<p>World History Barrons is best if you are self-studying, simply because it has so much detail (much unnecessary detail). Someone taking a good AP World History course should only read Princeton Review though.</p>
<p>Try and pick up a textbook if you can, like the Stearn’s AP Edition.</p>
<p>If you’re going to go with a textbook for world, use Stearns. Avoid the Duiker/Spielvogel textbook at all costs. It goes into far too much superfluous detail and avoids mentioning ANY AND ALL historical trends, which is pretty much all that matters on the AP exam.</p>
<p>AP Psychology-Barrons and PR
AP Euro-Modern European History and PR
AP Chem-Princeton Review and 5 Steps to a 5 (may take a class @ a JC)</p>
<p>I’m self studying for AP US History. I plan on using AMSCO. Can you get this book at a store like Barnes & Noble? + How do I improve my DBQ skills for AP US? I’m also taking AP US Government. Should I Use Barrons for Gov or Princeton Review?</p>
<p>can someone please rec good resources for ap stats and physics c: mechanics? im gonna self study for em since the classes wont fit in my schedule</p>
<p>Hey, the more conflicts, the better. Makeups are awesome, and plus, they’re free of charge if you have conflicts. They give you 1-2 extra weeks, which could make a huge difference. It also spreads your exams out more.</p>

<p>LOL I came up with a similar list last year and then dropped a bunch of them.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I’m more concerned that my school will do something like not order the makeup. I was so scared that the administration neglected it because of their forgetful and disorganized nature. There’s a day at the end of april/beginning of May where every kid taking an AP exam goes to the cafeteria and bubbles in his or her answer sheets so they have all of the information. We don’t get to do this for makeup exams (apparently they don’t ship at the same time), so you have no real way of knowing if there’s a problem until the day of the exam.</p>
<p>Plus, my proctor almost didn’t show up…</p>
<p>Self-Studying -
AP Stats - Barrons
AP Psychology - Barrons (possibly PR later in the year)
AP US Government - PR (I might take comparative gov as well…)
Possibly Environmental Science - But I don’t know what book to get for this.</p>
<p>Taking in school -
AP Biology - Cliffnotes
AP USH - AMSCO (My teacher uses Princeton Review for well… review)
AP LIT - I have no idea what book but I heard Cliffs was good. Any suggestions?
AP World History - Barrons</p>
<p>Unfortunately, my counselor as a policy of not granting more than 4 AP to any student so I guess self studying is the only way. Hopefully he’ll order the tests for me…</p>
<p>Self-Study
AP Euro History
AP Psychology</p>
<p>In School
AP World History
AP Biology
AP English Language</p>
<p>We’ll see when I end up taking the tests for my self-studies…maybe end of this year, maybe end of junior year.</p>
<p>AP Psychology - Barron’s
AP Human Geography - Barron’s
AP European History - REA, PR
AP Art History - Annotated Mona Lisa</p>
<p>"Unfortunately, my counselor as a policy of not granting more than 4 AP to any student so I guess self studying is the only way. Hopefully he’ll order the tests for me… "</p>
<p>LOL I hate those restrictions. I wanted to do more AP’s last year too and then my guidance started freaking out and they pretty much forced me to narrow down my list. Just wondering, is it possible to try to register at another school?</p>
<p>AP Chem - Barrons/Cliffnotes
AP Human Geography - Barrons/Cliffnotes
AP World History (I took AP European sophomore year, so I’m thinking I’ll know the gist of it) - Old Euro notes/Barrons/Cliffnotes</p>
<p>Even though I’m taking 5 APs in school, I’m self studying:
AP Euro- Modern European History + PR, and
AP Psych- Barrons</p>
<p>I might have to drop them, between SATs, SAT IIs and all that, though</p>
<p>tennisace: I would suggest studying for Psych over the summer, I hear it’s quick.</p>
<p>Thispakistanigir, I haven’t mentioned the self-studying to my counselor. Hopefully he doesn’t freak out and refuse to order the tests. </p>
<p>But seeing that I live in Korea… My school is the only AP test center in this city.</p>
<p>I’m self-studying AP European History and AP Microeconomics so that I can be AP National Scholar. Resources - Western Heritage from 1300 AP edition by kagan (if i remember) for AP Euro and Microeconomics by connell and brue. Yes, they are both textbooks. I choose to use the PR study guides two months before the AP exams.</p>
<p>AP Human Geography - Barrons
AP U.S. Gov’t - PR
AP Psychology - Barrons, (Taking it as a class but i’d rather get ahead over the summer)</p>
<p>I’m an incoming Junior and i’m also aiming for AP National Scholar.</p>
<p>@MrWheezy - Same here, AP Human Geography isn’t offered in my county so I’ll have to ask my counselor and see if it works out.</p>
<p>^I believe your school can order any AP exam, regardless of whether your county/school offers it or not.</p>
<p>I self-studied some APs this year, and I found this website really helpful for practice tests. </p>
<p>[Free</a> AP Practice Tests](<a href=“http://ap.testfrenzy.com/]Free”>http://ap.testfrenzy.com/)</p>
<p>This website pretty much was my passport to cramming a 5 on AP Calculus BC (BC part self studied, AB part in school)</p>
