1.0 out of 5 stars This book is full of misprints and other errors!, December 2, 1999

This review is from: Advanced Placement Examination, Biology (AP Program) (Paperback)

I have receieved a 5 on the May, 1999 AP Biology Exam, and one of my aids was this book, which I found to be completely worthless. The book lacks much information with only about the first 75 pages of large print text actually being dedicated to teaching you a whole year's worth of AP Biology! The rest of the book is just sample tests which look unprofessionally made and some questions are ambiguous. I was so frustrated with this book because the many misprints that it contained, I seriously do not recommend anyone who is taking the AP Biology exam to buy this book, instead, buy the Cliff's Notes for AP Biology, that is the best book ever for the exam, after reading that, I completely understood every aspect of Biology.

2.0 out of 5 stars Another OK prep book, December 26, 1999

This review is from: Advanced Placement Examination, Biology (AP Program) (Paperback)

I bought this book by winter and read it on the plane in winter break. Although the review was very short, it has 6 sample tests, which are very similar, but somehow easier than the AP exams. I suggest you should get the Cliff Notes is you have a lot of time. Otherwise, this book will be fine.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this one, September 7, 2003

This review is from: Advanced Placement Examination, Biology (AP Program) (Paperback)

This book is terrible for reviewing for the AP biology exam. It has little review of the subject, and what review it has is almost worthless. The practice exams are extremely easy, and give fasle confidence for the test. I got a 5 on the 2003 exam, but it certainly was not due to this book.
