Hey all.
I’m thinking of taking the AP Music Theory test this year but I’m not sure if I should. I do have experience with ‘music’ as I have played piano for about 10 years, I’m in my school’s choir, and I have recently taken ABRSM’s grade 5 theory test. The scores haven’t come in yet but I’m planning to take grade 8 soon. Besides the short summary from collegeboard, I have no idea how the AP test is. Any advice? Is it hard? What books should I study from?
