<p>Out of these three - Barron, Kaplan, and Princeton Review, which one book is the best choice to use for the AP Chemistry test (and why)?</p>
<p>There are a TON of other threads on this...</p>
<p>Do a search.</p>
<p>The generally consensus is, however, Princeton Review</p>
<p>DEFINITELY princeton review (and u know im serious when i use all caps). i saw barrons, really no organization. but pr was amazing. i just read the sections that basically retaught the whole course, and then i practiced with the many practice questions on CB.com</p>
<p>if i took h. chem my freshmen year (im gonna be a junior)</p>
<p>should i attempt to take ap chem after taking a summer class at </p>
<p>a community college? i really need to raise my sat chem score too T.T</p>
<p>what about ARCO???</p>
<p>i thot that was only good for Calc?</p>
<p>i dunno dont ask me lol</p>
<p>^ i also heard it was good for calc and chem</p>
<p>i have ARCO for both subjects, haha ;P</p>
<p>do u think its worth a try to self study chem since i took h. chem before?</p>
<p>i know its nothing compared to the ap but i really need to raise my</p>
<p>sat chem score, and i think chem will be a strong part of what i wanna</p>
<p>major in</p>
<p>I looked at most AP Chem prep books. If I had to suggest one, I'd go with Peterson's (formerly Arco).</p>
<p>So would you say Arco is a good median between PR (not so much detail, only like 450 pages) and Barrons (too much detail over 800 pages).</p>
<p>I think I want more than PR but not as much as Barrons. So is Arco what I'm looking for?</p>
<p>From what I've heard, Peterson's (Arco) is more comprehensive than PR, even though it's only 300 pages. I think I will go for this book for AP Chem next year.</p>
<p>i used both barrons and pr. pr's exams felt more like the actual ap exam but barrons prepared me by challenging me with harder questions. it doesnt hurt to do more practice^^ i ended up getting a 5.</p>
<p>Not Barrons... too many little mistakes, too confusing</p>
