micro part was very easy to grasp and helped a lot, macro was a bit of a pain, but good book, nice read

i never actually used this book lol, theres a qr code on every barron's book which gives you access to 5 decently accurate AP tests. i literally went to the library, scanned the code, and noped outta there

10/10 practice tests they really helped when i couldnt find past exams :D

I don’t want to hear a single word about the fact that this is on my bookshelf

A good study book, but I would recommend just watching YouTube videos before the test (if it is online every again). If it isn't online, then buy one of these books and underline the heck out of it.
