AP® Environmental Science

Original price was: $99.00.Current price is: $49.00.

APES explores how Earth’s systems work and how human activities affect them. You’ll study ecosystems and biodiversity, populations, Earth systems and resources, land and water use, energy resources, atmospheric/aquatic pollution, and global change—always through the lens of systems thinking and sustainability. Expect to interpret data, read graphs and maps, run quick calculations (rates, efficiencies, unit conversions), and apply models to real-world scenarios. Each sub-unit in your practice set includes 20 questions to build the skills needed for both MCQs and FRQs.
