 The best AP Chemistry book December 1, 2009

This Princeton Review AP Chemistry book is very concise and accurate. I use it as a reference for my high-school chemistry, SAT II Chemistry, and AP Chemistry students.
If you want even more examples and exercises, combine this book with Schaum's Beginning Chemistry Third Edition by David E. Goldberg.
A top reference for any student's study collection November 13, 2009

Paul Foglino's CRACKING THE AP CHEMISTRY EXAM, 2010 EDITION offers similar coverage: if it's on the AP Chemistry Exam, it's in this book - from tables and diagrams to the basics of writing great essays. From planning for the test to using resources, this is a top reference for any student's study collection.

This book conveys more usable info with fewer words than any other book I can think of.
While the book is great for its purpose -- preparing for the AP exam -- it should also be considered for use during class as a concise summary (or preview) of the points on each topic. Sometimes texts suffer from using too many words -- the student drowns in the words as he/she seeks the point. This book lays out the punch line right at the beginning, with a concise explanation.
Just what we were looking for... May 23, 2010

My daughter had to have a study guide for AP Chem exam. This is the one the teacher recommended and we got it (and on time too) and she used it to study for her exam.
Worked out well.
 Pretty good (I got a 5) July 16, 2010

I took AP Chemistry last year, and I just found out yesterday, I got a 5. This is the only book I used. This is a fairly comprehensive review book. It covers everything that's on the exam at least in passing. One thing I should stress, though: it's a review book. Not a textbook. If you want to self-study for the AP exam, then using this book to do so is going to be very difficult. However, if you have taken a course in AP Chemistry or something similar, and you need to brush up on your knowledge of certain topics, then this book will come in handy. It's got some good mnemonic devices (Red Cat, An Ox for reduction-cathode, oxidation-anode). I found the practice tests at the end to be fairly representative of the real thing, if maybe a tad easier. But, overall, if you can do the practice exams, you're probably going to get a 4 or a 5.
