"Steal oops I mean burn this book - to steal a few words from Jerry Rubin" according to J. K. Langlois. As an AP teacher, I often pick up the various study guides in order to recommend some of the better selections. This is not one of my recommendations by any stretch of the imagination! For one, the format is nothing like the AP Exam. The questions are erratic and disjointed.
