<p>Does the Princeton Review book for AP chemistry give good info for conceptual questions that will show up on the exam. </p>
<p>for example:
"which oxide is the best reducing agent" or </p>
<p>" Which solution produces a black precipitate when added to an aqueous copper(II) solution?" or</p>
<p>"Which absorbs gaseous carbon dioxide most effectively?"</p>
<p>(these were multiple choice questions, btw)</p>
<p>If PR does not give infor on conceptual stuff (like the Q's above) are there any books that do? or any websites that i can go on?</p>
<p>PR is best for ap chem.</p>
<p>PR does ask those kind of questions. Definitely get it to study for ap chem.</p>
<p>^ can anyone confirm?</p>
<p>What's there to confirm? Any good book will have both conceptual and quantitative review and practice.</p>
<p>Yeah alot of people on this board have been saying that PR is the best book to use for chem.</p>
<p>Yes, get PR for Chem. It's great.</p>
<p>Now, please stop bumping this thread, since everyone is agreeing that PR is good for Chem.</p>
<p>^ it is always better to get more than one opinion. Also, a lot of times people who have never purchased PR are quick to say that it's great just because the Consolidated list says so.</p>
<p>There are hundreds of opinions if you do a search, and the "consolidated list" has a list of books that are agreed upon for a reason.</p>
<p>I am not looking for opinions. I have a specific question to ask. A question that can only be answered by people who have read PR's book for AP chemistry. </p>
<p>Thank you very much...</p>
<p>Which brings me back to what I said earlier in this thread:

</p>
<p>And it's the good books that are in the consolidated list.</p>
<p>There are also books like Cliffs which, although good, focus almost entirely on the math. Since people generally prefer books that do a good job with both quantitative and conceptual review, the books with these things will be cited more often as "good books for AP chemistry" than books like Cliffs, and it's those same "good books" that get put in the consolidated list.</p>
<p>Likewise, these same "good books" will be cited most frequently in all the tens or hundreds of threads that are made asking for advice about books.</p>
<p>5 steps to 5 is really nice well..</p>
<p>Just get the PR, already! :P</p>
<p>I took AP Chem, school uses Zumdahl as a text, I used PR as a review. I got a 5.</p>
