Links

 

Student:    So I see you have a links page.  Where do these links link to?

Brent:       Every link on this page links to a study guide that I actually recommend, and have viewed myself.  Many of the links are to pages that I actually learned from.

Student:    Cool.  What if I know of another link that you should put on here to a great study guide website.

Brent:        Then feel free to tell me.  You can email me at:

 

 

                and let me know of a link you would like to see posted on this webpage.  I’m always willing to check out a link, and I’d say chances are I’ll put it up here if it’s relevant at all.  I’m always taking suggestions, and over time I’d like to make this list of links as long as possible.

Student:    Are these links to free sites or are these links to people selling study guides.

Brent:        Well, both really.  And for each link I’ll state whether they are strictly selling a product or giving away at least some stuff for free.  Now bear in mind that the best stuff you usually pay for.  Creating a study guide on any subject is enough work that the creators usually want to be reimbursed for their efforts.  But I don’t link to any paid product that I don’t think is at least worth considering or looking at, so rest assured that this is all quality stuff.

Student:    Okay, great.  I’ll check it out!

Brent:        Have fun.

 

 

www.sparknotes.com – this website has quite a bit of free material as well as paid material.  Basically, they take books ranging from elementary to advanced subjects and strip them down of all the fluff.  What’s left behind is like an easy to understand quick reference to the subject.

 

chemistry.about.com – this website has so much good stuff for free that I’m almost losing business by providing a link to it.  Great website on chemistry knowledge.

 

www.cramster.com – quite a bit of free stuff as well as paid stuff on all sorts of subjects.  I really like how they have practice tests.

 

www.mychemistrytutor.com – a variety of chats and forums in real time with real tutors, some free some paid.  A good miscellany of other products related to college learning.

 

www.thinkwell.com – although this website has entirely paid video tutorials that come at a price, the products on this website are well worth every penny.  The videos are highly professional with professional instructors that seem like they must have auditioned to get their jobs.  Highly recommended!

 

Canada Science and Technology Museum – an interesting museum in Ottowa, Ontario Canada.
