I'll just get to the point
I'm thinking I want to improve my math skills. I'm in 10th grade, basically only experienced with algebra, no geometry, calculus, whatever yet.
First question; what are the different courses of math? Like levels, categories, whatever they're called. I.E: Algebra would be one. Geometry would be another.
Second question; What are some resources you could refer me to that would skip all the useless stuff they do in class. What I mean is like generally in classes they will drag out the subjects, and it will end up being boring because when you could have easily gotten by on information that could be provided in half the time it took, the actual time they took is just unknowingly packing on information in hopes it might be useful to a couple kids in class, or is used for repeating information already learned.
Do any of you know where I can progress in math, learning the basics of each subject, so I have an understanding that's sufficient in grasping and obtaining the skill in hopes it will benefit me in the future? Things like Khan math, etc. It all just seems incredibly daunting, there's so many different math skills I COULD learn, so much information, I just don't want to waste my time. I really prefer(for many other things as well) when everything is layed out, as if in a check list, like "Do this, that, that, that, done". I don't like the information being scattered all over the place so that i'm not even sure where to start, because it makes me not want to start.
I just want someone to help me, and simplify it for me, like "Here are the main categories that will be important to learn, __, __, __, __. Now here are the sites that will help __ ,__, __, __. Now here are the things, on those sites, that you can do to get a basic understanding of each category, __, __, __, __, __."
I appreciate it.

Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

The more questions you ask, the more you realize that disagreement is inevitable, and communication of this disagreement, irrelevant.
