    Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

    ⭐Somewhat more confusing than helpful. Think strongly before buying especially if you arent a reader. May help with basic concepts

    ⭐I noticed that this book appeared to be in demand. My child is still taking AP chemistry at this time, so I can’t completely assess how helpful this book is to her until she finishes. What I can say is that we checked this book out at the library first and then purchased.

    ⭐I’m a senior in high school that decided to take AP Chem as my final credit I didn’t know what i was getting myself into this subject is very difficult however with this book studying at home became much easier and as the title implies dumb’s down a lot of the material i would easily recommend this book for anyone taking this course especially for the price.

    ⭐This didn’t seem very useful to her or all that simplified. Or maybe she just didn’t read it who knows.

    ⭐Its a brief one and is good for those who have already known the fundamental stuff of chem. Not recommended for beginner.

    ⭐pages tear easily

    ⭐An Awesome book that was very helpful for my neice as a senior in high school, she passed her test with flying colors!

    ⭐Bought this for our son. He said that it is a good book containing a lot of useful information. It has helped him a great deal.
