5 Steps to a 5: AP Physics 1: Algebra-Based 2017 (McGraw-Hill 5 Steps to A 5)

I bought this for my daughter. She used it for part of her prep for this AP exam. When asked if she liked it she replied, " Well I got a % so I guess it was pretty good!" We are so proud of her. She is an excellent student and works hard. I feel like this study guide helped her achieve a great score.

YES YES YES. THIS IS THE KEY TO GETTING A 5!!! I cracked it open the night before, did ALL the content and aced my test. ALTHOUGH the tests in these aren't that great. I'd suggest using this for the content and SUPER helpful tips on how to attack the problem.

good book

Great book!! I would have never got a 4 on the AP exam if it wasn't for the deep but clear explanations in this book.

Pretty much the same as the 2016 book

This is a fantastic resource for review and practice in an AP Physics 1 course. I am a high school AP physics teacher, and have often been disappointed by third-party AP Physics review books (resources not published by the College Board). Because the authors and publishers of these books are not directly involved with writing AP tests, no resources is going to be perfect. But this book, in particular, does a outstanding job of explaining the structure of the AP Physics 1 exam problems. In addition, the author provides specific strategies to help students approach these problems in an informed, confident manner. What I like most is that the author, who is both a high school AP Physics teacher and an AP reader experienced with scoring exams, avoids the temptation to call any of his strategies "short cuts". The emphasis is on UNDERSTANDING physics concepts and on gaining confidence in problem solving through meaningful practice and hard work. This book is an outstanding resource for students willing to approach the study of physics with the desire to truly understand physics concepts, and to reap the rewards of focused and determined effort in doing so. I recommend it highly for students and teachers alike.

Great
