Self study for ap with online video courses

<p>I'm wondering if this will prepare me for the ap tests in may... I am not able to fit ap physics c: e&m, ap psych, and ap calc bc into my schedule this year. But my teachers told me that MIT and Yale both have online free video courses, where they video taped the lessons when the professors were teaching. Will this prepare me for all three of these ap tests? And which one should I watch for psych? Is it the introduction to psychology? Thanks!</p>

<p>And I am really good with both physics and calc by the way...got 5s on both physics c: mechanic and calc ab last year.</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>Physics is more difficult because you’ll miss out on the labs. You may be able to ace the exam, but missing out on lab protocol and specific experiments could come back to bite you later. I’m not aware of a Psych class on OpenCourseware, but I haven’t delved into it too much. MIT’s Calculus videos online are pretty instructional, or so I thought. You should definitely check those out. Perhaps also get a study book to do problems out of.</p>

<p>Thank you! I found the psych course on yale’s online lectures, there are a couple of them, but I’m assuming that it is the intro to psych… Thank you for your help!!</p>

<p>Yeahyuh yhu cud dew it. MIT has great lectures fo physic and claclulus</p>

<p>Those resources are good but they aren’t custom tailored for ap exams. So what ends up happening is you waste alot of time studying stuff which might not even be on the exam!</p>

<p>I thought about watching videos for self studying AP exams. Never got around any websites that had good content though. Can anyone recommend some?</p>

<p>I would not recommend it. Only use trusted sources for studying for AP exams.</p>

<p>Listen to thenewguyintown. You should only use “trusted” sources for studying for AP exams. Apparently MIT and Yale are untrustworthy. Who knew? Its not like they are one of the best institutions in the world. If they were, wouldn’t there be online forums dedicated to getting accepted into them?</p>

<p>thenewguyintown actually has a point. According to my psych teacher the AP has a few different takes on subjects on the psychology exam. He explained that the AP in certain subjects of psychology teaches and tests differently than a college would. They cover an older perspective on certain parts of psychology so their test actually differs from the current norm in the field. Thus, MIT and Yale could hold a different position and cause you to answer incorrectly on the test. I would look into the differences.</p>
