Hello everyone.
I am searching for a book full of practice problems in Electricity and Magnetism and was hoping someone could recommend some. I have been searching on my own, but could not find any. I have a classmate who has one from china, where it is pure questions relating to the subject and it comes with solutions on a separate book. These problems are very good, sometimes difficult, and are really good at testing concepts as well, however she always has to translate them, so I would really like something similar for myself. Thank you!

Thanks for the post! Sorry you aren't generating responses at the moment. Do you have any further information, come to any new conclusions or is it possible to reword the post?
 
If you want REALLY tough problems, go for "Problems in General Physics" by IE Irodov.

thank you! I will look into it. I appreciate it.
 
This thread only works as a summary from the original source: List of STEM Masterworks in Physics, Mechanics, Electrodynamics... The original thread got very long and somewhat hard to read so I have compiled the recommendations from that thread in an online (Google Drive) spreadsheet. SUMMARY Permits are granted so you can make comments on the spreadsheet but I'll initially be the only one capable of edition. This is to avoid the possibility of someone deleting everything either by mistake...
By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
