 Rating:  - NOT GOOD for a high school Review BookVery technical. Overly technical and obscure techniques lead students away from what they are supposed to do for the test.

Therefore, I would only recommand to people who are planning to take the form 'A' test. Try "Be Prepared for the AP Computer Science Exam by Maria Litvin" (which is also avalible on Amazon.com) to get a better prepare! But afterall, ... Read More
