<p>Is the Barron's book for AP Psychology good? I'm self-studying for this test... I REALLY want/need a 5.</p>
<p>For AP Psych, get either the Barron's book, the McGraw-Hill's (5 Steps to a 5), or both. I got both. I self-studied AP Psych last year and got a 5! It was relatively easy!</p>
<p>Barron's: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764123491/sr=8-1/qid=1142989626/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8%5B/url%5D">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764123491/sr=8-1/qid=1142989626/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8</a> <-- The book I used - GREAT review and practice questions!</p>
<p>NEWER Barron's book: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764179098/sr=8-2/qid=1142989673/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8%5B/url%5D">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0764179098/sr=8-2/qid=1142989673/ref=pd_bbs_2/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8</a> <--- Comes with a CD... The text's content may have actually been updated since the edition I used.</p>
<p>McGraw-Hill: 5 Steps to a 5 - <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0071412778/sr=8-1/qid=1142989832/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8%5B/url%5D">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0071412778/sr=8-1/qid=1142989832/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-4804711-1439810?%5Fencoding=UTF8</a> <--- Very concise review and great m.c. review! It's also good for setting your own distinct pace as far as review goes.</p>

<p>I hope this is helpful to those of you planning to self-study AP Psych. Don't worry! At this point, AP Psych is a GREAT choice b/c unlike other APs, you can seriously prepare in just weeks (and weeks is all that's left)!! Good luck! If you need any more advice, feel free to PM me!</p>

<p>Anybody know how to effectively study for the APES exam? How is it one of the easier exams? I think it's harder the the AP Physics B exam....</p>

<p>Genesis, you THINK it's harder?? Haha, unless someone has a natural affinity for Physics, it most definitely is harder (yet by no means impossible)! :)</p>
<p>I don't know why..Maybe it's because I've been so absorbed into Physics & neglected APES for most of the year.</p>
<p>Haha. I <3 AP Physics... but my teacher makes it pretty difficult. I thank him a lot for it b/c he's preparing us VERY well for the AP exam as far as Free Response questions are concerned!</p>
<p>environmental science, AP World, AP Euro, Ap Human Geography, and possibly AP psychology if you can do it properly.
Some music lovers I know just ace the AP music theory tests like nothing.</p>

<p>Anybody know of a good prep book for AP French Language?</p>
<p>Thanks CC'ers!</p>
<p>I have the same question, eiffel13.</p>
<p>has anybody ever self-studied/tihnk self-studying would be easy for: AP USH, AP euro history, Bio, or Chem?</p>
<p>I self studied Computer Science AB this year and I think that its very easy to do. You can do it at your own pace and there really isnt that much material to cover. A teacher wouldnt help much anyways. YOu can find whatever you want online since it is a newer subject, and there arent that many books on it.</p>
<p>hey mattd, is comp sci AP really math based?</p>
<p>What books did you use, mattd?</p>
<p>bump for my question-has anybody ever self-studied/tihnk self-studying would be easy for: AP USH, AP euro history, Bio, or Chem?</p>
