Okay, kids. I’m going to show you a look inside the Before Starting Physics book. Did I download it? Basic Physics—no, I didn’t. Let me download it.
Before Starting Physics is right here.
Just so you know, if you purchase the Triple Play bundle for $99, you get access to around 900 videos of me writing these books.
For those saying, “You used AI,” no—there are about 600 videos of me writing the freaking book. My God.
The first half of Before Starting Physics is literature explaining studying physics and addressing misconceptions to straighten your thinking out.
I explain the differences between high school physics, college physics, and university physics—algebra-based versus calculus-based physics.
Then, around here, I show what you need from algebra, what you might need from trigonometry, and what you might need from calculus.
I go into how to approach problem solving. Here are more calculus-related things connected with what you’ll do.
Toward the end, we get into actual physics problems.
If you’re taking calculus-based physics, you’re not going to do much calculus, if any at all. I show the notation and how it works so it isn’t confusing.
That’s pretty much it. It isn’t a huge book. It’s about 80 textbook-sized pages, at least half written in mathematical code.
If you reduced it to a normal book size, it would be about 160 pages. If you expanded the code, it would be a fairly regular novel-sized book.
If you’re in college, about to begin, or returning to college, it isn’t a long read. It’ll change your life.
It documents what I went through and figured out, what I observed tutoring for 15 years, and what I saw when students used things like Khan Academy, AI, and private tutors and failed.
It’s intended to prevent that. If you’re serious about your education, this literature will reshape your thinking toward success.
That’s the response I’ve received from students who read the How to Study guide and Before Starting Physics. They say, “I’m ready to go. You’re right.”
The Ultimate Crash Course and The Ultimate Cheat Sheet are there to help ensure you understand what you need by junior year.
Cumulatively, it’s about 2,000 pages or something. I don’t know. And hundreds of videos—$99 for all that is a good deal.
I’d say about 900 recordings: around 300 podcasts and 600 or 700 video lessons.
It should be more expensive, but there isn’t a huge market, and interested college students often don’t have much money. I lowered the price significantly and put it into a bundle.
It’s a $99 one-time fee. You receive an access code to my work on this website, including the fiction.
Come to the front page. You can also go to—[unclear website name]—it’s the same thing. It’s $99 for the books and everything.
I tested the pricing, and it is what it is.
Some old cooking shows and other material are here, along with the fiction books. It’s worth the investment. You’ll be entertained and educated for a long time.
Enjoy. I’m moving on to the Math Monthly journal, doing math and physics every day with people and focusing on that.
If you want to develop your knowledge and prepare your résumé, joining the Math Monthly journal research program could be beneficial to your future and a lot of fun.
Thanks for watching. This is—[recording ends].
