Taking Calc I After Not Doing Math for Years

I’m returning to college this fall and one of the classes I need to take for my major is Calc I. My last class was pre-calc a few years ago and I barely remember anything now. I want to take advantage of the summer to build the foundations before the semester, but I'm overwhelmed trying to figure out where to even begin and what resources to use. Is it possible to get back on track by August? I have to pass this class (kinda panicking)

Im in my third semester and today I finished an intro to stats class with a C. Which brings my GPA down from a 4.0 to a 3.7. I know it's not the end of the world and that there's still time to improve, but as someone who’s a perfectionist when it comes to staying competitive this crushed me. It just sucks that I worked so hard just for one class to ruin it.

My other science courses (bio, chem) were easy A's, but stats just never clicked no matter how much I studied. All I'm thinking about is how this affects my chances and it happens everytime I'm not satisfied (':
