<p>What books would you guys recommend as being good to study from for Physics C Mechanics, BC Calc, and Chemistry? My computer science teacher has told us to buy the Barron's book (which I have), but none of my other teachers have made any suggestions.
Also, what books would you say are NOT good?</p>
<p>Barrons for all of the tests that you mentioned
PR is also good (though not as good) for Phys C and Calc BC
Petersens is also good (but again not as good) for Chemistry
Cliffs is good for Calc and kinda ok for Phys C.
5 Steps is ok for Phys C.</p>
<p>I own all of those books and that’s what I got out of them. I just rated them relative to each other with good books being better than ok books.</p>

<p>It’s a thread full of peoples’ suggestions for AP books. From what I’ve read, PR seems to be a decent choice for all of what you’ve listed. Although, you might want to get Barron’s as a supplement (but be warned that their books are generally more difficult than the competition) for physics/chem. Calc, I’ve also heard a lot of good things about [Amazon.com:</a> Be Prepared for the AP Calculus Exam: Books: Mark Howell,Martha Montgomery](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Be-Prepared-AP-Calculus-Exam/dp/0972705554]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/Be-Prepared-AP-Calculus-Exam/dp/0972705554).</p>
