Self-studying math and science

Post Reply New Topic

Any good sites/e-books I can use?
I've graduated from high school last year and I'm starting to 'miss' some classes I don't have in college anymore
I've had math in high school where we've seen the basics of statistics, algebra, etc. And I've had science at school for 4 years. So I think I need sites where they start from the beginning.

Here are some cool websites that might help:

http://www.math.com/ - includes Basic, Prealgebra, Algebra, Calculus, etc.
http://www.science.gov/ - this is a U.S. Government website, but it can still help you with your science work.

Try Khan Academy, and then Paul's Online Math Notes.

I can vouch for Math.com I've been using it to brush up on my math for the last few days and I'm already about 75% through algebra. So far math.com > every math teacher I've ever had. However, keep in mind that my "clashes" with math teachers came in part due to me having the attitude "If the answer is right, who cares how I got there".

Don't use Systime books we use them at my college and they suck!
We found 15 errors on one page in a mathbook >.<

As soon as you get stuck, you'll know what you need to look up on the maths side. Brought me to a much higher level in months.
