^ Trig, Ellipse/hyperbole, parametric form, rational functions. (technically more than 3 topics, but ellipses and hyperbole don't really count)

Umm Trig just involved looking at inverse and reciprocal trig functions...I think it mostly worked because they're not complicated topics and because I already knew a fair chunk of it.

Yeah, speaking from experience, it's definitely not that hard to "learn" the first few topics in 2 hours.  In fact, if you really put your mind to it, I reckon you could learn the entire spesh course in about 8 (or even less?) - there's really not all THAT much to the course.

It's most definitely doable.
