Customer Reviews

One of the Two Top Flash Card Products for AP Biology
I agree with another reviewer that this is one of the top two flash card products for AP Biology; the other being AP Biology Flashcard Quicklet: Flashcards in a Book for Biology Students. I have used both and here is my review:
1. This Product: This is very good if you like loose cards. The order of the topics covered is rather random. Some cards are very brief, that is, may be for brevity. You have lot of space on the cards to write. There are enough number of cards. You should have already prepared from a Study Guide before trying these cards.

2. AP Biology Flashcard Quicklet: Flashcards in a Book for Biology Students. This is very good if you like flash cards in a book. The answers to the questions are very comprehensive and self-contained. The topics and cards are presented in a logical order. It's an excellent tool for a quick review if you have already prepared from a Study Guide. Because the cards are self-contained, you can use this book with any study guide or without any atudy guide.

Great Tool to Prepare for the AP Biology Exam
This is a great tool to prepare for the AP Biology Exam, if you like loose cards. If you like flash cards in the book, then I will suggest AP Biology Flashcard Quicklet by Paul Sanghera...I have both of them...and they are great...

More illustrations might be helpful
Over 500 cards are present in this big box of cards, and the content is given at the back of the cards. However, I had to use rubber bands to sort out all of the cards by topic (they should have given tabs for the cards), and I would have learned and reviewed everything a lot faster if there are more illustrations and diagrams. Overall, still very good, but not the best. Barron's could have done better.
