Hey Guys! I have Barron’s and 5 Steps to a 5 for psychology. I agree with most CCers in that Barron’s is much more easier to understand (and fun to read to), but it has a lot of info missing that I found in the 5 Steps to a 5 book. Are these extra info in the 5 steps to a 5 book unneeded and extra, or are they important and I muse see what’s missing in Barron’s and study it? Thanks in advance! :)</p>
Idk I have barrons too. But you have to understand that you don’t need to know/study every single thing. Read amazon reviews for the books to really understand. But from what I’ve read the barrons guarantees a 4&5</p>

yeah, but I mean there’s a big gap between the two books. The History and Approaches chapter for example in 5 Steps to a 5 has a section on the subfields of psychology that isn’t even touched on in Barron’s. I’m very worried if those extra stuff in every chapter will come in the exam or not.</p>
Don’t use 5 steps. Barrons and pr are apparently the best </p>

Does Princeton have those extra info in every chapter as well? I just want to know if everything in the AP exam will come 100% from Barron’s or is it not enough. If it matters, I have Barron’s, 5 Steps, the Crash Course, and Cliffs.</p>
I don’t know I have barrons. And no review book covers an entire AP exam anyways. Just learn the info and use your brain</p>

Just read through Barron’s once or twice. I personally read through once and highlighted what I felt was important and then read through my highlighted bits once again. That’s how I self studied it, and I got an easy five. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how easy the exam is. There are a few hard questions, but the gross majority are very, very easy.</p>
Guys don’t have much time, wont be able to start untill the 30th. I will be going really hard. I Have a bunch of books but crash course looks the best because portable size lets me study much more. Like if i have a couple minutes and where i can pull it out. It also contains the bare minimum and the format is great. I am an amazing memorizer, but the outline-link format makes it so much better. Can I get a 5 self-study with memorizing crash course and taking a few practice tests? I got Barrons, PR, and 5 steps also. But those are so inconvenient and have big paraghraphs.</p>
