Welcome to the 5 Steps to a 5 AP Environmental Science (APES) review book! This book contains the information you need to be successful on the APES exam. In 2019, the College Board changed many things about the APES exam and course. I have written this book so that it is completely aligned to the curriculum framework that the College Board laid out. Every practice question in the chapters, on the diagnostic exam, and on the two practice exams are written as closely to how they will be tested on the actual exam as possible.

Keep in mind that the test will be difficult, but with hard work and a plan in place, you will have a very good chance at earning college credit. This book will take you step-by-step through each topic and each type of question. There are different strategies on how you should approach your studying depending on when you start studying and how much time you have to devote to your studies spelled out in . Pick the strategy that works best for you and stick with it!
