3.0 out of 5 stars not for independent study, but otherwise great!, July 24, 2006
By Nicholas (Hartford, ct, usa) - See all my reviews
I studied this book independently for the AP environmental science exam. It is definitely well written and delineates many concepts in the test in a simple easy to learn manner. Unfortunately, it is a short book and only contains about 3/5 of what you need to know to get a perfect score. I assume that this would probably work if someone had taken a class as well, but on its own this will only get you a 3, tops. I answered the questions on the topics found in the book easily, but about 2/5 of the test were on concepts not in the book. Getting a 3 is pretty good considering my only exposure to this topic was in this very short study guide, but unfortunately the college I'm going to accepts no less than a 4, and my efforts were thus meaningless.
Nonetheless, I reccomend this book, but only in addition to other sources or an environmental science/studies class. This book only has 3/5 of what you need to know, but again, that 3/5 is extremely well presented.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely AMAZING!, August 30, 2005
I just finished reading a copy of "The Smartypants' Guide to the AP Environmental Science Exam" by Michelle Mahanian and it was absolutely AMAZING! So far, I have been suggesting to my students to avoid study guides for the AP exam and focus on the class notes, since all of the review books I encountered for APES were filled with useless information. However, from now on, the Smartypants book is going to be REQUIRED READING for all of my students. I've already bought a class set! There is a free preview version of the book available at the website. This is where I purchased my copy. The website is:

This book is excellent preparation for the APES exam and will undoubtedly serve as an invaluable resource to any class!

1.0 out of 5 stars More APES junk!!!, April 5, 2007
By Peter V. Tonsoline (Depew, New York United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review book was such a disappointment that I can hardly find the words to describe its uselessness. It was a collection of note pages of material any teacher would skim over. The review questions provided were minimum. When I received this book, I paged through it, and immediately asked authorization to return it back to Amazon. I have been teaching AP Environmental Science for six years out of my 37 years of teaching and still have yet to find an adequate, complete review book for this course. For the quality and the price of this book, I would probably consider it on the very bottom.
