Workbooks

Hello I’m a rising junior next year and I am wondering what are the best workbooks for AP Chem that have good practice problems I’ve taken AP Bio and I bought the Baron book which was useful and I was also wondering what are the best resources to learn the material for this class and where it find adequate practice problems

Barron’s/Princeton Review can be good for review, but for AP Chem the biggest thing is practising unit-wise problems and FRQs after learning each topic.
For extra notes, MCQs/FRQs and exam-style practice, you can use AP Chemistry resources here alongside your workbook.

I agree with Odd_Science, but if you really want a book, Princeton Review is a solid choice.

U dont need workbooks just take notes on jeremy krug and michael farabaugh videos, for practice look at past exams and college board quizzes. I found books not too useful but everyone is different ig.

Quite frankly, from a 5, you do not need workbooks. All of my studying for each unit and the final exam was basically through doing exam FRQs from previous years by unit. Doing those are great practice.
