What books would be helpful in learning AP Chemistry?
I know there's tutoring etc. Just give me titles of books that give good coverage over the topics.
Thanks in advance.

The Ap Chemistry textbook?

The one I got is "Chemistry, The Central Science"

True, that. But more AP/SAT II exam based.
I know Barron's pretty good, my friends recommended them. Are there any better than Baron's?

There isn't really any other brand that I can think of that is better than Barron's, but some other good brands are REA, Kaplan, and Princeton Review

Stick with the book Tech gives you. Very effective and useful. I took AP Chem in Tech and I'm taking CHE 101 again because I'm an intended Biomed Major and they suggest you take it anyway even if you have credit from it to prep you for the MCAT... and we're using the same textbook (11th edition though). Doing great and getting an A so far.

Princeton Review is also a great tool. But again, I highly recommend just reading the text - it's VERY useful. If you are diligent and willing to go virtual - try masteringchemistry.com for prep materials
