"Getting back up to speed with Calculus", I went back to school after a 8 year break, and was very worried that my calculus would be a long forgotten skill. Between this book and forgotten calculus, I returned to school confident that I was not going to be blindsided by applied calculus.

"A good PRACTICE guide - not a way to first learn the topic.... ", I bought this book and several others to help my daughter with her AP calculus. Along those lines, this book is not very useful as the AP examiners have gone off and deviated from the traditional bread and butter calculus topics (volumes of revolution, techniques of integration, related rates, max/min/inflection points, etc.). They have fallen in love with calculating averages, the fundmaental theorem of calculus, and their calculators (see my other reviews). So if your buying this book for that purpose, it won't really help as this book covers only traditional techniques and topics without the need of a calculator.

HOWEVER, for a supplement to traditional class material, this is a great book. I agree with the prior reviewers that this is not a book that will teach you calculus from the start - you need to already know how to take a derivative and integrate, what is meant by a volume of revolution, related rate, and so forth. However, if you want EXCELLENT scores, practice is the key and this book gives you a lot of practice. After a while, you will realize that there are only so many variations on a particular topic that can be tested and they keep coming up over and over again (I orginally took calculus in the 1980's and ran across the same problems).

In summary, if you need to first learn the basics of the material, this book is not for you. If you already know the basics and want practice on the bread and butter topics, this is an excellent way to do so. I doubt that your instructor will give you problems not covered in some fashion in this book.

"Be very careful!", If you want a reference book, this ain't it. Nor a textbook. You must understand the concepts before you even open the volume. It would then be a great help in applying your knowledge to real-world problems.

I say, "would" because the numerous typos and mistakes make it a dangerous tool to use. Some errors are obvious (if annoying), some will mislead and puzzle you and some, well... just pray.

I give it a three because it may still be useful. Just be careful how you use it!

"Save your money", Every year a new class of desperate students buy into the Schaum no-help books. Save your money or try Michael Kelley.

"Not Much Better Than a Solutions Manual", I purchased this for a Calculus II course because the book I had had some rather challenging problems. I bought it because I thought it was going to be exhaustive in its solutions. Unfortunately this was not the case. Some problems in calculus require less explanation that others. For this book however essentially all are given the same weight. Because of this you are left with a "how in the world did they come up with that?" type of feeling at the end of the problem. It is a good book however and the sheer number of problems solved is helpful when you have very specific things in your homework you need to see. Also there are general lessons on the topic before each chapter. This is a good resource but should be used in conjunction with other calculus books.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"A good supplement", This is a very good book, the contents are cleanly and easily accessible, actually the second page. The problems are plenty and of all levels. This is my first supplement for calculus and I must say the book should be used after you do textbook problems or if you can't do basic textbook problems, it's a good help to get you started. There are two downfalls to the books: 1) Basic elementary proofs take up a page or two in some very short sections, these things can EASILY be found in the appendix of a textbook. 2) The book shows steps, but may sometimes think you understood a step, this can cause hell and take time to figure out, though rare, but still annoying. 3) Lack of explanation, this only happend to me in one section the Related Rates section, the beginning was easy but from the middle it was hell. But I still gave this book a 5 because it is a very good supplment

"good concept but book falls short", This book sounds like a great idea, and to a student considering whether to get this or a more traditional book, I would recommend a book like The Complete Idiot's Guide to Calculus by W. Michael Kelley.

You will probably have plenty of problems at your disposal in a calc class, so ones from Schaums don't necessarily correlate to what the professor is teaching. Furthermore there are many steps, but not always enough, and no explanations. I think it would be better to have 1000 problems with discussion rather then 3000 crammed in tiny print with bad formatting. That's the final qualm with this book, it is printed on poor quality paper and the ink is thick and the print is small and really crammed in there. Not what you need when there are so many sub and super scripts.

"More like Crapulus...", It was funny, but not ha-ha funny...

"Got me through Calculus 2!", This book is a fabulous reference to problems I had to work through. I was failing calculus 2 up until the final. I decided to get my buns in gear and buy a few books to help me along. I purchased this book along with The Idiots Guide to Calculus and, no lie, I passed the class with a C instead of the F I was receiving. Very Helpful I'd recommend it to any Calc student in need of help!

"OSP - Only Solved Problems", Its very helpful book for students who enrolled in Calculus I and II courses (No matter whether high school or college courses).
I had Calculus I and II. This book really helped me alot to get higher (even the highest) grades.
But why I gave it 4 stars not 5?
I'm enrolled in Calculus III for this semester. I realized it does not help me at Calculus III as I expected (It's an excellent choice for calculus I and II though).

This book contains a plenty of helpful questions for those students who learn math better by examples.

I suggest every student, who has this book, to keep it as second reference. Students should read through their classroom textbook, understand the matter, do their homewroks, then refer to this textbook as an extra material for solving a plenty of problems.
Solving math problems through this textbook will help you to wash any difficulty/ambiguity away (Sometimes math students don't understand math by wordy text but by solved examples that illustrate the case and make things clearer through solving.) This book really up to it.

Its an excellent choice for CalcI&II just go for it and don't even give it a second thought.
