<p>I just saw a board about these, and I'm curious about them. How do they work? Can you simply buy a book, study it, and take the test? Even if your school doesn't offer the course? When/how would you take the test, etc?</p>
<p>Any suggestions on which are easily self-studied for 5s?</p>
<p>That pretty much how it is done: buy a study guide for the subject you’re self-studying and read it. When AP exam registration comes, sign up for the exam you’re self-studying. </p>
<p>Three easiest are Psychology, Human Geography, and Environmental Science.</p>
<p>Self sudying APs is a greqt way to broaden your horizons and add a bit of depth to your application. Depending on how much there is to learn, go out and buy a Barons or Cliff’s notes AP Edition and devote an hour or two a week to studying begining this month or in January closer to the test date, let your school’s ap coordnator that you want to sit for the exam.I recommend Psycology, Environmental Science,Geography, Government, Statistics, or an Economics exam. Beware that the history exams cover an insane amount of material and the hard sciences are more beneficial at school because of access to labs.</p>
<p>I was thinking about doing Human Geography…what does this class entail? I’d never even heard about it until I looked at the CB site. So I can take the test even if there’s no class offered? I would just go in after school or something?</p>
<p>AP Human Geo is a superb subject!
I learned a lot in it.</p>
<p>Buy the Princeton and 5 steps to a 5 and read it.
Read them again.
Get a 5.</p>
