Strive for a 5: Preparing for the AP® Environmental Science Examination is a workbook designed to help students evaluate their understanding of the material covered in the student textbook, to reinforce key concepts, and to prepare students for success on the AP® Environmental Science Exam. There are two sections in the Strive for a 5, a study guide section and a test preparation section. The study guide contains a detailed reading guide for students to use as they study the chapter with between 100 and 200 comprehension questions per chapter. There are also vocabulary exercises, math practice problems, and review questions, as well as FRQ practice questions and two full practice cumulative exams.

Essentials of Environmental Science is ideal for a one-semester course. It takes the same non-biased approach as its parent text, teaching students to think critically about data presented. In addition to being briefer, Essentials is even more accessible placing less emphasize on math calculations. The coverage of ecology, agriculture, energy, and water has also been streamlined to provide a more focused treatment of the science concepts.

This text is designed to help students evaluate their understanding of the material covered in the main textbook, Environmental Science for AP® by the same authors. It reinforces key concepts from the text and prepares students for success on the AP® Environmental Science Exam. This title includes a study guide aligned with Friedland and Relyea Environmental Science for the AP® course, Second Edition and essential tips and test preparation.
