self study AP

Next year, I am considering self studying for an AP test. I will be taking AP US History, Psychology, and Stats. I have narrowed it down to Enviormental Science, Human Geography, or comparative government.

I haven't taken either course (neither have my friends) so I don't have any experience regarding them. I would highly suggest self studying Macro/Micro. They only take 1-2 months to study for and they were easy 5s imo

I haven't taken Human Geo, but I have taken APES. From what I've heard, Human Geo is supposed to be one of the easiest (if not the easiest) AP exams... which would make me think it would be good for self-study. APES involves a lot of information, so I'd really only go for that if you're good at picking up and keeping information.

You should do US government (even though it's not on your list). It goes well with US history. I took apush and self studied us gov't (using Princeton Review)...5's on both.
