Hey guys,
I am taking AP physics C in high school. So far i have found it very easy, because physics last year came very easy to me. I want to self study for the electro/magnitism portion, because in our time we can only prepare for the mechanics portion. I have the textbook Fundamentals of Physics, Halliday, Resnick, and i believ some other guy wrote. I was wondering what order/what i should look over and study to be prepared for the E/M part of the physics C test.

Thanks fellas
