<p>I'm planning on self-studying AP Psychology because I'm actually interested in it but my school doesn't offer the class.</p>
<p>When do you think would be best for me to do this? I'll be going into 10th grade this fall.</p>
<p>Did you take a general intro to psych course?</p>
<p>What courses are you taking this year? Sophmore year at my school is the year to slack off but I don't know at your school. I suggest try doing it this year before the horrible junior year.I would suggest getting a psychology textbook and the Barrons prep book with cd to help you.</p>
<p>A few weeks before the AP exam would be sufficient. I independent studied AP Psychology, didn't spend much time on it, and made a 4 (primarily due to my bad writing).</p>
<p>I know freshmen who have gotten 5s on the exam with minimal studying. By Barron's, and a textbook if you need it, and you've got yourself a 5.</p>
<p>just buy barrons and read it a week or two before the exam and you should be set.</p>
<p>That's actually true. There's nothing more to it.</p>
<p>No, I've never taken a psych course.. ever.</p>
<p>I think I will do it sophmore year because I only have one AP and my other classes won't be too hard but my junior and senior years are pretty full.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the replies.</p>
<p>Just wanted to bring this up. Would it be possible to self-study psych in 1-2 months?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>After reading all the stories in CC, I think that is possible. From what I gather, you can literally read Barron's a week before and get a 5.</p>
<p>it is 100 percent possible to self-study psych in 1-2 months</p>
<p>I read Barron's over the course of two weeks, and was able to earn a 5 with ease. (Even though I had the class four months earlier, I remembered little of what I learned before I picked up the review book.)</p>
