What are some recommended resources with good problems (and preferably solutions as well) on Solid State Physics at the level of Kittel? I'm aware of Yung-Kuo Lim's "Problems and Solutions on Solid State Physics, Relativity and Miscellaneous Topics" which has graduate qualifying exam questions. However, I find graduate qualifying problems to lack depth of material and to not stress calculations. I appreciate any recommendations.

Thanks!

Hi, definitely the best book is the solid state Kittel, however for your pretensions, here I recommend two good texts with many proposed and solved exercises. They hope you find them helpful. Greetings.
