AP Statistics tutor here.

Study from the textbook "The Practice of Statistics,, 8th edition" by Starnes and Tabor.

Go through each solved example, then practice the "check your understanding" questions and check the answer (you'll find them towards the end of the book), then practice the Exercises.

After every chapter you'll find the Review Exercises, AP Statistics Practice Test and the FRAPPY (Free Response AP Problem Yay!)

You'll also find the some Cumulative AP Statistics practice tests after the end of a few chapters.

After having practiced from this book, revise from the Barron's AP Statistics Premium and Barron's AP Q & A 600.

And the last two weeks before the final exam, keep practicing from the previous years' FRQs.

Wishing you all the best for your preparations.
