College Math Workbooks?
I'm trying to prep myself for my college placement test as well as get a good refresher in math from highschool to college level.
All areas of math really, can you reccomend any useful workbooks? I'm not interested in online support or ebooks as the information does not stick as well. Best answer = Lgg.
I can just recommend you the Calculus textbook my college uses. I can even send you a PDF of it.
I don't know what answer you are expecting in saying online resources are excluded. That pretty much just leaves every-generic-college-textbook-on-the-matter ever. Which not like anyone would be able to say which is best, since most people only deal with a handful in their life.
Online, I would recommend Khan Academy.
If you're obsessed for some reason (I'd say your obsession is misplaced) with not using online resources, let me know if you want the PDF, and I can send it.
You can try an SAT math workbook?
Not if he's trying to learn college-level math.
Which is a weird thing to expect on a college placement test.
But if you take a GRE practice exam, it covers college expectations of pre-college mathematics. I was actually surprised by how little math they expect you to be able to do on grad-school entrance exams. So I imagine it is more than enough for a college-level one.
It is pretty much geometric and algebraic principles. I don't even think there was trig in it. Most shockingly, there was absolutely no calculus.
