Like what many people say, you are going to be receiving opinions more than facts. But I'd say that AP Physics C, the AP language courses (if one isn't a native speaker in the subject), & AP Bio (Much more memorization than any of the other AP's) are by far the toughest...

Easiest... Psychology, Env. Science, and Stats!

The rest really matter by how good of a student you are in the rest of the subjects..

hardest AP

I don't think this question can be answered. The exams are curved from year to year. Harder exams still have roughly the same number of 3s, 4s, and 5s as an easier exam in the same subject the next year. For me, U.S. Government and Politics is the easiest. I took AP USG, APUSH, APEH, AP English Lang., AP English Lit and AP Psych. 4's or 5's in all of them.

AP Computer Science A is by far the easiest AP I've taken. There was only one MC question where I had any kind of doubt as to what the answer was and that was after narrowing it down to 2 choices. Then the free response was fairly easy as well, sure it made you think out of the box somewhat and I made a stupid casting mistake but whatever. I seriously believe I came fairly close to get a perfect score on it.

I think this exam is so easy because the material for it is meant to be covered all in one semester so the second semester was spent reviewing and preparing for the AP. We probably did every FR and MCQ available because by the end of the second semester the teacher was giving us questions we had already done.

As for the hardest exam, English cuz I suck at writing

I've only taken two so far...from last year.

APUSH was easiest for me, but hey...that's just me. Easy 5 for me without studying.

Easiest thus far was definitely Computer Science AB. Of course, I only had under 100% once in the whole time we were in class, so... lol

Hardest for me was AP English Language, I think. x.x;

someone said that couple months ago and now...today after being of the people who took the 2006 Stats exam...i would have to say that Stats is now one of the hardest exams...especially if its headed into being a harder exam like this years.
