Shrug off the pain. They'll have to hurt you more.

So I'm in the middle of the second semester of Informatics engineering now.
Ever since the first semester, I've been reflecting on how much I've forgotten from my previous education, I think it's rather worrying.
I've basically forgotten basic reality stuff like metric units, elementary, middle, and high school maths and physics.
Ironically, I was able to pass through quadratic, differential and integral without understanding much of the basic algebra. (I still failed my physics class though)
I feel like I should've been able to retain some crucial bits of my previous education.
