Summary: Get this book if you're taking AP Calculus
Comment: I purchased this book nine months before the test date but I did not study the book until three days before the test date.
Three days before the date, I did the AB practice test. It took me about 3-4 hours, and I got about half wrong. Two days before, I went over all the problems I missed and I copied down the solutions in red pen on the margin. The day before the test, I did another set of practice test. This time, I got about 12 wrong, and by this time I was really familiar with the test format and concepts I should know.
The multiple choice part of the actual test wasn't very hard. But the essay part was REALLY HARD. But I managed to write something down on every problem. Looking back, I think that it is my actual Calc class that helped me to do the essay part. (I only used the practice part of the book...)
I ended up with a 5, and considering I didn't know about 80% percent of Calculus, I think this book really helped me on getting my score.

Summary: The best AP Calc prep you can get!
Comment: Princeton's famous for great AP Prep (in most cases, anyways), and they certainly executed the AP Calc book well! The review is concise but thorough, and every subject is basically covered. Very impressed by the examples and tests provided in this book. Certainly the best choice!
Rating: 4
Summary: It is an average book
Comment: The actual free responses on AP exam were very hard. This book has very easy multiple choice section and free response section. Try not to depend too much on this book for practice tests. However, it does sharpen your knowledge about all the concepts, which are very important to know for the exam. I did manage to get a 4 in 2002. The free response section was the killer.
