Second the OCW suggestion. But really, there are a lot of good just basic Physics books out there that will tell you what you want. Check out your library, ask your high school for what they use for their AP class if they have one, and if you have a local university check out their library. Study the 8.022 stuff if you want to be a real man. Also - check out the 18.022 stuff (under mathematics). Physics and calc go together like peas and carrots and you HAVE to be strong in calc to handle E&M. I took 18.022 and 8.022 at the same time and learned everything I needed to know for 18.022 the first week of 8.022. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks. I'm also interested in Calc & Theory (18.014), since I've only gone up to Calc 2 so far. I'll probably do that and start with basic Physics first and see how I progress. I don't want to schedule too much because I have other stuff to do also, and I doubt I'm ready to dive straight into 8.022. I might start reinforcing all the classes I take with MIT's lectures to get more theoretical understanding. |

Originally '08 - took a year off so technically '09 right now, but it looks like I'll probably graduate next year anyway so back to '08.

So I'm guessing you're 18 by the sn - are you in 702 perchance? It's predominantly sophomores right now so odds are you're not if you're graduating next year but I'll take a shot.
