<p>OK what is it with all this people worrying about next year's AP's? Just chill.</p>
<p>wel, some people are really smart (like most of the CC people here i guess :P)
but some of us need to be really hardworking to get the grades they want.
so yea, i would want to do some preparation in summer (:</p>
<p>^ Word...........</p>
<p>Are you self studying or taking a class? If you're taking a class I would say just enjoy your summer.</p>
<p>alrite thx (: i guess i'll enjoy!

i still need to buy prep books tho..

thx</p>

<p>Unless you haven't taken AP courses before, your best bet is to ENJOY THE FREAKING SUMMER! Jesus. What's up with you people focusing on next year's exams when the majority of us have zombie brains after this year's???</p>
<p>This year's APs ended 2 days ago. Take a break, enjoy your summer, and ask again in the fall...</p>
<p>Just to answer your question:
For econ find out what textbook your school uses. Then either get McConnel Brue, or Baumol and Blinder. If your school uses neither of them, then get Baumol and Blinder.
And for study guide get, 5 steps to a 5 and Princeton Review.</p>
<p>Stats is pretty easy, and review books don't really help for it anyway because they tend to focus too little on the conceptual aspects. The best thing you can do is take real old tests, especially for the FRQs. You'll generally notice a big difference between review books and the actual tests. Other than that, just review your weaknesses from a textbook.</p>
<p>AP Stats get Princeton Review or 5 steps to a 5</p>
<p>I haven't tried either of those, but I'm pretty sure Barrons is decent as well. Princeton Review is always concise, which is great if you're taking the class.</p>
<p>if anyone has past released exams for AP Bio, AP USH, AP Comp, or AP Spanish, Ill be glad to have them.. just pm me. thanks! also..all i have is the ap world history stuff..but ill be glad to help u in AP calc or ap stats since i already took those classes.</p>
<p>AP Econ:</p>
<p>Buy Princeton Review's. Read the ANSWERS to the practice tests ONLY. </p>
<p>You will get a 5. </p>
<p>P.S- This is a proven fact that for some reason, only I seem to have discovered it:</p>
<p>In any Social Studies Course- AP Econ, AP World, AP Euro, AP Gov, etc- buy Princeton Review. PR has such awesome answers to the practice tests, that if you only read these, you are practically guaranteed a 5 on the exam. </p>
<p>Why?
Because Princeton Review's answer explain why the answer is what it is and why every other answer choice is wrong. It behaves like a fast comprehensive review. =)</p>
<p>barrons for stats, it will overprepare you, but that's good</p>
<p>mkayyy..
how about lit???
thanks guys</p>
<p>bumppppppppppppppppp</p>
