can be geared towards any math, science or in life.
pyre. leave that book alone. do exactly as i said and you wont have to worry about a book for practice. it will give you practice. just because its something you have never done do not be afraid to do it. I promise you it WORKS better than your standard grab a book and study method. I guarantee it.@rapbeats thanks for the info. found out the book used for the course which is Haggarty, R: 2002, Discrete Mathematics for Computing., Addison Wesley cant find it on torrents though or any other site
a lot of people hate on that method before they actually try it. then once they do it for a minute they go OHhh wow, how could i have done it any different. if you want to see how that similar setup works for free. use https://www.khanacademy.org/math
and choose the math that you want to go into. and follow along from there. thats it. that Aleks program teaches in a similar fashion. just without the extra youtube video lesson/help(which is great with khan). again get up off that old method.
Looks like you & @TheRealfG are about to be best buds@rapbeats thanks for the info. found out the book used for the course which is Haggarty, R: 2002, Discrete Mathematics for Computing., Addison Wesley cant find it on torrents though or any other site

How hard did you look:
took me less than two minutes. How you a computer scientist but can't search shyt
@Mowglii know how to search, that book is similar but not the same book

You seem to be worried about your incompetence in mathematics, but really haven't said much apart from the fact that you want to go back to college.
What are you looking to do AFTER college?
no. you do not understand something. i gave him a method to save money while also going to college while also studying math too. pay attention and stop getting sensitive about your way winning. its not about that. thats the old method and its fine for certain situations. you no longer have to use that old school method. there's a better way. USE a better way. unless you're afraid of innovation and you want to spend excess time. Time = Money too. and you want to spend more money in the end. thats on him.
