Hey buddy i would highly recommend starting out with the manhattan Foundations of Math book. When I started out my math was very poor as well, I hadn't taken a math class since high school. After working through that book cover to cover my math raw score improved by 10 points and really helped me get a lot of the fundamentals down so I could build from there.

But anyway you need a lot of work with the basics. Don't try to dive into any sort of advanced material until you understand the basics.

I also strongly recommend Manhattan GMAT's Foundations of Math book. I rushed to learn the GMAT concepts, take a prep course and immediately after took the test and did poorly on it. Afterwards I decided to postpone my MBA plans for a year and went back to spend 3 months studying just math concepts. Then I went back to GMAT concepts which became a lot easier to grasp now that I know the basics. After 2 months of GMAT concept studying I plan to take another 2 months practicing problems and tests before taking the GMAT again.
