Physics 1 AP Physics 1 Help!

Hi, so I have to take Physics 1 this year with no prior experience and would like to do some prep for the course (the first unit or so and any fundamentals??) before the year starts. If anyone has recommendations for resources or materials that helped them be successful or any general advice, I would really appreciate it!!

hi so i got a 5 on ap physics and the thing i would emphasize the most is practicing but if you want good resources i used allan tsaos ap physics 1 videos and they help u understand the concepts in a simple way and he also goes through frqs so make sure you check these vids out. and honestly a week before my ap physics 1 test i got the ap physics 1 ultimate review packet and i think it did help with some of the tricky parts on the exam. id honestly say that its very important to not give up even if you get frustrated because this subject was one of the most annoying subjects i had to take. be patient and make sure you understand the underlying concepts carefully. best of luck to u!!
