Ap Art History?

<p>I am taking it in my school and still have time to drop out. the teacher does not know anything and the book is HUGE.. should i take it, if yes.. please tell me which supplement books i can buy to get a 5 on the exam. I currently have "Gardners art through the ages(12th edition)".</p>

<p>The book is filled with pictures, thats why its so large...</p>

<p>bump.................</p>

<p>I took ap art history independently last year and finished the last 5 chapters a week before the exam, but... I still got a 5. there really isn't an ap art history review book, but you can use The Annotated Mona Lisa, which is pretty good, but I forgot the author's name</p>

<p>That book is huge!!!!! I have it for online art history, but it's a class you can definately teach yourself. If the teacher guides you (like tells you what to read and such), you should be fine.</p>

<p>actually, REA finally made an AP Art History supplement...that yellowish goldenrod book i think....it came out this year and i saw it at barnes and noble</p>

<p>Yeah just ordered that REA book online. ill post back if i find it any good. The reviews on the book look nice.</p>

<p>I just found another book on AP Art History, has anyone tried it and should i order it aswell?</p>

<p>its AP Art History by Barrons.</p>

<p>Go for Barron's AP Art History!!</p>

<p>I took AP Art History this year, and the author was my teacher. Needless to say, I got a 5. </p>

<p>He was an incredibly knowledgeable man, who had taught us EVERYTHING that appeared on the exam. Even though we didn't remember most of it, we were completely positive that we had seen it before, and trust me- thats really reassuring...</p>

<p>Gardner's was the textbook we used as well. Its unnecessary to read it to the point of memorization, but I strongly suggest you use it, mostly because you're teaching yourself. The book really is 'readable' and only a bit unweildy at times. </p>

<p>Best of luck!!</p>

<p>I am confused about choosing REA or BARRONS. ATM im thinking of buying both.</p>
