  • If it had not been for the AP® Crash Course, our students would have been discouraged and floundered. The book is a marvelous tool that helps students make connections and see relationships that cement their learning. The author skillfully includes proven hints and pivotal topic summaries. The AP* Crash Course is not only a tool for test preparation, but a sturdy companion to consult as the course develops.
