I'm getting ready to take the GRE in November, and I'm trying to teach myself at least a little bit of the quantum that we haven't reached in class yet. I'm using Griffiths, and we've covered the first two chapters.
What specific topics should I look at? (keeping in mind I'm just trying to learn as much as I can in the next two weeks.)
Any advice would be appreciated.
Quantum Preparations
From what I've seen of the practice text you need chapters 1 to 5, and the first few sections of 6(plus god knows what else that they randomly pick out of the rest of the book - I've seen the odd question from the later chapters, but the majority of the material can be found in the first 6). Most notably, the sections in chapter 4 on the hydrogen atom and spin systems. The systems most commonly in the practice tests were the infinite well, the harmonic oscillator and the hydrogen atom - so make sure you know those three. Taking it in a few weeks though, so who knows whats on it :p
