All Access AP Exam Prep

Teens are busy! So, for many students, a self-paced customizable AP exam prep plan will be a lifesaver.

Using REA’s All Access AP Exam Prep guides and online tools students will follow a 3 step process to create a personalized study plan that will ensure success:

  1. Exam content review – Students start by reviewing all topics included on the AP exam.
  2. Assessment & Feedback – Next, students test themselves to understand what they know and where they need further help. Quizzes and mini-tests are provided.
  3. Score improvement – Finally, students create a study plan and personalized learning/review tools (e-Flashcards) to address the areas where they are weakest.

At the end of the review process students can take a full-length practice test to gain a better understanding of the AP exam format, timing, and scoring.

Additional benefits of the All Access AP Exam Prep system include:
