I come on bended knee...

[Mori]

I really do hate to do this, but I'm desperate.

Because of a school scheduling error, I am very far behind in my music theory classes.

If I want to graduate on time, I have to take the theory placement tests, which means self-teaching.

So, if anyone knows of websites, or books, or even has study materials or syllabi from their own courses, I would truly appreciate it!

Thanks in advance!

That's all I know about. I know there's quite a bit of elementary stuff, but there's a few things that could be useful. Best of luck to you!

Try www.musictheory.net. It has some pretty good stuff.

Try to find textbooks and workbooks at the library or buy a book and new workbook online (I recommend Tonal Harmony highered.mcgraw-hill.com/sites/0072852607/student_view0/workbook_assignment_templates.html (you will need Finale to view the worksheets, but Finale Notepad is well worth having if you don't have it already). Read the chapter, make an outline of important concepts (i.e. know the definitions and examples of the bolded words), and practice putting the theory to use. Once you get to the point of knowing enough to be able to do chordal analyses of pieces, start with some simple 3-part pieces, go to 4-part, and eventually work your way to symphonies.
I would strongly recommend also working on aural training, which musictheory.net is a good one for, as well as Ear Trainer www.good-ear.com/servlet/EarTrainer. Begin to make connections between the theory and what it sounds like.
