<p>Since AP Exams are rolling around the corner, I thought we might be able to help each other with study resources, etc. I was taking some AP Exams, and I was wondering if you could tell me what the best prep book is for that exam (ex: Barron's, Cliff's, Kaplan, Princeton Review). I won't be reading the actual book for the exam, and I was wondering what kind of score I could get:</p>
<p>EXAMS THAT I HAVE READ THE BOOK FOR (I am enrolled in the class):
Calculus BC
Physics B
United States Government
Comparative Government
English Literature
Biology*</p>
<p>EXAMS THAT I AIN'T READ FOR
Psychology
Statistics
Macroeconomics/Microeconomics
Environmental Science</p>
<p>Please recommend books for any of the above, and following that, a score you think I could make by ONLY reading the book (In the case of the bottom exams):</p>
<p>ex: Psychology, Barron's, 4 [maybe explanation]</p>
<p>Let me know which ones you want info for. I've taken:</p>
<p>Human Geography
Chemistry
French Language
US History
English Literature</p>
<p>BC is a piece of cake, if you're in the class you'll prolly get a 5 with your eyes closed</p>
<p>why are you taking 90 ap exams?</p>
<p>environmental science you dont need a book to get a 5, its just logical deducement with a bit of chem and bio knowledge. I walked into that exam without even opening the book and got a 5</p>
<p>statistics is pretty easy, any barrons will do</p>
<p>psychology is also a hoot, I walked into that exam without reading the book or taking the course and I got a 5</p>
<p>the key to ap exams is timing and bsing well</p>
<p>I should know, I got ap national scholar in my junior year</p>
<p>btw, Cliffs Notes is the best for bio</p>
<p>..............
not even sure i am up to taking the three AP exams i took the classes for this year. my school makes us pay the 80 dollars for the exam, and if i am going to a school that doesn't accept it as credit, if it is not used for anything college-acceptance related, if it is a three and a half hour pain in the... butt... then... why pay tha tmoney for that?
I guess so that if I get good scores my school can be proud? Geeze, they sure would be ****ed if i just didn't take them. simply unheard of.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm taking 4 APs. I could have taken like 9 if I wanted to kill myself, but thats not what 4th quarter senior year is all about...</p>
<p>i agree with sil. i'm taking four (that came with classes at school). and that's enough for me. i'm ready to relax my second semester. ESPECIALLY after APs are over and I only have to take a world religion's final. :)</p>
<p>signed up for 10 tests, baby...woohoo :)</p>
