What is the best way to study for the Math 2c? What books are the best to study and are worth the money? thanx

I suggest the following book and/or related apparatuses:


TI 89 Graphing Calculator
TI-89 Manual (the thick one, not the thin sh1t they give you for 89/92 in one)

Does this help?

yes that is it. i studied barrons like an idiot, and none of that was on the test. It is REALLY EASY. Just know some basic trig stuff and law of sines and cosines. Thats prob the hardest thing, and remember you can miss like 7 and get 800.

there are two 89 manuals?

Anyways, study Barrons and/or a good pre-calc text book

Well, back in the day, the 89 used to come with a big thick "TI-89" manual. Now, you have to purchase it separately. The only thing u get when u buy an 89 now is a thin, crappy "TI-89/92" (two in one) manual.

Where can you get a copy of the thick manuel? The calc I bought came with the weak 89/92+ one...

you can get it online, at ti.com/calc or something like that.
