Hello,
I think what he's looking for is a book from NLS.
If I were you I'd look for an intermediate Algebra book on NLS and just go
through the exercises. There are probably books of exercises, so search for
those. Then if you have any questions Google them and you should find the
answer.
Is there a list for blind students in math?
Thanks,
Brandon Keith Biggs

Oh man, this is bad but, originally, they gave me the algebra one, but
they managed to find the arithmetic one. With a calculator, I got a 73
so will prob. be in introduction to algebra, with college math after.
Well they'll give you the tests in braille if you ask, they did for
me.
