Best Review Book for SAT II Physics?

<p>Hey, all - Well, I'm going to be taking the SAT II Physics Test in June, as well as US History and Chemistry. I've been using Princeton Review for Chemistry, but started using SparkNotes, and I'm using Barrons just to review US History (since AP studying pretty much did everything).</p>

<p>But what book is the best book in terms of review-wise for SAT II Physics? Also, how generous is the curve and how difficult is the test, compared to AP? I heard the curve was generous, but I don't know [i[how* generous..</p>

<p>Thanks-</p>

<p>I’m just using my AP Physics review book. I think it’ll suffice.</p>

<p>Princeton Review is supposed to be the best for physics.</p>

<p>Kaplan’s a fail.</p>

<p>Just use your AP Physics book and wikipedia relativity or something.</p>

<p>You’ll definitely want to use PR or something as there is a lot of random stuff on optics/diffraction/etc that you won’t even touch in AP Physics. The problems aren’t very challenging but involve recalling a lot of facts and stuff so you’ll need to learn those. Sparknotes also has some decent material on there.
I personally used PR for the May SATII Physics after taking AP Physics and I think I did fine.</p>

<p>I’ve been using Sparknotes, but after seeing this post, I’m starting to wonder how good it really is. :(</p>

<p>Why is Sparknotes so terrible, and what makes Princeton Review that much better?</p>
