About this title

From the Inside Flap

The Princeton Review realizes that acing the AP Computer Science Exam is very different from getting straight A's in school. We don't try to teach you everything there is to know about computer science-only what you'll need to score higher on the exam. There's a big difference. In Cracking the AP Computer Science A & AB Exams, we'll teach you how to think like the test makers and
-Focus on what the AP testers really want you to know with a complete review of Java language used on the exam
-Learn techniques to help you navigate the multiple-choice and
free-response questions
-Brush up specific skills with practice questions throughout the book and
full-length practice tests for the AP Computer Science A and AB exams
This book includes 2 full-length practice tests, one each for the AP Computer Science A and AB exams. All of our practice test questions are like the ones you'll see on the actual exam, and we fully explain every answer.
