I have been doing programming for 1.5 years or so predominantly in ActionScript (with a little C++ on the side), and I’ve thought about taking the AP computer science exam since I think I would know what’s on the test.

I know about iteration, recursion, data encapsulation, OOP inheritance structures, etc. So I think I am in good shape. Has anyone taken this test? Does anyone have any good advice about doing well on the test or good books to practice from?

Should I take just the A test or the AB test.
