Transition from High school to University

Name: Anonymous 2009-05-03 21:09

Hello /sci/

I am about to transition from high school to university and would like some reading that would help me prepare for a first year engineering or general sciences course.

Preferably chemistry or physics since I am missing a few courses in those subjects but they will let me squeak by because of my marks.

Any suggestions welcome, just not SICP.
(If you were going to suggest that get back to /prog/)

Yeah, the only time I needed the calculator was for the free response questions. I had the integration forms memorized a while back.

My TI-89 is essentially a useless lump, and the biggest tech-related waste of my money ever. MATLAB or Mathematica are far more powerful and more versatile if I ever wanted to do some computation. As a senior about to get an engineering bachelor's, I've used my TI-89 pretty much only for basic arithmetic.
