    3.0 out of 5 stars a bit harder than actual test, September 26, 2004
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the AP Calculus (Paperback)
    I bought two books, barrons' and Princeton's. The former was much harder to understand and contains more information than the latter. When I studied
    Princeton's, I was relieved, but when I studied barrons I
    became afraid that the test was really that hard. However,
    when I took the real test, I found that the actual test
    was more like Princeton's than Barrons'; and I got 5 on
    the exam. I recommend you to buy this book for experiencing
    the hardest questions that would be on the actual exam.
    If you only use Princeton's, you may be frustrated to find
    that there are some questions that aren't on the Princeton's
    practice exams.

    5.0 out of 5 stars IT'S GOOD!, February 26, 2003
    By Samuel Niaz (Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the AP Calculus (Paperback)
    I bought this book along with AP Calculus Princeton Commenting on the content of this book, I would agree that the questions are tougher. They are even tougher than the Princeton Review Problem Sets. My advice is that to use both books. The Princeton book is good for explaination and basic calculus Q's. The Barronn's is good for harder Q's and additional explaination to the (BC) parts of the book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, September 30, 2004
    By O'Young (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews
    This review is from: How to Prepare for the AP Calculus (Paperback)
    I had several sources to help me do well in AP Calculus AB. One of them was this book.

    Finney, Demana et al. "Calculus: Graphical, Numerical, Algebraic" just doesn't include enough problems. To boot, the presentation is pretty poor as too many images are bombarded at your eyes. Barron's includes a lot of extra problems for you to make sure you can apply what you know.

    Provided that you work hard in class and outside, this book can help you get a five.
