The Catch-Up Plan

Four-week schedule, the daily drill, and how to study from Thomas — plus an honest look at the "everyone is ahead of me" fear.

🌀 Module 1 · §11.3–11.5

Polar Coordinates

A new way to name points; graphing r = a ± b sin θ; area and arc length in polar form.

🚀 Module 2 · §2.3–2.6 + §13.1–13.4

Limits & Vector Functions

The self-study limits block fully mapped, then motion in space: velocity, arc length, curvature.
