So here is the problem. I just took a practice multiple choice test from the AP chemistry exam from 1994, and i got a 3.
However, whenever i do the Questions in the princeton review, I get almost all of them right. I got the sense that the questions from the 1994 exam were sort of different from the ones in the princeton review.
So for the upcoming AP chemistry exam this tuesday, should i study more from the Princeton review or old AP tests? TO people that have taken the more recent AP chemistry exams from like 2004 and onward: Are the princeton review practice tests better preparation for this upcoming exam or are the old AP chemistry exams from like 1980 better practice?
Princeton review is okay, but Barrons makes the best study guide for all the AP tests, period. Their tests are 2x harder than the actual test, but it prepares you so well for them. After you do well on the Barrons tests and you take the actual AP test, you have a huge relief when the problems are wayyy easier.

Old AP exams are good, but the AP Chem exam completely changed its format a couple of years ago, so test questions from 1980 and 1994 should be sort of different from the current version of the AP. PR (the latest version) should be fine to help you be prepared.
