[Math] Schaum’s Outlines for self-study

advicelearningphysics

I wish to learn Physics via self-study. I realize that I have a long way to go as far as Mathematics prerequisites: I will need to begin with Precalculus(I took that course many years ago, so I am quite rusty, and I am aware that , at minimum, I will need Multi-variable Calculus.

Would the Schaum's Outlines be sufficient for Mathematics preparation? (I am seriously considering Schaum's, as the series provides lots of solved problems and is the most economical way to go).

Question #2: Would you also recommend the "Demystified" series (Precalculus, Calculus, Advanced Calculus)for me?

Best Answer

Schaum's is excellent. In many cases (not all) it can replace a textbook. It can definitely replace a textbook if you are reviewing something you have already learned (not your case here).
