| We really need to consolidate this thread, and the list, once more. It's sort of getting out of hand.
If you want to pass an exam without a textbook, and you have a good amount of time, then Barron's is the way to go. Do note that it has a lot of extraneous information, and the tests are more difficult than the real AP's, but if you study out of it, you are assured at least a 4, in my opinion. Princeton Review's books are good, but cover less information, and are better for studyers without a lot of time to spare. If you think you have time to read through the review books before the exam, go for Barron's. Otherwise, Princeton Review is the way to go.
For European History and Psychology, I personally am going to get textbooks from my teachers and get the Princeton Review books this year. This strategy's worked for 6 other AP's before, and will hopefully work this year again. |
