Self-studying!

<p>I decided to self-study for AP Bio, Human Geo, and possibly Environmental Science.<br>
Any tips and do you think its possible?</p>

<p>I think it’s possible to self-study Human Geo and Enviro Sci, because many people have done that at my school and have passed. However, for AP Bio, there is a lot of material to cover. If you have taken bio classes in the past, then with a textbook (I recommend Campbells study guide) and the cliffnotes ap bio prep book, I think you should be fine.</p>

<p>read the book
know how the exam works
prepare for the exam by taking practice exams etc.</p>

<p>pretty much all there is to it.</p>

<p>I self-studied both APES and APHG last year in 10th grade.
It’s definitely possible, and actually quite simple, as long as you are diligent.
What I did:

  1. Bought a textbook for both subjects.
  2. Read some of the chapters (not all of them).
  3. Bought a couple review books for each subject. I bought PR and Kaplan for APES, and Barron’s, PR, and REA for APHG. I mostly stuck to PR for each, which imo is the best review book for both tests.
  4. Read each review book at least once, went through all of the MC questions.</p>

<p>It was simple, and by April, I was scoring around 80/100 on APES MC tests and around 60/75 on APHG tests, well within the range for a 5. I didn’t practice free response questions. </p>

<li>I talked to my school’s AP Coordinator, and he was happy to order the tests for me. They ended up being insanely easy tests. I probably scored around 80% on each, whereas the cutoff for a 5 is around 60%.</li>
</ol>

<p>PM me if you need anymore advice. I’d be glad to share some.</p>

<p>It is definitely possible.</p>
