>> the new dust collector 3000
my class was pretty comprehensive so i never found a need to use this book other than the required taking notes after each chapter It s all good though
>> Good but not quite right
This book was well written and has a good amount of visuals which help a lot in understanding concepts in environmental science
However good the book was it didn t seem to reflect what was on the actual AP exam very well
It claimed that pollution would be about 30 of the test when really I only remember a handful questions on pollution Also not everything that was on the exam was covered
So it s good but it didn t quite hit the mark for what the APES exam actually is and covers
>> There are Better Books Out There
This book has been very frustrating to read I have found many errors for example life life I think they meant half life and many other typos The content is too general I know it s suppose to be a review book but I feel like they could have built on ideas a little more The review questions at the end of each chapter address things that either don t come up until the following chapters or that don t even come up at all In addition some of the answers to the multiple choice questions are wrong Overall this book is not worth the money My advice would be to go to the collegeboard webiste a purchase a more qualified review book there
