Pefgjk,
I can answer a couple of them - I didn't take advanced optics or thermodynamics. By all accounts, from what I've read from other scholars, kleppner is a great book for mechanics (i've never used it but the general consensus will likely steer you correctly).
I used Griffiths for...
I'm not sure if you're interested in Advanced Placement books - but they are the only level that I can really speak to. I took AP Bio, AP Chem, AP Physics C, and Calculus BC in high school and thought these books were great books.
For AP Biology, Campbell Biology (any recent edition) is the...
Any of the following textbooks would be of good use - all are calculus-based physics texts for engineering (will be basic for you). Volume 1 is all that you need. I used Knight to self-study for the AP Physics C exams and Young/Freedman was the textbook used for our calculus-based physics...
For Semester 1 & 2, the curriculum is that of the US AP Chemistry curriculum.
I took AP Chemistry and found the following textbook to be very useful.
Kotz and Treichel (used in high school class) - very good book. Here's a sample syllabus that shows the complete coverage of the course...
I second what Verty wrote above. I would recommend Thomas Calculus. We used it in high school and it was comprehensive. It lists out all the theorems and examples are very detailed and thought-provoking. It is also used in half of the Ivy League schools (the other half use Stewart I believe). I...
I would recommend Thomas Calculus. We used it in high school and it was comprehensive. It lists out all the theorems and examples are very detailed and thought-provoking. It is also used in half of the Ivy League schools (the other half use Stewart I believe). I was able to get a 5 on the BC...
I used Physics for Scientists and Engineers by Randall Knight. I've heard great things about Young and Freedman. Based on most amazon reviews, Tipler is middle of the road. I used Knight to study for engineering physics exemption exams (self-study) and I passed both Mechanics and E&M (somehow)...
AP Physics 1+2 are largely algebra-based and I would recommend College Physics by Geller & Young (used in high school, received a "5" on AP Physics B test). Another strong alternative is Serway/Vuille.
AP Physics C is calculus-based and Halliday/Resnick is a great book for that (regular version...
