<p>does anyone know how good the Cliffnsnotes AP prep books are other than the Biology on which i have heard is excellent
im looking into particularly the AP Chem book
who good was the book and what did u end up getting on the AP Chem exam
thanks in advance</p>
<p>The Cliffs AP Chem book is good only for its lab section. The rest of the book is basically an outline; it gives you equations and vocab and doesn't explain them. I'd suggest getting PR or Barron's for AP Chem, and just flipping through the Cliffs labs.
(I got a 5).</p>
<p>Cliff's AP Biology is considered the premiere AP Biology review resource.</p>
<p>im talking about teaching AP Chem to urself because this summer i wanna get ahead of my science classes b/c i have a really tough schedule next year and a lot (and i mean A LOT) of standardized tests (PSAT, SAT, ACT, 3 SATs, 4 AP exams) so i just wanna make sure i can get really good grades in these classes b/c i wanna become a doctor and keep my GPA up so does PR and Barrons teach Chem or just review it
making a 5 on the AP Chem exam is not gonna be a problem for me b/c the AP Chem teach at our school used to actually write the exam so everyone makes a 5 on the exam regardless if you have a C or an A+ and he hasn't had a student in i dont know how many years that hasnt made a 5 on the AP Chem exam
so does PR and barrons teach better than cliffsnotes?
out of these books which one would you recommend the most?
thanks</p>
<p>I'm thumbing through PR right now and I think it's awesome. the problem with barrons is a lot of times they give you TOO much information and you just get aggrevated and confused. couse I've already taken a semester of chem... so I dunno. i leafed through a barron's review book during christmas break and I didn't like it.</p>
<p>thanks vtran
neone else??</p>
<p>Is the newest edition of Cliffs AP Bio edition 2 (2001)?</p>
