I am starting from scratch and I am going for my PPL/CPL training in a few weeks.. Just wanted to know what are the subjects that i need to know so that i can prepare myself well before i leave. Few of them that i was able to find :

Maths :
- linear equations
- polynomials
- quadratic equation
- solving algebraic inequalities
- roots simplification
- differential equation
- integral and derivate
- function analysis
- trigonometry
- exponential
- basics of complex numbers
- basics of probability and statistics

Physics :
- basic physics sizes (length, mass, angle, t°, volume, speed, acceleration)
- units (meter, kilogram, second, amps)
- distance traveled, speed, acceleration
- weight, mass, density and volume
- Newton’s law, inertia, forces
- determination of center of gravity
- work, energy, power (kinetic energy, pressure energy)
- thermometric scales: °C, °F, °K
- pressure, density, t° of a liquid or a gas
- perfect gases law, Boyle-Mariotte law, Gay-Lussac law, Dalton’s law
- change of state of a liquid/gas/solid
- Basics of electricity: DC and AC current, tension, equivalent resistance, Ohm
- Basics of magnetism: magnetic field, permanent magnet, lines of flux


Please correct me if i am wrong on the above and also would like all to add ur vews on more subjects that i need to know to have a better avaition career.
