<p>Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.</p>

<p>AP CHEM
-I have Brown/Lemay textbook
-Princeton Review (I really like it so far. Did you guys find this really helpful when you took the exam?)
-Any other suggestions? Barrons? I've heard Barrons is really easy to understand. How's the review section? How's the practice questions? How similar is it to PR?</p>

<p>AP MACRO
-My teacher didn't suggest a book yet. So I really need one!
-Barrons or PR? Any others? I'm also taking the Micro exam since my teacher is basically teaching us both ..is there a good book that covers both? </p>

<p>AP EURO
-teacher made us get CLiffsAP. Is that good at all? How are the practice tests? I've never heard of anyone using Cliffs for Euro..
-Should I get another one? PR? REA? Barrons? </p>

<p>AP CALC
-Worth getting a practice book for? Or just do CollegeBoard free response problems..review concepts..etc. What prep book is good for this one? (I find it strange to take a MATH AP exam..haha...because it seems like the only thing you could do to prepare is practice..how else do you study for math??)</p>

<p>APLAC
-Had to get CliffsAP.
-Anything else? I'm looking for a book with really good practice tests/questions because that's all I plan on doing to prepare for this exam.</p>

<p>I'm a junior and this is the first year we are allowed to take so many AP classes. For instance, most sophomores take a maximum of 1 AP class (history)..rarely do sophomores take 2. So this is my first year that I'm studying for so many AP exams so I would love to get some feedback on this!! Thank you all in advance!</p>

<p>I can tell you about AP chem.
Brown/Lemay book is very nice...The PR book is also okay but I would suggest that you buy Barrons as well...It is much more in-depth and prepares you for the final exam. It most certainly raises the bar above and beyond the level of PR....</p>

<p>Yeah I like the Brown/Lemay book but it doesn't seem to go into much depth about anything. Just the general idea..</p>

<p>I'm just afraid Barrons will have all this stuff that won't be on the AP exam..and that the practice tests will be crazy hard and impossible to do. Does Barrons include realistic AP questions?? I'm really not worried about the final exam....just the AP test!</p>
