In summary, the person is working on reviewing problems from a large book for a test and is looking for a list of problems to help save time. They are currently only doing chapters 1-14 but would like to do more in the future. The conversation also includes a mention of how long it has been since the person was in high school and how long they have been using the platform where the conversation took place.

I'm working with this huge book trying to review some problems so I can take a test. So far (I'm on chapter 7) I've just been doing the odd problems but sometimes that can be a pain because there's at least 25-30 per chapter and they take a long time to do sometimes. So I was wondering if anyone has a 'problem set' list that they used during their class with this book. It's not a big deal, but it would help cut down some of the time that it takes to go through a chapter. Surprisingly, there's nothing posted on any university's website listing the problems they do for the class.

At the moment I'm only doing Chapters 1 - 14 or so but later chapters would be helpful too. I'm just looking to do some of basic 1st semester problems to make sure that I understand the concepts.

It is unclear why you are choosing to do this. It would be useful to know

I hadn't yet entered high school (10-12) when this post was made. It's been over a decade since I left HS. Crazy to think PF was around then.

But, Jesuslovesu hasn't been active in nearly ten years.

If you think that's crazy I can top it: I've been on the planet for the alotted 3 score and 10 years. Now that's totally insane !
