Self Studying Advice Needed

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation

<p>I am currently taking AP Biology and will be taking that as well as Pre-Cal, Honors Physics, and English III Honors in the spring. I was considering self studying Psych, Earth/Enviromental and AP Government (not sure which one). This would be my first time self studying for an AP test so I am sort of nervous, would this be too much to take on? Also, which AP Gov would be best if I took Honors Civics last year. Thanks.</p>

<p>Well, I don’t know what your Honors Civics class consisted of, so it’s hard to comment on that, but I think any of those three are relatively easy to take. Just go to this thread: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/ap-tests-preparation/201793-consolidated-book-suggestions-ap.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/ap-tests-preparation/201793-consolidated-book-suggestions-ap.html&lt;/a&gt; and find the study book for any particular subject. If you want a 5, I’d suggest studying at least a month in advance if not more. Some people can study the night before and get a 5, but that depends on people. I did Psych last year and it was really interesting, and not too stressful. So judging by your background, I recommend either Psych or Am.Gov.</p>

<p>I was wondering if taking all 4 tests (including Bio) in may would be too much (i am a motivated student). Also, since I took Civics should I take US Gov or Comp. Gov?</p>

<p>anyone else? help still needed</p>

<p>^Dude, im self studying Psych, chem, and environ sci, along with taking physics, calc, and bio at school. If i can do that, then you can do this. Good luck!</p>

<p>Thanks for the input. I just have one more question. Which AP government is the easiet (in terms of self stuying for), Comparative or US. I have some knowledge in Civics if that makes much of a difference.</p>

<p>I think you would be more familiar with US Govt but if you find Comp. more interesting, it might be easier.</p>

<p>I’m taking both and it seems that Comp. is more interesting. Too bad I can’t get the Ethel Woods book!</p>

<p>instead of Ethel Woods would 5 steps to a 5 be good for self studying U.S Gov</p>
