Excellent prep book, December 3, 2009 By K. Sauceda "Env. Science"
This is an excellent book for preparing for the AP human geography exam. It puts everything you need to know together into an easy-read book, full of practice questions and mini quizzes to ensure one will succeed on the real test. I am self studying this class, and this has been and will continue be a huge help. I am not worried at all for this test with this excellent prep-book. Highly recommended. I have Barron's as well, and not only is this book easier to read and formatted better, but it seems to provide much more needed information than Barron's.
Great book!, January 2, 2010 By San Fran Mom "Education Counts"
I bought this for my daughter--she reads her textbook along with this review. Her grade has jumped 15 points in her AP class! The book is just the right length for my teen and has some fascinating facts spread throughout the book. In fact, I find myself reading the book, too, just to learn about this unique topic. My daughter also likes the mini-quizzes in each chapter and the practice AP test questions. I think the strongest feature of the book is the fact that it is written with the student in mind; it is a great companion to this AP course. DEFINITELY the right choice for my daughter!
Great help!, November 5, 2009 By Harry Potter "Jake scates"
This book has really helped me with my AP class. It is written in a way that explains the key ideas in the course and has great practice questions and review drills. The practice exams are tough but good practice....I like that all questions are explained so you can learn from the practice. Definitely recommend it.
