Where to find AP Physics C: Mechanics material?

So I would like to write the AP Physics exam this year. Unfortunately, my school does not offer AP physics and therefore does not have any material I can look at. So I have gotten myself a textbook, sadly, it does not have much practice material.

Is there anyone out there who knows where I can get practice materials online, or a good (not too expensive) workbook I can invest in?

Also, If you have written the AP physics, can you please share your experiences and give me some advice, specifically which areas I should focus on.

Theres a book by K A Tsokos entitled: "Physics for the IB Diploma" that might have some questions you can grab.
 

Thread 'Magnitude of buoyant force in fluids of different densities'

The book claims the answer is that all the magnitudes are the same because "the gravitational force on the penguin is the same". I'm having trouble understanding this. I thought the buoyant force was equal to the weight of the fluid displaced. Weight depends on mass which depends on density. Therefore, due to the differing densities the buoyant force will be different in each case? Is this incorrect?
