If you study an hour a day, you should be more than fine. Well, what 8 AP tests are they?

An hour a day isn't bad at all -- you'll be amazed how quickly the time passes, and you'll feel much more confident when you're done. The hardest part of studying for me is just starting, but once I do, it's very easy to finish out. Since we have a lot of time until the AP tests, I'd just start with a class a day, maybe two later on.
