Ap computer science self studying time dedication

<p>if you self study ap computer science!when did you start studying? how long did you study per day or week?which book did you use? was it hard? what was you score(don't have to mention it if you don't want to)?i know i asked a lot of questions but i am stressing about the idea of self studying!by the way thanks for you time!</p>

<p>bump! does anybody have some thing to say?</p>

<p>I’m taking the AP CS class at my high school and as far as it is concerned, we pretty much just study at our own pace. At the end of each chapter, the teacher gives us his take on it and then we take a two part test (~40 MC and a programming portion). If you put in a couple of hours a week throughout the year you should be fine. I heard the Barron’s book is good for review, but you should get a real Java textbook as well.</p>

<p>This is the one we use:

<p>thanks for you answer!</p>

<p>Hi, I am promoting something in this post. I have created a Java video tutorial covering the requirements(Java subset) of the AP Computer Science A exam.
It’s made in an easy to follow step by step manner. It’s only 4 hrs long, and every topic is covered in detail.
Every concept is taught using a simple program. There is also a small project to tie everything up.
I have 1.5 hrs of the 4 hr toutorial free at [Java</a> in 4 hrs - Step by Step Video Tutorial - YouTube](<a href=“Java Tutorial for Beginners - Made Easy - Step by Step - YouTube”>Java Tutorial for Beginners - Made Easy - Step by Step - YouTube)
I assure everyone who watches the video, you will ace the AP Computer Science exam or I will refund the money.
Go ahead and give the sample chapters a try.
Take a look at the 16th part class and object just to get a hang of it here [P16</a> Class & Object - Java in 4 hrs step by step - YouTube](<a href=“P16 Class & Object - Java in 4 hrs step by step - YouTube”>P16 Class & Object - Java in 4 hrs step by step - YouTube)
