There's no such thing as too much practice. This reproducible program builds skills incrementally. By inviting students to "show what they know" in a variety of new formats, these stimulating lessons will enable struggling students to actually enjoy the learing process. As in all of the binder programs, the dual emphasis is on (1) mastery of the basics and (2) improved critical thinking. more...

This book contains a selection of more than 500 mathematical problems and their solutions from the PhD qualifying examination papers of more than ten famous American universities. The problems cover six aspects of graduate school mathematics: Algebra, Topology, Differential Geometry, Real Analysis, Complex Analysis and Partial Differential Equations. The depth of knowledge involved is not beyond the contents of the textbooks for graduate students, while solution of the problems requires deep understanding of the mathematical principles and skilled techniques. For students this book is a valuable complement to textbooks; for lecturers teaching graduate school mathematics, a helpful reference. more...
