5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful book. Well worth the money., February 16, 2005
By Stacy (99) (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This book was very helpful for studying for my AP Biology Exam. It showed me what to know for the test. Ecology, Five kingdoms, the cell,etc. were all written very clear to study from--very thorough. I also highly recommend: The Ultimate Study Guide for Biology: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Patrick Leonardi Volume 1, 2 and 3. These three study guides were especially helpful for the multiple choice section of the AP Exam. This is because the complexity of the questions were similar to AP type.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear and Concise Review, August 13, 2005
I purchased this book 2 months prior to the AP biology in 2005. I hadn't started reviewing the AP topics before that, although I was competent in our AP biology class at school. The book was a great resource for me. It doesn't require much previous knowledge and is able to summarize huge concepts in a couple of paragraphs and make the reader get the whole picture. The practice questions at the end of the chapters were very helpful because they accurately measured how well one had understood the topic. I am pleased with all aspects of the book. I got a 5 and I think I partly owe it to the clear and comprehensive review of this book

5.0 out of 5 stars Chockful of information, May 9, 2006
I decided to skim through Kaplan AP Biology a few days before the AP Biology exam. This book is BIG, a lot thicker than the Princeton Review's version. Although there is a TON of helpful information in this book, it did go too much in detail for the AP exam itself. I was worrying so much about specifics because this book goes into detail in a lot of topics (which it did a good job of), but when I took the AP exam, the multiple choice section was a breeze, and the free-response was very doable. Better to be overprepared than underprepared, though, so I am glad that I skimmed this book.

I believe this book is more useful for the AP Biology class over the course of a year. There were topics like evolution and genetics that I was shaky on because our biology book provided so much information that it was confusing to digest, but Kaplan summarized topics - less than the college text but more than, say, Princeton Review, which tends to provide students with JUST enough for the AP exam. The summaries of the 12 recommended labs, genetics, and ecology were so helpful that even though I did not need about 80% of what I had read for the actual AP exam, I am glad that I have this information downpat for future use!

My analysis therefore is: This is an informative book with an excellent summaries. However, do not read this big book cover to cover the night before the exam because it is long and oftentimes more specific than you need to be for the AP exam. You'll probably end up despairing over the fact that there's so much information and panic, which is not a good idea!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not So Bad After All
I reviewed for the AP using this book. I only read the first three chapters or so, and read the lab portion (which, by the way, is extremely helpful). Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars great book
This book is very good. I didn't take any AP biology class. I just went through a text book and skimmed this prep book and landed myself a 5. Beware of lab questions though. Read more
