Brushing up your maths
One of the topics I wanted to cover here was new students entering college. It’s a tough time for us and with most students taking next to nothing of value their senior year, thats almost a year with no review of your math skills. I wanted to take the time to outline a few resources for reviewing your basic algebra skills before you take your placement tests.
- College Algebra with Applications, 2e
- Principles of Elem. Algebra with Applications,2e
- Principles of Intermediate Algebra with App.,2e
- A First Course in Linear Algebra
These are just a few resources to get you started. One of the sad things about public schools that I remember was not getting to keep my books. Who wouldn’t want to have such resources. Giving them back was always hard.
