Customer Reviews

Good!

For the price the book is excellent, it provides good listening practice with 3 Cds, and it is helpful to improve the reading skills with hard paragraps.

Helped a lot

Surprisingly, this book helped me to get a five on AP french. I usually hate Baron's, but this one is not so bad. However, i found some grammar mistakes. Some of the answers don't make sense at all. Overall, this book does help you with the AP test.

Not bad..

I'm French, although I haven't spoken French in a while. I decided to buy this book as a quick review for the AP French Language exam. I found it to be quite helpful, and it had a lot of practice. However, it was disturbing that the book made some egregious grammatical errors, mostly on the verb fill-ins.Nevertheless, a good prep tool. Cassettes will definately come in handy.

I recommend this book enthusiastically

I am a student who used this book to study for the AP French exam . I found the review material excellent. The tapes prepared me for the listening comprehension well and the questions asked were similar to those asked on the actual exam. The book also gives you useful advice on what the examiners are looking for in your essay, which, along with the speaking section counts for 50% of your score. With the help of this book, I was able to receive a score of 5 on the exam!

This a great book for teachers of any advanced French course

This is a great book for teachers of any advanced course. We don't have AP French in my high school but we do have IB French and this book has many useful tips that will also help students with the IB test. It is easy to use and has many ideas about preparing students for speaking and writing.
