also, for as long as youre in calculus, remember you (probably) wont be asked to solve pathological integrals... the point is to teach you not frustrate you, even if trig subs or [insert here] frustrate you a lot. the problem is you have to learn math backwards because you wouldnt understand or need things like where calculus comes from without the gross oversimplifications demonstrated to you in calc 1-3.
integrating things you have to look up outside your book means youre probably doing it wrong if your book has tables of integrals. at least until higher level undergrad physics and grad math.
