Hi;

You took it? Or you will take it?


In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Re: Chennai Mathematics Institute Exams

Algebra was not the best.
Programming and Analysis went great.
Classical Mechanics wasn't bad either.

Did you check out the problems?

Have you seen the book named "Visual Group Theory"?

Nope, the Budden book nearly killed me. I swore I would never touch that field again.

There was a bit about Polya theory and something they called Zyklens. Had some gf's in it too.
