About the Author Robert B. Scott is a Senior Lecturer with CNRS Chaire d'Excellence at the University of Western Brittany, France, where he specialises in introductory general relativity, special relativity and geophysical fluid dynamics and turbulence. Learning Outcomes: Students who complete this course will have a basic understanding of differential geometry, a thorough understanding of special relativity, Einstein's equation, and several known solutions to Einstein's equation including black holes and solutions for the expanding universe. 8.962: General relativity by Professor Scott A. Hughes. MIT has a one semester course in general relativity, which I have taught several times. My personal spin on this topic is to spend half of the course focused on the formal mathematical framework (not getting too sophisticated, just making sure to carefully develop differential geometry well enough that all the important curvature tensors General Relativity and Cosmology Abstract This comprehensive student manual has been designed to accompany the leading textbook by Bernard Schutz, A First Course in General Relativity, and uses detailed solutions, cross-referenced to several introductory and more advanced textbooks, to enable self-learners, undergraduates and postgraduates to master general relativity through problem solving.

I suppose you can also find solutions to many of these problems in books or A First Course in General Relativity, by Bernard F. Schutz is an excellent book 

So don’t make the mistake of reading this solution manual like a novel or recipe book thinking you’ve bypassed the practice sessions. Schutz’s First Course in GENERAL RELATIVITY has a lot of exercises (338 in fact), many more than most of the other textbooks at that level. Do them! ``A first course in general relativity'', Bernard F Schutz, Cambridge University Press, 1985, 400 pages.

8.962 is MIT's graduate course in general relativity, which covers the basic principles of Einstein's general theory of relativity, differential geometry, experimental tests of general relativity, black holes, and cosmology. A First Course in General Relativity Bernard F Schutz (2 nd Edition, Cambridge University Press, 2009) Solutions to Selected Exercises (Version 1.0, November 2009) To the user of these solutions: This document contains solutions to many of the Exercises in the second edition of A First Course in General Relativity. The first quarter is intended to be offered every year and may be taken independently of the second quarter. The second quarter will be offered in alternate years. Topics covered in the first quarter include special relativity, differential geometry, the equivalence principle, the Einstein field equations, and experimental and observational tests of gravitation theories. A First Course in General Relativity Second Edition Clarity, readability, and rigor combine in the second edition of this widely used textbook to provide the first step into general relativity for undergraduate students with a minimal background in mathematics.

The course began relatively slowly, and picked up pace toward the end. The homeworks reflect this. The main course textbook was Bernard Schutz' A First Course in General Relativity and a few of the homework problems came from the text. All Solutions .
