SUMMARY

Khan Academy's chemistry playlist on YouTube adequately covers the majority of SAT chemistry topics, making it a reliable resource for exam preparation. For self-studying AP Calculus AB without prior calculus knowledge, utilizing the Khan Academy calculus playlist up to the partial derivative video, combined with solving 3000 practice problems, is a solid strategy. However, supplementing this approach with a comprehensive calculus textbook, such as Schaum's Outline, is essential for a deeper understanding of the material.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with SAT chemistry topics
  • Basic understanding of calculus concepts
  • Access to Khan Academy's calculus and chemistry playlists
  • Ability to solve mathematical problems independently
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore the full Khan Academy chemistry playlist for SAT preparation
  • Study AP Calculus AB using a recommended textbook like Schaum's Outline
  • Practice calculus problems using online resources or problem sets
  • Investigate additional calculus video resources for varied explanations
USEFUL FOR

Students preparing for the SAT chemistry exam, individuals self-studying AP Calculus AB, and educators seeking effective teaching resources for calculus and chemistry topics.

Quick Questions: Does Khan Academy chemistry playlist on Youtube cover all the SAT chemistry topics in its chemistry playist?

Also, I'm planning on self studyng ap calc ab (w/o prior calculus knowledge). Will just watching the calculus playlist on that channel up to the partial derivative video and doing 3000 solved problems in calculus for practice be enough to prepare for the exam? Thanks!

After a quick look at khan academy, it looks like he covers most of the things on the AB exam. Practice with a lot of problems is also very good, but I would get a book on Calculus to aid in your study. When doing independent study, getting different explanations of topics can be very helpful (anytime, really).
 
Khan academy is a good resource, but you need to complement it with a real book. A schaum's outline wouldn't be a bad idea if you don't care about the theory behind calculus.
