is self study worth it?

<p>self study for an easy subject.
is it worth the time i would spend?
do colleges even check the score?</p>

<p>Yes, colleges do check the score.
It may be worth the time, depending on the subject.
What's the subject/</p>

<p>statistics....</p>

<p>i havnt looked at the materials yet...</p>

<p>I say read up on it a bit, there are some formulas and calculator techniques you need to learn. If you have other APs, I don't suggest studying this intensively, but I do suggest self-studying a little bit, possibly take one or practice exams.</p>

<p>If you are going to do it pick up every prep book there is along with a good text book (or more than one if you want.)</p>

<p>And buy the released exams from Collegeboard.</p>

<p>is it possible to get a 4~5 with 8 hours of studying considering that i'm quick at getting math concepts.</p>

<p>I studied about 6 hrs of euro history and got a 4, and im terrible in history, so I think it's possible for ur case.</p>

<p>I am self-studying AP stat this year...lol...last minute cramming...</p>

<p>I do think it is doable to get a 5 w / 8 hours prep, but I think it would be difficult. I have been studying off and on for the last month or so, but it's only this last week that i've really started studying enough...</p>

<p>You would have to know background stuff and principles.</p>
