<p>To put it lightly, my school hasn't adequately prepared us for the AP Physics and Literature exams. I've gotten good grades in the classes, but after having taken a look at the exams on the college boards site, I'm freaking the f**k out. I have a month left. I have the Princeton Review study guides for both tests along with a Barron's book for the Physics B exam. I'll be happy with 3's in both, so can I do it in a month (get prepared for the exams I mean)?</p>
<p>I feel the same way… We are WAYYYYYYYYY LIGHT YEARS BEHIND WITH AP Physics B… crap</p>
<p>Yeah, so are we. Our teacher started holding after school sessions a month and a half before the exams, but since I don’t naturally click with physics, I’m feeling worried.</p>
<p>Bump for original question</p>
<p>Well, you can do it if you want to. It won’t be easy, but if you put in the time and effort, you can definitely get 3s. </p>
<p>I would assume you have some background in Physics (I can’t help you with Lit, sorry), so you should go through the Barron’s/PR book and do a practice test or a diagnostic test to see what you’re good at and what you’re not so good at. Review your weaknesses (and your strengths) and take another practice test (I would assume either book has at least 2). Then, go to AP Central and try the past FRQs. They’ll seem impossible at first, but if you look through the explanations and scoring keys, you’ll start to get a hang of it (since the questions are pretty similar). Good Luck!</p>
<p>(By questions being pretty similar, I mean that the questions for each type of section are pretty similar in what they’ll ask for. For example, a fluids question usually asks for the same thing, a thermodynamics question usually will ask for the same things, etc. Sometimes, you’ll get a weird question out of the blue, but when that happens, just reason it out with the physics knowledge you’ve built up)</p>
