Test Preparation

<p>That sticky thread is way too long now.</p>

<p>I'm taking a class for AP US Gov ,but self studying for AP Comp. Gov & Human Geography.</p>

<p>What are the best books?</p>

<p>I want a 5 on each of these.</p>

<p>There’s way too many threads on CC about this but…but since I’m going to be taking the same classes next year I’m going with:</p>

<p>U.S. Gov - I’m using Princeton Review and the textbook we use in class.
Comp. Gov - EVERYONE says that the Ethel Woods Study Guide is solid for Comp. Gov.
Human Geo - Here I’m going to be using Barrons, and any other book that I can find in my Library, but the AP Human Geo exam supposedly has the highest curve so I’m not going to sweat this one.</p>

<p>Hope that helps. Come May of 2010 Five should be your favorite number. =)</p>

<p>For AP AmGov, I found Barron’s to be extremely helpful- I definitely ended up feeling “overprepared”.</p>

<p>For AP US Gov. if you’re looking for a textbook, my class used [LexDex</a> | Studying 2.0](<a href=“http://www.lexdex.com/book/american-government-essentials]LexDex”>http://www.lexdex.com/book/american-government-essentials) this one. It’s a good textbook and then for studying, I used the Barron’s AP US G/P book. They both work well. Best of luck!</p>

<p>Ethel Woods–> EVERYONE on CC uses it…it’s an excellent book</p>

<p>Kaplan is actually really good for Human Geo and US Gov. However, Barron’s might work better for you on Human Geo since it seems like the popular book to use.</p>

<p>My recommendation is Barron’s. But for US history use Princeton Review thats very helpful.</p>
