Quite honestly, there is nothing to really "study" before school starts. As long as you have a strong math background already and fully understood Algebra and Geometry you should be fine. Summer is a time to relax but just work hard and study consistently during the school year!

Especially algebra. Usually people who have taken algebra freshman year instead of geometry tend to understand trig moreso because they basically had an extra year to refresh on basic algebra. Note that trig is also coupled with algebra 2.

I totally agree with Jae.. I feel that you will be alot more prepared for trig if you took algebra freshman year. I took HONORS trig as a soph...and bleh. it wasnt the smartest idea :(
Although trig is alot like algebra, after a year of geometry, youve forgotten most of your algebra "rules." so, if you want/ or feel the need to review, just review your algebra stuff.
basically, thats it..the rest depends on your teacher...
Good luck!!

Not much you can do at this point, review some algebra/geometry if you feel like it. Just review what your teacher's taught you and make sure to do all of your homework. <-- This advice will actually get you at least a 90 in the majority of Tech's classes.

Just to put it out there, you will never have to do any more proofs or logic tables (unless you're in digital electronics) after geometry, enjoy.
You can't expect to do everything, but there is everything to be expected.

Unless of course, if you are going into the Mathematics Major; then you'll be taking on advanced geometry.

Oh well yeah, that's one of the most demanding majors along with aero, mech, and electro. Good luck.
