<p>So....we're a month away from AP exams, and I've only read two chapters for my Government book...my teacher hasn't assigned us any chapters, or given any tests, so...I definitely don't feel prepared. I tried reading some from my government textbook today, and I realized that there is no way I get through that whole book without wanting to shoot myself...sooooooooooooooooooooo</p>
<p>Is it possible to get a 4 or 5 studying only from an AP guide? And which one is best??</p>
<p>Last year, the Barron’s book also made me want to shoot myself. There were like, freaking walls of text. And NO indents. D:<</p>
<p>But anyway, since you’re short on time, I would use PR or even Cliffs (I’ve heard pretty good reviews about PR, so I’d go with that). I waited until the last 2 weeks to self-study gov’t last year, and so I abandoned the Barron’s and used Cliffs because it was MUCH shorter. I got a 5. So yes, it is definitely possible to use only a study guide and get a 4 or 5. Good luck (:</p>
