<p>PLUS FEEL FREE TO MENTION NEXT TO IT THE BEST BOOK TO USE FOR SELF-STUDYING! I WILL POST THE TOP 5 in order tomorrow along with book reccomendations!</p>
<p>bookworms will finish english lit in a breeze, but those who hate writing will do miserably. some math people can just "get" calculus without blinking an eye, while others (cough business majors) will never understand it. a fluent speaker of french will have no problems with ap french, but somebody whose most intimate interaction with french comes with his whopper won't get very far.</p>
<p>basically, there is no easiest exam. just do what you're good at.</p>
<p>Is physics that bad? I was going to study it this year (college apps and such things delayed me, and then I just went oh well) on my own and my teachers all said I would be fine. But I am totally a math/science person so maybe that's why?</p>
<p>Also, the person who said there is no easiest AP is right. It's what you are best at. Plus, self studying is boring... teachers and classmates = debate and teaching each other and learning together and FUN :D</p>
<p>i self-studied 5 this year; easiest to hardest in terms of probable score:</p>
<p>govt
us hist
eng lang
world hist
chem</p>
<p>in terms of learning the material, easiest to hardest:</p>
<p>world hist
govt
eng lang
us hist
chem</p>
<p>for review books </p>
<p>amsco for us hist easily~
kaplan and/or pr for chem -- kaplan goes into better detail than pr
pr for world hist
cliffs for eng lang easily~
pr for govt easily~</p>
<p>b/c even after you read the whole thing some things are still obscure in your mind. and the dbq and essays are usually obscure also, so i had to read it twice to make sure i understood all the political, social, econ associations; sucks</p>
<p>I self studied 8 subjects without the use of a textbook over my sophomore, junior, and senior years. </p>
<p>This is what I think (easiest to hardest):</p>
<ol>
<li>Psychology - this exam's difficulty is bordering on the point of absurdly easy</li>
<li>Government - pretty much if you watch the news and pay attention in social studies over high school, you'll be fine</li>
<li>Environmental Science - especially easy if you already have a AP Bio background</li>
<li>World History - great for people who love facts</li>
<li>Calculus BC - not "easy" per se, but easy to get a 5 because of the big curve. Do not attempt to take without having a Calc AB background or a BC class. I took AB prior to this.</li>
<li>Economics - I think this could have been easy, but it is really difficult to self-study this in a short amount of time and get a good grade. I'd recommend starting at least a month or two months prior to taking the exam (rather than me, trying to cram it in 2 days)</li>
<li>European History - still not very difficult, but the names of the kings and their accomplishments will get pretty confusing after awhile. BUY REA and LEARN TO WRITE A DBQ - then you will get a 5.</li>
<li>Statistics - I beg to differ on anyone that says Stats is an easy study. I started on Stats 2 weeks before the exam, and still ended up getting a 4 because I could not understand null statements properly. I thought that was confusing.</li>
</ol>
<p>For reference, time spent and score obtained:
Psychology - 2 nights - 5
Government - 2 nights - pending (expecting 5)
Environmental Science - 1 night - pending (expecting 5)
World History - 3 weeks - 5
Calculus BC - AB background, 2 weeks - 5/5
Economics - 2 nights - pending (expecting 3-4)
European History - 3 weeks - 5
Stats - 2 weeks - 4</p>
