Peterson's vs. Princeton Review for Calc AB

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation

<p>I'm starting to gather up prep materials for next year's AP classes, and have everything sorted out except for Calc AB. From what I have seen, the general consensus on the board is that both Princeton Review and Peterson's books do a good job of reflecting what is going to be on the test.</p>

<p>I also plan on getting Barron's Calc book, since it contains a lot of practice tests and I strongly believe that the overprep Barron's generally provides is invaluable. Which one of the other books would supplement Barron's the best: Princeton Review or Peterson's?</p>

<p>I highly doubt you’d need more than one prep book to do well on Calc AB.
I didn’t even use a prep book and am pretty sure I 5’d it.</p>

<p>If you’d like a recommendation, I’d say PR. Its got good problems and detailed explanations. Barron’s tests are above-average in difficulty, and that prepares you well for the test itself.</p>
