I'm not great at math and I didn't buy an AP review book this past year when I took calculus. I relied on my teacher and my textbook to answer my questions and I got A's and B's...bearing in mind that math is probably my worst subject. I wouldn't worry too much!

Any review can be helpful.  The best thing to do for calculus is just to do several practice problems... especially when it comes to taking derivatives or integrals... Practice and familiarity with problems will greatly help you.  

 Either way, different review books will be different.  Some review books will write things in a way that's better for YOU to understand than other books might be.  But it can't hurt to review things :).


did you take that class

Which class?  I'm currently taking a multivariable calculus course over summer, so I've taken two other calculus courses before this one.

Any excess review is always helpful and will give you a better foundation for harder concepts...
