How to Self-Study AP Psychology

<p>So, I am a rising senior and I'm taking Honors Psychology next year. Due to course restraints, I cannot take AP, but I was wondering how I should supplement the class so that I know enough for the AP?</p>

<p>I read a Princeton Review 3 days before the test and I got a 5…IMO a prep book (either Barrons or PR) is all u need.</p>

<p>I’ve heard that Barrons + PR a month before the exam is more than enough to get you a 5. I’m a little skeptical about this method, but hopefully it’ll work out for me…</p>

<p>AP psych is one of the easiest ap tests, so Barron’s should be plenty. My psych class used it more than the real textbook and most people earned a 4 or 5.</p>

<p>my friend used barron and PR and got himself a 5.</p>

<p>Use Barron’s. Read it and know it. Take the practice tests and do the questions at the end of each section. You don’t really need a textbook. Also, use this site as a review <a href=“http://www.appsychology.com/[/url]”>http://www.appsychology.com/&lt;/a&gt;
it is a really good overview. I did this, but took the class too, and easily got a 5. Good Luck!</p>

<p>I was able to take AP psych this year, but I used a review book that my teacher lent me and did the practice tests in it towards the last few weeks. It was an excellent book. I can’t remember what it was but it was bright pink and white. I thought the test was really easy. Got a 5.</p>

<p>^ I think it’s an older edition of 5 Steps to a 5 which is supposed to be the 2nd best AP Psych book [behind Barron’s]</p>
