EPTSo my question is: are there any websites or good books that I can start to prepare? I want to prepare before actually starting to study it!
Where to learn some math?

The first examn for the masters of science program is this: http://wiki.math.ntnu.no/_media/tma4100/kont10.pdf I don't understand a THING right now  (it's in norwegian, but hopefully you will still get a picture on how hard it is)Are there any place where I can find tasks to do? Math is much like an instrument, you must do it to learn, so I'm planning on finding some tasks to do, then use the websites you have provided and solve them | ||

It will be VERY hard to learn on your own. You will have to solve MANY MANY problems (think homework) to start to understand. Figure 1-2 years to get a good grasp. I strongly recommend taking a university calculus course. The MIT OpenCourseware makes for good supporting material. | ||

Alright, well, next autumn I will probably start a pre-course with math for two semesters, then, if I get accepted, I will start my masters of science degree, so I got quite some time to learn it. Me and my old math teacher usually go out and drink beer every now and then, I'll probably start asking him math questions now | ||

Try to get your math teacher friend to give you a few one-on-one classes. He should be able to guide you in the right path. If you sit down with a good textbook and think and solve problems for an hour a day in your free time, you will have a huge head start when you start taking a real course. There is no substitution however for actual teaching. | ||

7 12 * 2 (the *2 is in the middle, so you have to * both of them). I thought it was just to make it 14/24, but the answer sheet says it's 7 6 | ||
