<p>^ I do recommend it. I was kinda cynical at first because I was somewhat disappointed with the one for AP Biology, but I ended buying it anyway (I’d figured I had nothing to lose lol). It’s nice and concise, and hits the main points pretty well. I compared it with some of things that my textbook mentions, and like I said before, it does a good job of incorporating all those of points. I’m content with it.</p>

<p>dark knight - I’m just wondering: did ever you do an analysis for the one for AP Biology?</p>

42

<p>^I’m curious of that as well. I just purchased the Barron’s book for that too.</p>

<p>I’ll consider purchasing that as well. Thanks for the recommendation!</p>

<p>The ones for the AP Sciences aren’t good because they’re not written by the same genius that rights the history/humanities ones: Larry Krieger.</p>

<p>hey, would only crash course and a working knowledge of US politics be enough to get a self-studied 5??? getting kinda nervous with the test coming up :/</p>

<p>Here is the AP Government thread. With just two weeks to go Crash Course is the most efficient and focused review book. Its success on the 2009 Released exam is indisputable.</p>

<p>Really pleased w/ Crash Course -it had a lot of hits on today’s test. Impressive.</p>

<p>Thanks dark knight!</p>

<p>Crash course is the best!!! I read that book front to cover yesterday and it helped me a TON on todays test!!</p>

<p>So, how are 5 steps, Barrons, ap achiever, or kaplan? Which review book best supplements crash course for a self study?</p>

51

<p>Barron’s was really good, especially on practice multiple choice questions. Some of them were really similar to the ones on the test. <– am i allowed to say that?</p>

52

<p>5-Steps was good, PR was great.</p>

<p>Just took the 2013 onee,</p>
