AP classes?

Question

how hard are they really?

were you prepared for the test?

what are good books to help you?

Answer 1

I would say that it depends on the class/test since I have not taken every single one.  Some of the classes are easy, but the tests can be a different story.  The best advice I ever received is to study an hour a day.  That may seem like a lot, but think about it.  If you pass the exam and obtain the required score for the college of your choice, that is less time you will have to spend in college and less money you or your parents will have to spend.  It depends on the person too.  If you haven't already, you need to develope good study habits.  Just read the book, listen to your teacher, study for each test, and review throughout the year for the AP exam and NOT just two weeks before.  The princeton review is a wonderful study aid along with flash cards if that it something that has helps you as well.  Visit the collegeboard website.  Also, join a productive study group and you will be just fine.  One last thing, don't overload yourself and know your limit.  Do these things and you wil be prepared just as I was and many of my classmates. =]
