AP Lang Review Book

What's the difference between the CliffsAP and Cliffsnotes AP review books? Are they different or did they just change the name from one year to another?

I think cliffnotes might be just summaries and not go indepth as much. I haven't personally looked at them though

I've tried CliffNotes, Peterson's, Princeton Review, and Barron's. Princeton Review was the best.

For the FRQs, I found Cliffs to be best.

One is best off relying on the FRQs posted at AP central rather than the ones in any book.

^^sorry if I wasn't clear.

What I meant is that in my opinion, I found Cliffs to have great advice,
tips, and strategies on tackling the FRQ section.
