Which book is most similar/prepares you best for the AP exams? ie. Barrons, Princeton Review...
I'm trying to purchase books for psychology, english lit, and world history but I'm not sure where to go. I already have a Cracking the AP US History exam book because someone recommended it to me, but I am not sure what the other versions are like.

I would appreciate any help.

Well I just found this Barron's How to Prepare for the AP World History Exam in my library on the free books shelf and it looks new. It has summarizes of chapters in my AP World History book organized by civilization/country. It looks pretty resourceful.

Barrons is usually always a good source for AP & SAT

I personally like Princeton Review and REA.

Princeton Review gave really easy regurgitation of Calculus and it really helped me prepare. As for the REA, I simply liked how they sorted out the information. As for Barrons and 5 Steps to a Five, I didn't find those very helpful. It's all subjective though, and how you prefer the explanations.

I second Barron's for AP World History as well as US. I guess it's different for everyone, I switched Kaplan to Barrons for Bio SAT II's.

I always buy Princeton Review, if the bookstore carries it. I just like the way they word things sounds simpler and as though it was written by "normal" people, haha. I have the English Lit book, but haven't cracked it open yet.
