Time For A Poll! Top 5 Easiest Ap's To Self Study For (reviewbooks Only- No Texts)...

<p>In no particular order:</p>

<p>Psychology, Environmental, English Lang, English Lit.</p>

<p>You guys might say the last two are hard to self-study but really if you're a reader of the editorial page (for Lang) and literature (for lit) you just have to practice a few essays.</p>

<p>Psychology, Human Geography, Government, Environmental Science are easy to cram and score well in a short amount of time. I studied PR for one (really long) half-day and got a 5 on US Gov.</p>

<p>English Lit and English Lang if you're already adept at English.</p>

<p>Here goes (easiest to hardest) for me.</p>

<ol>
<li> Economics (macro and micro- macro is a little bit easier)</li>
<li> AP Gov- the books are almost more interesting than the class</li>
<li> Physics B- if you have taken calc, mechanics will be a breeze</li>
<li> AP US history- straightforwards- essay format for DBQ a bit tricky.</li>
</ol>

<p>DO NOT self study for
1. Calc- insanely easy with a good teacher, but would be impossible without
2. AP Chem- the class at my school is tough and I would not like to take 2 semesters of Chem on my own</p>

<p>Possible, but depends on the scores required
1. Physics C- I needed 5's for my college and many others do the same thing. Mechanics isn't too bad, but E&M is tough. I ended up getting a 5 and a 4, as did the smartest kid in my Physics B class- he won the Colorado Physics Competition studied with me for an additional 50-60 hours.</p>

<p>I'd recommend that everyone self-study for Psychology. It was absurdly easy, I studied for a total of 5 hours the weekend before the test and I'm confident that I'll receive a 5. Get the class out of the way now, you don't want to spend any more time taking useless lecture hall classes in college than are absolutely necessary.</p>

<p>What's the point of just cramming anyway? If you don't know the material a day before the test, you probably shouldn't get college credit for memorizing a bunch the night before...</p>

<p>That said, English language and lit are probably very easy to "study" as as long as you have taken some English classes, and can write -- what more is there? I took English language this year; our school has no AP English class, but I'd taken a few honors lit classes and then looked at the Princeton review to get an idea of the questions. Didn't seem too bad.</p>

<p>1) AP Calc BC
2) AP Physics B
3) AP Biology
4) AP Chemistry
5) dunno...</p>

<p>Psych is easy I heard. Absurdly easy.
AP Gov is just as easy.
AP Macro isn't that difficult either.</p>

<p>Some APs are just natural ability in the subject area. If these are your good subjects, you can easily review a little, take them, and do well.</p>

<p>English Lit
English Lang
AP US
AP World
Human Geo
Stat
Econ (To a lesser Extent)</p>

<p>Some APs have only a small amount of factual material, and these are the ones people easily "cram" for right before the test.</p>

<p>Gov
Psych
Econ (Somewhat)</p>

<p>Cramming makes sense for that General Education requirement that doesn't have anything to do with your major. Why take a chance with having to spend more than 4 years at college to finish, when you could eliminate useless courses with a few hours of study. You'll be able to focus on the things that truly interest you and that matter for getting the degree once you're at school.</p>

<p>gee...some of you people have no life</p>

<p>Amongst those that are easy are English Language and Literature, Physics C: K + EM, Calculus BC, Economics: Macro + Micro, World + US + European History, Psychology, Statistics, Government, Chemistry, et cetera.</p>

<p>^ Why don't you just call all 37 AP's?</p>

<p>1) Psych
2) Environmental
3) Human Geo.
4) Statistics
5) US History</p>

<p>^^that list is wrong.....here's the revised...</p>

<p>1) psych
2) Human geo.
3) environmental
4) us gov't
5) economic (macro/micro)</p>

<p>from what i've taken ... IMHO...
1. AP Spanish Language
2. AP US History
3. AP Calculus AB
4. AP European History
5. AP English Language</p>

<p>i think you missed the title of the post......."easiest AP's to SELF-STUDY for"</p>

<p>and in my opinion, if i had to self-study for any of the ones i took, it would be in that order from easiest to least easiest. k? thanks</p>

<p>so, i self-studied these ap subjects</p>

<p>us hist (5)
world hist (3)
eng lang (3)
us govt (4)
chem (3)</p>

<p>take 'em for what you will...</p>
