I failed Algebra 2, and have a second chance for repeating it

Seriously I hope you the best of luck. This stuff isn't hard compared to calculus.

Ok, but I really don't know much stuff from Algebra 1, so I hope what the teachers gives out info for I listen carefully.

The mark of a poor student is one that doesn't even bother asking for help. The teacher is there for a reason. You should get to know them. Most schools not only make the teacher accessible, they also provide other forms of help i.e. tutoring. You can also try getting into study groups with other students, who are probably also struggling to understand the subject.

There is no excuse for cheating.

Wow, thanks for the encouragement

While it is harsh, that is true. Teachers are there for a reason.

I have done my fair share of cheating, but I always ask the teacher for help when I really don't understand it.

You cheated. It's not like you tried and failed. You didn't even bother trying.

So true, only in my case I'd replace "the teacher" with "a teacher". Usually, the only reason I couldn't "get" a subject was because the particular teacher was terrible. So I'd ask someone else to explain it to me. And it works. Do it.

I know. I've done my bad share in math, but I really gotta step it up a notch. Do I really need to know any stuff from Algebra I or is everything provided in Alg II good?

Math, more so than almost any other subject, is cumulative. You most definitely need the foundations provided by earlier classes.

There's about a billion sources for you to learn on the internet, like:

Seriously, it was hard to fail public school before the widespread adoption of the internet. With the advent of Google you need to make an effort to fail. Just Google if you are confused about a topic. God.

Do you need to know material from Algebra 1 for Algebra 2? Of course you do. However, all math class, at least every single math class I've taken, always have a review at the beginning of the school year.

and all of them are linked in a way, just like your elementary math, when u learn addition, subtraction, division and multiplication, do they linked up with the other math lessons? of cos they do. same with algebra 1, in future math class, although some of them might not look algebra, but they actually are!

anyway, just practice, practice, practice.
