Hello there,
So I’m sort of self studying AP Physics (I’m taking an “Accelerated Physics” class but it’s not AP curriculum. So, after seeing the difficulty of this exam, I decided to start reading OpenStax’s AP Physics textbook. It seems like a lot, and I was just wondering if anyone that has taken the exam could look at the table of contents in the pdf and tell me which chapters to read.
Here’s the link:

Thanks a lot!
Oops, forgot to mention, I’m would be taking the Physics 1 exam.
Hey. I am taking AP Physics 1 next year too and I am also taking AP Physics in school next year.
To study by yourself, get Barrons and Princeton Review and start your studying early in the summer because the exam is very difficult. The textbook seems helpful for concepts. As a part of your daily process, read a lesson or two and make sure you try every math problem and exercises.
Dan Fullerton has his own helpful AP Physics workbook. Try all the problems and exercises you could find in the book and online. Then review with the prep books.
Good luck!
Thanks! I have a prep book, and i’ve been looking at both the textbook and the prep book everyday. The concepts seem pretty manageable to understand, and ive been watching khan academy to also help. Ill check out those Dan Fullerton videos you mentioned.
