Physics GRE Discussion Forums

I'm studying for my Q this summer and I know some schools post past Q exams online for students to practice with. It would be cool to get a bunch of links to practice Q problems all in one place, so if you know of or come across sample Q problems online, post a link here.

For what it's worth, UW-Madison's old quals can be found here. Solutions aren't posted, but some are on a wiki somewhere. I'll try to find the link.

Here is the Qs of UIC
2004 2005 2006 2007 2008

and here from UIUC can be downloaded.

there is this series:

they have nearly all topics. i am not quite sure how good they are. I have the mechanics and QM copy and it helped me with my undergrad stuff, but I heavily depend on examples to learn something

another one:

Here from U of Virginia are some qual questions worked out for Quantum and E/M, so you can compare your answers with the ones given. The first 10 or so might be too easy, but the second half of Quantum ones and later E/M are fairly tough and should be good practice.

This was the link I was referring to, sorry I forgot to put that in the 1st post.

Here's UCSD's page:

http://ucsdquals.wikidot.com/

http://www.phys.psu.edu/graduate/handbook/

Just look to the right of the page. Also, there no solutions that I know of. If you do any of these, please reply on this or another created thread , and we can discuss the answers. Thanks

Stanford's old quals.

Here are some solutions to the tests I linked to earlier.
