<p>I need to learn Chemistry, Biology and World History so I can take the Subject Tests this autumn, but I have no basic knowledge of the subjects. Which books would you recommend for (a) learning the subjects and (b) studying for the exams?</p>
<p>Thanks! :)</p>
<p>Why are you taking those exams if you haven't taken even basic courses in them? Why not take tests that correspond to subjects you're taking in school?</p>
<p>Well, maybe "no basic knowledge" wasn't the right phrase. What I meant was that, since I'm homeschooled, I haven't done any courses in those subjects, or covered what people would in high school. I know that I can learn the material quickly if need be (I got an A in my Physics A-level with no prior knowledge), I just need to know what books to get.</p>
<p>Oh, alright.</p>
<p>I'd recommend Princeton Review for Chemistry (just also look at SparkNotes practice tests online as well).</p>
<p>PR for chemistry, sparknotes for bio</p>
<p>biology - cliffs
world history - princeton</p>
<p>Barron's is solid for bio as well.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the replies so far ^^. I'll go check out the books on Amazon in a second.</p>
<p>@cbrown101 - do you only offer online courses to people who've gone through the traditional high-school system? What kind of background knowledge would I have to know before starting a course?</p>
