What is a good AP review book to complement this textbook?

<p>It seems that the “best” review book for any subject depends on the situation of the person using it. </p>

<p>Apparently my AP class is a blow off, and the teacher isn’t very good, so I might have to rely on myself, for the most part. </p>

<p>The textbook we’re using is Zumdahl’s fifth edition (Chemistry). For anyone who has had to rely on this textbook (even a later edition), how would you describe the book’s usefulness to prepare for the exam? I want to avoid buying a review book that has the same characteristics as my textbook, but can still help me with my situation.</p>

<p>I have some idea about different review books (PR is easy; Barron’s is too detailed), though more is welcome. :)</p>

<p>I used that textbook and used no prep book and was able to get a 5 on the test. Then again, my teacher was amaaazing and would give us FRQs to practice every week or so.</p>

<p>I used Zumdahl’s last year, but my class never used it that much. I only read the first 5 chapters an then stopped. My teacher wasn’t the greatest teacher either, so I self-studied and got a 4 on the exam. I really didn’t study too much for AP Chem, but I am the sort of person that picks up math quickly. I am not sure if it’ll be the same for you.</p>
