I know that other people have asked this question before, but I need more opinions. I made a list of books that seem popular.Princeton Reviewhttp://www.amazon.com/Cracking-U-S-History-Exam-College/dp/0375428976/ref=pd_bbs_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234665191&sr=8-1Cliff Noteshttp://www.amazon.com/United-States-History-Cliffs-AP/dp/0764586904/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234665322&sr=8-45 Steps to a 5http://www.amazon.com/History-Second-Advanced-Placement-Examinations/dp/0071476318/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234665373&sr=8-3Kaplanhttp://www.amazon.com/Kaplan-AP-U-S-History-2009/dp/1419552481/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234665493&sr=8-6Barronhttp://www.amazon.com/Barrons-History-Advanced-Placement-Examination/dp/0764136844/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234665581&sr=1-2Newmanhttp://www.amazon.com/United-States-History-Preparing-Examination/dp/1567656609/ref=cm_syf_dtl_txt_1_rysdsd0REAhttp://www.amazon.com/AP-United-States-History-REA/dp/0738602183/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234666907&sr=1-2
 
I bought Princeton for my AP Euro exam that I have this year. I've heard good things about it.
 
I took AP world and AP US in high school. I got a 5 on world and a 4 on US. I found princeton review to be the best (actually for all APs i took i used princeton review. i find it presents the info in an interesting/memorable way). Good luck!
 
Barrons!! cliff notes is good too. Between the two, they cover everything. However, the best way to a good score on the APUSH test is a good teacher. No matter how much you study review books (like a friend of mine) even if you're a visual learner, your score won't be as cool as if you heard it, day after day, from somebody who has been teaching it for years. Oh, taking the previous tests could help too, the ones they release. I don't know, cause I didn't take them.
 
5 Steps to a 5 hands down. I used that book the night before the AP test last year for some last minute cramming and got a 5....after skipping 1/4 of the Multiple Choice section due to falling asleep during the test...XD
