<p>I need a prep book that covers all of the material on the test. I have taken 2 years of Physics, but my teachers for my first and second years were horrible and barely OK, respectively.<br>
What is the best prep book for the Physics SAT II?</p>
<p>Go with PR's AP book.</p>
<p>Wouldn't the AP book cover a superfluous amount of material for the SAT2?</p>
<p>Pr Is The Best By Far.</p>
<p>A Combination Of Pr + Kaplan Will Certainly Gurantee 750+.</p>
<p>Thanks for the advice. I am going for the third 800 for SAT2s, so I need the best books.</p>
<p>Has anybody tried Barron's?</p>
<p>barrons physics sucks big time. </p>
<p>but barrons maths is the best.</p>
<p>I took one year of physics with a 50 year-old burnt-out surfer for a teacher...horrible. I used Sparknotes and managed an 800 though.</p>
<p>for me, barrons + PR SAT II Physics = 800. Also, being in IB Physics doesnt help a bit, unless youre in HL.</p>
<p>So I should scrap Barron's and buy PR? Out of curiosity, what is so bad about Barrons?</p>
<p>Too much of the material in Barron's is superfluous. As a physics nerd (and somebody who will be majoring in it), I really suggest you go with PR. If any of the explanations in the PR book seem inadequate, you can always turn to the Internet..</p>
<p>Thanks! + Characters</p>
<p>I've just started going through the Princeton Review book, and so far it is EXCELLENT! I had planned on getting the Barron's one, but I heard that the explanations were confusing.</p>
<p>they are not just confusing..................but very very very very confusing!!!!!!!</p>
<p>i got an 800 on physics with barrons. to tell the truth though, i had already taken two years of physics and had tons of physics related experience, and only really used the barrons book for the practice tests (which were much like the actual test in difficulty and in variety). and i agree that for ap physics c use PR. make of that what you will...</p>
<p>i'm using kaplan. i heard it is good.</p>
