REVIEW BOOKS & OTHER HELP THAT YOU CAN PURCHASE
AP PREP BOOKS:
AP Prep/Review books are all very helpful, but you are definitely NOT required to purchase one. If you are interested, they are available to order on Amazon (see links below) but many are also available immediately to view on the Apple Books App or Kindle. I prefer to write in my books, but if there is a delay in delivery, this is also an option!
- Crash Course AP World Modern
- Princeton Review
- Barron's Review
- Kaplan Review
- AMSCO Review (most thorough detail)
NOTE: OLD VERSIONS ARE ACCEPTABLE! If you have one from an older sibling, use it!
