<p>any ideas?</p>
<p>I don’t see why it matters, but I think Barron’s does pretty well for AP Calc. The problems are a bit harder, I hear, but all the better to prepare you for the real thing.</p>
<p>I’ve used Barron’s for most of my studying. I don’t remember all of it (actually, I probably ONLY remember the extremes), but here are some that stick out in my memory:</p>
<p>AP Psychology–good review of material</p>
<p>AP Physics C and AP Chem–good review, good prep for the exam, however there are many mistakes–incorrect values for constants (often different values from page to page) and occasionally wrong “correct answers” for practice problems</p>
<p>AP English Language–writer’s voice is very arrogant, and not much was actually covered. Very unhelpful book</p>
<p>AP Econ–more abbreviations (which will NOT be on the exam) than actual material covered. Again, not very helpful</p>
<p>Barron’s almost always has typos and mistakes in it. Usually you can count on Barron’s for thoroughly covering the material, but sometimes you’re unlucky and you get a book that isn’t helpful at all. In my last year of taking APs I switched to Princeton Review.</p>
<p>As lidusha said, Barron’s is amazing for AP Psychology.</p>
<p>Over time, people have suggested barron’s for Human Geography, Psychology, and Statistics. I think that’s about it.</p>
<p>I used Barron’s for Statistics and just briefly for Calculus. I found that the problems were more difficult than necessary for Calculus, but Barron’s is a great resource for Statistics.</p>
<p>All I know is that Barron’s is good for Statistics and Psychology.</p>
<p>Barron’s is solid for AP Human Geography. I used it for AP World History and got a 5, but it wasn’t especially strong in convering trends; it was more like a condensed textbook.</p>
