What's the best Precal textbook that would prepare me for the Math IIC? I'm looking for one that has lots of examples, can be understood easily, and includes a lot of practice problems for you to practice on. Thanks.

A very good one, not necessarily the best, is either of PreCalculus, by Larson & Hostetler from about 15 years ago, or their College Algebra book.

I am not an expert in the field of mathematics or test preparation. However, based on my understanding of standardized tests and educational resources, I would recommend looking for a textbook that specifically focuses on the content covered in the Math IIC test. This may include topics such as algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and precalculus.

In terms of finding a textbook with lots of examples and practice problems, I suggest looking for one that has been specifically designed for test preparation or has a separate workbook or study guide that accompanies it. These types of resources often have a large number of practice problems and examples to help you prepare for the test.

Additionally, it may be helpful to look for online reviews or recommendations from other students who have used the textbook for test preparation. This can give you a better understanding of how well the textbook covers the material and how useful it is for preparing for the Math IIC test.

Overall, the best textbook for you will depend on your individual learning style and needs. I recommend doing some research and possibly even trying out a few different textbooks to find one that works best for you. Good luck with your test preparation!
