AP Human Geography

<p>I was looking for a prep book for AP Human Geography on here and everyone seemed to recommend Barron's. I went to Amazon and there are several different editions of it. There is one for 13 cents, which I assume is for the old edition of the test. There is also one for $2.87, which seems too cheap, but it was published in 2010. </p>

<p>Amazon.com:</a> Barron's AP Human Geography (9780764143724): Meredith Marsh, Peter S. Alagona: Books</p>

<p>Is this the correct book?</p>

<p>Never mind, after searching a little more on here people were recommending PR.</p>

<p>Nope. You want Barron’s. I used both this year and PR had all the information BUT it also had a ton of unnecessary information. Use Barron’s and maybe consider Barron’s flashcards which were a big help. Used that and got a 5.</p>

<p>No, you want Princeton Review. Barrons alone does not cover the real world examples that are found on the test and has a lot of superfluous information that is not needed for the test. Believe me, Barrons book is just for passing. Princeton Review should get you a 5. The Barrons flashcards are a bit of help, but totally dont use the book. Get PR.</p>

<p>Did you take the test this year? What real-world examples did you use?</p>

<p>Get both! When I took my AP exam I used PR, Barrons, 5 step to a 5, and another book my teacher gave me. I used all those books for mainly practice tests. I would have to say that PR has really easy MC questions.</p>

<p>^Very excessive, especially considering you had a class!</p>

<p>Had a class, but teacher didn’t teach well. Used barrons, which didn’t help much either.</p>

<p>No, its better to overstudy. It’s not a lot of time spent to do all the test in those books.</p>

<p>In other words, if you have a life, use Barron’s. If not, buy the whole library.</p>

<p>Used an old version of Barron’s this year - got a 5. (self-study)</p>

<p>Just saying.</p>

<p>I used the 2010 version</p>
