| Pre-Calculus Demystified by McGraw-Hill Professional Easing into higher echelons of math has never been so pain-free! |
| It was a great book, gave me what I needed at the pace I found acceptable. I also jumped into the middle of the book once to give a friend a hand and it was on polynomial functions. In ten minutes flat I was already calculating them! Amazing! If I continue at this rate, I can slack off in my Pre-Calculus college class and still pass! No, but seriously though, it's an awesome book and have recommended it to all my friends. |
| Pre-Calculus Demystified by McGraw-Hill Professional Great Entrance Exam Refresher |
I received this book 2 weeks before my college entrance exam to smooth over what I momentarily learned in high school I Do not want to end up in a lower than Calculus math class, paying for a class that does not give me any college credit. So far I have been getting through a chapter each day, in about hour and a half of on and off study.
It is continuing to get me more comfortable with my math skills in a very short time. I Recommend it to anyone who fears there college entrance exam, or interested in learning Precalc on their own. |
| Pre-Calculus Demystified by McGraw-Hill Professional At last. At long last |
I am one of those pathetic cases who should have been a math major, but could not stay awake during the freshman pre-calc lectures conducted by bored and boring grad students. Now, nearly 40 years later I am determined to self-educate my way through calculus.
At first I took a crack at the Wiley "Precalculus A Self Teaching Guide". Holy cripes, what a disaster! Unnerving to find such an improbable number of errors, especially for student picking up after decades of non-study.
Then, I grabbed Rhonda Huettenmeuller's fine work, and am doing the practice at the end of chapter four. I actually remembered some of my advanced algebra and managed to work my way through the problems.
Well written and clear, she provides enough dimensions on problems to give you insight, then gives you room enough to have to think a bit. The answers are all provided, and are *correct*. Well, at least we agree, so that is certainly a good sign.
I especially appreciate how she teaches this from the perspective of tackling calculus as the next step, pointing out issues that particularly apply, and how, to more advanced mathematics.
Now, if we can just get her to write more books... |
| Pre-Calculus Demystified by McGraw-Hill Professional *Superb* Self-Teaching Instrument |
| I applaud Rhonda Huettenmueller and whole heartedly agree with the R. Orchanian review (the New York teacher). The very best available that absolutely takes the mystery out of this area of mathematics. The sequence of the chapters is superb, clear, concise and very, very accurate. It includes process steps that are left out of many *so called* self-teaching guides which leaves many students scratching their head. Just quite simply the very best book written on the subjct, hands down. I hope Ms. Huettenmueller doesn't stop here. |
| Pre-Calculus Demystified by McGraw-Hill Professional Wonderful Book |
| A great help in my Precalculus I class. The information is presented in a better manner than the textbook for the course. |
