<p>What are the best AP review books for Bio and Econ?</p>
<p>Dunno about Bio, but in my experience, Barron’s works very well for Micro, and slightly less well for Macro. This seems to be the trend with all the review books I used - they all cover Micro better than Macro. Perhaps you’d want to invest in two review books for Macro - in which case my second recommendation would be Princeton Review.</p>
<p>I definitely suggest Economics for Dummies, even though it isn’t the conventional AP study book. It lays down a solid foundation for further study, even if it doesn’t have practice tests or isn’t geared towards AP curriculum. Still, if you read and absorb most of the info from one read-through of Econ. for Dummies (a relatively quick read), I would say you’d definitely land at least a 3 on either test.</p>
<p>Cliffnotes for Bio</p>
<p>Cliffnotes - Bio
PR - Macro/Micro</p>
<p>In my opinion:
Cliffs Recommended for Bio
Some pretty good alternatives are Barrons, 5 -Steps to a 5</p>
<p>Eco for Dummies OR PR for Economics (Both Micro / Macro)</p>
<p>I self-studied for bio and got a 5. </p>
<p>Get Cliffs! But you really need a textbook for illustrations. Here’s a hint: botany and the human systems were completely de-emphasized on this exam. Be prepared for them next year, especially in the essay section. You can back off on ecology.</p>
