For first year core courses, they don't use much math actually. What u need is: Linear algebra+calculus+intro probablity+intro stats+a little analysis+a little ODE+comfortable working with math/logic things+economis intuition then you're ok. And the absolute difficulty level is lower than the typical real analysis course(I mean the content, not the test. real analysis tests are always easy. Prof cant fail the whole class
). Not sure about high level courses, but if you want to concentrate on finance. I think high level probability like brownian motion is necessary which means u have to be familar with measure and PDE.

if u'r not feeling tired after work now, I think you can do it. And u don't need to study calculus first in order to study analysis. Analysis course will build everything from axioms.
