This book has to be the most concise, straightforward review out there. I was a freshman when I took AP English online, and I know that without this book, I would not have gotten a 5 on the AP exam! The sample tests are realistic and great preparation for the actual exam. Simply put...the creators of this book have realized that AP review does not need to be lengthy or intimidating; it needs to be effective.
I strongly, strongly recommend CiffsAP for English Language and Composition! No other brand does it better!

This reasonably priced text gives useful test-taking strategies, focused reviews of question types, and 6 full-length practice exams with sample responses and critique of those responses. I find it a very good supplement to regular classroom activities.

I bought this for my AP class and it's really helping. It gives you practice tests and practice essays.

I had a really bad experience with my AP Lang class; the teacher never did anything relevant to the AP exam, and all we did was read novels and put together scrapbooks that somehow related to the books. When May arrived, I knew that I was in trouble, and I borrowed this book from my library, and I absolutely attribute my 5 on the exam to it. The practice questions are extremely similar to the real thing, and the explanations are in the right line of thinking that you have to bring the exam in order to do well, and that's all that this exam is about, just how you think. The essay samples are also really well evaluated, and the book offers a glossary on literary terms that you'll have to know. The book is good for quick preparation (I literally had a little over a week with this book) and long-term practice (which is what I wish I had done instead of freaking out a week beforehand). This is definitely the book to get!

This book was needed by my son for school. The book stores could not get it for me. Dealing with Amazon was quick and easy and I received the product in great condition.
