What is a good book for reviewing high school math, and preparing for university?

826 Views Asked by At

I'm signing up for University soon (Compsci program) as a mature student. It's been a long time since I've done any math, and I went as far as grade 11 in high school. So, I'm looking for a book that will review the essentials of high school math, starting from the basics, and prepare me for Uni.

Any recommendations? I know many of you recommended "Mathematics: Its Content, Methods and Meaning" in the past, but I'm not sure if it's beginner-friendly. Perhaps I should buy one of those GED preparation books?

One book that's really great is Serge Lang - Basic Mathematics. It's an algebra/trig book that is written like you're intelligent. It's written in the same style as more serious books.
