I personally did not use Khan Academy but I obviously know many students who have. If it works for you, then no problem! You just have to find a studying technique that works best for you to retain information.
Not helpful for like history and stuff, so if you have a specific topic that you are really unsure about then khan will explain it to you but it is too specific and you don't really need all that info, for math: KHAN IS GOD
pls answer can i give my ap exam after acceptance cuz i am giving it on may 2022 and still write it on my application that i am giving ap exams in future? thanks!!
I currently have a C+ in AP Environmental Science but my teacher said at the beginning of the year that he'll give an A to anyone that gets a 5, so a lot is on the line Although, I'm only applying to music conservatories so my grades don't matter too much
He probably didn’t want to go into medical field so he didn’t bother, which colleges look for what classes could possibly help your background knowledge on your future major which his prob wasn’t biology or chem related
No, it usually doesn't matter; the changes between each year's edition are typically very minor. It will only matter if the exam structure has significantly changed (for example, the AP World History exam recently got rid of all material before 1200 CE, so old books might not be relevant anymore)
@@AchievEDPrep thank you very much for your response :-). So I am going to prepare now and do some exams for my applications although I am going to apply after 3 or 4 years, that is why I asked you about the years. Does it make sence to prepare now or would you recommend me sth else? :-)
Hey, thanks so much for posting this video! Does you know the best places to find practice exams online? My school doesn't offer AP courses, so I don't have a teacher with access to practices. Thank you!

@@AchievEDPrep why not they should abide by the policy. I would transfer to a college where it accepts all the credits so u get all your time and work counted that would be smart thing to do and u can apply to graduate school of your choice after
@@20891 Probably went to a highly selective school, such as the ones I am looking at just so it looks good in the future. Most top-tier schools (ex: Harvard) only accept specific AP exams, and it's generally the common AP's, such as AP Calc, AP Physics, AP Bio, AP Lang, AP Lit, etc.
@@Super-mr4yn I don’t think one needs to take so many AP classes to get into top schools . One takes it so they could get college credits that should be the idea. Also, if one does well in one or two AP classes that should be an indication that they could excel in college. Even without AP classes if one does well throughout high school and in top 5 of their graduating class it should a good enough standard. If they only grant AP credits for selected courses then it’s good to take them otherwise why bother not a smart thing to do to keep proving yourself and not get the credit for it . Back in the 70, 80s people were still getting into Harvard or Stanford and top schools without AP classes so what is the problem there. It’s money driven crap like the SATS and other test which doesn’t prove anything.
@@20891 I don't know if you responded to the wrong person, but I never said that you needed to get into a top school with only lots of AP credits lol. I know how the process works. I was saying that he probably didn't receive lots of AP credits because top schools only have selected AP classes they except credit from. You probably got a little twisted and went off on a tangent about something that maybe someone else said.
For someone with a good, but not great background in the subject, is 8 practice exams, one a week, enough to probably get a 5? How many practice exams did you normally take?
I'm taking 10 this year. I've actually read about a student who did this on Quora and he self studied for 7 of them. He ended up getting 6 5s and 4 4s, very high scores considering his course load and self studying. He would have probably scored all 5s if he had top tier tutoring and learning resources. Knowing how much you have to study every day definitely improves your efficiency. For example, if you have 2 textbooks for each of your 8 courses, and each book is an average of 600 pages long, with the exam 10 months away, you would have to complete a minimum of 3 pages per textbook per subject while also revising all previous material every second day and taking several practice tests and exams (at least 5 per section per subject) a month before the exams. According to Prepscholar, students looking to earn a 5 on an AP exam starting at an F grade/zero knowledge of the material, they must ideally study at least 80 hours total for one AP exam over the span of 10 months. That is 8 hours a month, or 2 hours a week.

Hey, loved the video. If you don't mind me asking, which uni did you end up attending?
What are your thoughts on using Khan Academy? Would you recommend that we take notes and then reread the notes... or is that ineffective?
I personally did not use Khan Academy but I obviously know many students who have. If it works for you, then no problem! You just have to find a studying technique that works best for you to retain information.
@@AchievEDPrep So, you do believe that rereading like per say the Princeton Textbook is a successful method?
Not helpful for like history and stuff, so if you have a specific topic that you are really unsure about then khan will explain it to you but it is too specific and you don't really need all that info, for math: KHAN IS GOD

I have a question how far back should I go for practice exams?

Does the "don't use textbooks" apply to students who are self-studying?
If you can pull out the bigger concepts from the book and not just focus on all the nitty-gritty details then go for it!
@@saggynards imo ap classes require all the nitty gritty information... theyre extremely specific
4 days until my ap chemistry exam
Interesting you didn’t take APs in other sciences, like Biology or Chemistry. Any particular reason?
He probably didn’t want to go into medical field so he didn’t bother, which colleges look for what classes could possibly help your background knowledge on your future major which his prob wasn’t biology or chem related
Hiiii okay so i'm from india and there are no teachers to teach us. Would self study be sufficient or should i find a tutor?
That's up to you. I personally don't think AP exams are important enough to warrant getting a tutor. If you can self-study, that would be great.
I got a 4 on my AP test today do you think more selective colleges will still give me that credit?
Does the year of the AP Preparing books matter? And does the years of taking the exams matter for the applications too? :-)
No, it usually doesn't matter; the changes between each year's edition are typically very minor. It will only matter if the exam structure has significantly changed (for example, the AP World History exam recently got rid of all material before 1200 CE, so old books might not be relevant anymore)
