<p>What is better for a 5 on the exam?</p>
<p>bump, i’d like to know as well. Barron’s book seems to be a lot more in depth but confusing to understand as well. i think Princeton Review is much easier to understand but prep wise, im not sure as to which is better for getting a 5</p>
<p>I’d like to know as well. I’m looking more on the multiple choice practice test that mirrors the real thing the most, since I know most of the stuff already.</p>
<p>I bought both just for these reasons.</p>
<p>There also seems to be lots of practice MC questions online just by googling.</p>
<p>My plan is to get through the review book spring break and then start cranking out practice exams…</p>
<p>The problem is is that the Barron’s book goes into a lot of information that can get confusing. I would just go with the PR, but if you want to make sure you know everything that might have appeared in the college class counterpart than Barron’s is a good one.</p>
<p>Barrons is so much better! Trust me. I 5’ed both Mechanics and E&M easily with Barrons. All of the Princeton Review books for physics (Physics B, Physics C, SAT Physics) have reproduced Mechanics sections. The Physics C Mechanics section have largely the same material copy pasted from the SAT Physics! with only slightly more information on rotation and oscillations. I found that simply deplorable when I discovered that.</p>
<p>Well Barron is famed for putting a lot of bull on the book, so if you got the time, get the Barron’s. </p>
<p>PR is pretty good for Physics B.</p>
<p>Barron’s mechanics is challenging but very helpful. Haven’t started working on e&m yet (yikes!). As a side note, does anyone think it’s possible to learn e&m in a week of spring break?</p>
<p>doign that right now lol</p>
<p>E&M in a week (or two)? Sorry, but no. Unless you’re Richard Feynman.</p>
