<p>I'm trying to find an AP Chemistry book that could in theory be used to self-study for the test. I know there are a few different ones: Barron's, PR, 5 Steps, Peterson's, etc. Which one is the most "complete," or which one contains basically everything you need to know - right now I think Peterson's. If you've self studied, which book did you find the best? I know there are a couple threads like this one, but I didn't really find what I was looking for. </p>
<p>Also, my school doesn't offer AP Chem. One of the books I was reading suggests around 20 labs alongside textbook preparation. If I were to do those labs, would colleges that accept notebooks for lab-credits accept a notebook with those labs? How many labs did you have?</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
