<p>hey do you think I can get a 4 or a 5 w/only REA? </p>
<p>otherwise I'll get the Annotated Mona Lisa: A Crash Course in Art History from Prehistoric to Post-Modern to supplement it. </p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>ALSO!</p>
<p>the only material you really need for Human Geo is Barron's right?? thanks</p>
<p>That's not exactly a question we can answer. We have no idea what your background in the arts is like so we have no way to gauge your ability to memorize paintings.</p>
<p>Generally the prep book for AP Art History that most kids on CC like is the Annotated Mona Lisa.</p>
<p>And again, most people prefer Barron's Human Geo.</p>
<p>I have no real bg in the arts. I was planning on using solely REA's Art History, and Barron's Human Geo to study for the AP exams.</p>
<p>There is also another book u might want to check out, Barons AP Art History.</p>
<p>Thanks </p>
<p>I'm not taking either Human Geo or Art History classes at my school, so do you think just REA Art History and Barron's Human Geo books will suffice?</p>
<p>Or should I buy other books (such as Mona Lisa's Annotated)?</p>
<p>Hey, jyi90</p>
<p>I took AP Art History this year, and, thanks to my awesome teacher, I got a 5. </p>
<p>This may be slightly biased, (being that my teacher wrote it) but, I really think Barron's Art History is the way to go. </p>
<p>He was REALLY REALLY knowledgeable. Everything that we saw on the test, we had been taught. EVERYTHING. It just came down to whether or not we remembered it. </p>
<p>Some of the kids in my class this year tried out REA, but they found it be of little help. I mean, an art history book thats (if I hear correctly) almost completely without pictures? Is that even logical?</p>
<p>But, whichever you choose, best of luck! You'll find it to be a fascinating subject!</p>
