Pre-College Issues High School Life

<p>Hi everyone, I'm currently a freshman and I'm taking two AP classes online next year since my school doesn't offer any APs. I am taking AP Biology and AP US History, both online. It's my first time taking APs so what do you guys suggest I should do prior taking the classes? </p>

<p>These are books my library and some people I know have:
FOR AP BIO: Campbell 8th edition, CliffsNotes, for Dummies, Cracking the Exam, Barron's, McGraw Hill Biology 12
FOR APUSH: American Pageant: History of the Republic (AP Edition), CliffsNotes, 5 Steps to a 5, for Dummies, Master AP US History, A People's History of the United States.
There's more but these are what I think would be the most helpful? I plan to read some of these books during the summer in order to prepare for the classes.</p>

<p>What else should I read? watch? Do you guys know any website that teaches these classes for free like NROC? Any tips? suggestions? Anything would be great! (:
Thank you!</p>

<p>Hah, for APUSH last year I had the American Pageant book too!!! I thought it was pretty good. I also had the People’s History book too!!!-very interesting change to the primary textbook. Also had Kaplan APUSH prep book and Kaplan prep flashcards, both of which I liked.</p>

<p>For APUSH we used Pageant… then get AMSCO, it’s really good. You don’t need People’s History to help prepare you for the test.</p>

<p>We used Pageant for APUSH, too.
Get Crash Course and AMSCO, or Crash Course and Direct Hits.</p>

<p>For bio, just get Campbells and Cliffs.</p>
