A decent study aid

This book is not as useful to me as the Major American Universities Ph.D. Qualifying Questions and Solutions books, however it still provides adequate examples of problems in most of the major disciplines within the field of physics. The book is organized such that the problems are presented in the first ~half of the book, and the rest of the book is dedicated to detailed solutions. I would prefer that problems and solutions be printed together on the same page, however this setup is satisfactory.

Excellent Qual Exam Prep

This book provides excellent qualifying exam preparation. The book is a book of qual exam problems organized by subject. Solutions are provided at the end. I found it very well organized and very helpful in getting past the qualifying exams. I first went through the "Review of Undergraduate Physics" by Hamermesh to get myself up to speed, then hit this book. It was great preparation for the real thing. I am now buying both books for my students.
