What should I expect? Any tips for studying?

you're welcome

Is this book for students who have never seen a rigorous proof in their life or is it still a good supplement either way?
>>9073388
it's not for freshmen. Well technically you could read as a freshman and still get some insight of course but it's a preparatory book for analysis, with tips for studying analysis which is what you literally asked for.
So...

my fav entry analysis book is Understanding Analysis by Abott, if you are struggling in the course check it out.

Open sets are your friend. (They always give you some "wiggle" room)
You'll see epsilon-delta definition of continuity perhaps.
Bolzano-Weierstrass
Heine-Borel
Different types of convergence criteria (Cauchy criteria (proves convergence but doesn't say to what value) vs. limit approaching some fixed L (guessed or given))
Subtle changes to quantifiers yield completely different definitions. (pointwise convergence of a seq of functions vs uniform convergence of seq of functions)
You'll learn when you can change the order of limiting operations. (Sums&Sums, Sums&Integrals, Integrals&Integrals, etc.)
Also a lot of counter-examples to intuition. (These are very helpful to keep in mind)
The subtleties of the force, young Padawan, you'll learn.

I did both semesters of Advanced Calculus using
"An Introduction to Analysis" by William R. Wade
Graduate level (as undergrad btw) Real Analysis using
Rudin, Royden, and Nagy

THIS. The problems beat my fucking ass, but if you take your time, this book will help you exponentially
