An excellent overview of physics for Qualifying Exam Prep

I used this book when I prepared for the qualifying exams. It is an excellent review to get you back up to speed in an organized way on all of the topics covered... Gets you ready for Cronin's "University of Chicago Graduate Problems in Physics, with solutions" The two make a great team. I am now buying them for my students.


Good for grad school reference as well...

I used this book to prepare for both my comprehensives and qualifiers. Partial solutions are offered in most cases--always a plus for those seeking self-study. I felt that some of the exercises were above the level of an undergraduate's curriculum, but that just makes it a better graduate school reference.

It's Okay.

I'm not as wild about this book as some of the other reviewers. The E&M section is in CGS, which is a big bummer. I found the best review for the qualifier was to just do lots of physics problems for 3 months prior to taking it, and look things up as necessary using the physics books that I was already familiar with.


It may be good but

it is priced at a sum that a prince can afford. How is it possible to have so much greed in publishing a review on undergrad physics is beyond me. Criminals!!
