TEST-PREP BOOKS*
I use the following books as additional resources to prepare my students for the AP exam. The first two books below are written by experienced teachers that are also actual AP Physics Readers. This gives the authors particular insight into the approaches to topics and problem solving that will be most helpful to students.
These books are by far the best in the market!
