<p>I am really interested in Psy and Economics, so I am planning on taking IB Psy and Economics next year and self study AP Macro/Micro Economics and AP Psychology since my school only offers IB Psy and Economics.

  1. I am just wondering how much are IB/AP Psy and Economics similar to each other?
  2. Which books should I use in order to get 5`s on the AP exams. (Please be specific.) (PR,Barron, Mankiw? the name of the book and version)
  3. Are there other AP subjects that are suitable for self study?
  4. How long should I study for each AP exams?
  5. Are there any useful tips that work out for you?</p>

<p>BTW I also want to take AP physics and American history, Calculus BC, perhaps also comparative government.<br>

  1. Do AP physics, Calc BC and American history cover all the topics of SATII? Am I able to do well on SAT if I do well on AP exams? </p>

<p>“Do AP physics, Calc BC and American history cover all the topics of SATII?”
Huh? In the SAT II (I assume you mean the subject tests), the Math Level 1 test cover Algebra 1, Geometry & Algebra 2, while the Math Level 2 test cover everything in Math Level 1 plus Precalculus. AP Calc BC covers Calculus (duh), the 1st two semesters in a three semester Calculus sequence at colleges (more or less).</p>
