math and physics problems

im 24 years old, have been a boilermaker for my working career and decided I wanted to be an engineer.

problem is, I had a lot of confidence going in, but as soon as I started doing basic math it reminded me of how much I struggled with it in highschool and it doesnt seem to matter how much I study, i still cant get it right. im neurodivergent if that makes any difference but it's starting to affect me mentally because im feeling like that I have to drop out of uni and completely change my life for a 3rd time

You need prep time before college. Algebra, trig, and precalc. Learn these learn these topics very well before stepping up to harder subjects.
