Seller's Description:
Good. Quarter leather/green cloth binding. Penciled annotations throughout. Else VG. THAT any single work on Algebra will contain all that may be demanded for admission to all the colleges is hardly to be expected. Yet many secondary schools are preparing pupils for several colleges, and to secure good results teachers must know the demands of all. For several of the colleges a very thorough training is necessary, and success cannot be secured without careful preparation and a great deal of practice in written work. For Harvard the requirement in Algebra was very greatly increased about 1878, and since that time it has stood at this high standard. Any applicant who undertakes these Harvard papers without having been thoroughly trained by written examinations-limited in time as at the actual examination-is almost sure to fail. This book contains the admission papers in Algebra of several leading colleges, and thus affords an opportunity for a comparison of requirements in Algebra that has never been given before. Here are over a thousand examples that have been given as tests by these colleges. No better list for practice can be found. 118 pages.
