May 21, 2021 at 22:19 comment added Henry The Cambridge Part III Guide to Courses 2020-21 has suggested literature for each course, though the courses rarely follow a particular book. Past Tripos questions are also available, though the courses change year to year.

May 19, 2021 at 9:42 comment added user676464327 @SamHopkins Well for one, it is nice to have everything in one place; I can also work with one consistent notation/convention. I also think longer "problem books" have more interesting problems, especially towards the end of the list. (Just compare any two undergraduate textbooks on, say abstract algebra.)
May 19, 2021 at 9:40 comment added user676464327 @EFinat-S Sure, but qual exams usually don't go far beyond the "standard graduate topics" I described above. I was hoping there are lists of problems for more advanced topics as well.

May 19, 2021 at 4:54 comment added efs What about solving old phd qualifyling exams from various universities? There is a lot of content online, and not all universities evaluate the same topics.

May 19, 2021 at 3:07 comment added Sam Hopkins What's the advantage of specific "problem books" as opposed to the more traditional exercises within a textbook (which are also common even at the graduate level)?
