You should be able to find plenty, with solutions and answers.

Tensor Analysis for Physicists by JA Schouten

Tensor calculus by JL Synge and A Schild
http://books.google.com/books?id=SjKoMuMdB4oC (the preview is messed up.. it seems mashed up with a book on hieroglyphics)

The above books are written by relativists who were among to first emphasize the geometrical structure of relativity.


A useful exercise is to derive the standard form of Maxwell Equations from the Electromagnetic Field Tensor.

 

I used this book in my undergrad. I loved it. It does not cover a lot of topics, but whatever it does is very need and clear to be understood by an average undergrad. Its really well written
