What Ap exam is harder, chemistry or biology?

Question

Is it better the study the chem school book, or get a few review guides?

Answer 1

AP chemistry is harder than Bio. You should use the text and review books at the same time. Well you should see what is better for you. The textbook will obviously give you much more information but it is also harder the comprehend it. Review books tell you the information in a much more general way. For Chemistry i used the Kaplan book and it helped me a lot. I really didn't use my text book that much. I prefer my review books

Answer 2

In my opinion, AP bio is easier. It really just comes down to whether you are better at wrote memorization (biology) or at understanding and using processes and math to get a result (chemistry).

Overall, slightly fewer people pass the Chem than the Bio test.

AP chem grade distribution:

5 - Extremely Well Qualified  15.3

4 - Well Qualified 18.0

3 - Qualified 23.0

2 - Possibly Qualified 18.5

1 - No Recommendation 25.3

Bio:

5 - Extremely Well Qualified 19.3

4 - Well Qualified 20.3

3 - Qualified 21.2

2 - Possibly Qualified 23.2

1 - No Recommendation 15.9

As far as studying goes, get a review book.

Answer 3

also the review book after finishing your text book chapter thoroughly.
