How to prep for psych/sociology?

I've noticed that TPR psych/sociology has been recommended a few times and that Khan academy is good for practice passages, but are there any other resources that are good??

Anyone with personal experience with other books such as EK, Kaplan, Next Step???
 
and what if I finish the khan academy passages? Where else can I find good resources to practice for psych/soci?????

Should I get TPR psych even though my exam is on August 21st (6 weeks away)??? I hear it comes with 3 FLs too

I used Kaplan and got like a 90% on aamc practice test. I only read through it once and kind of skimped on it because I found it boring, so I don't know if I did well because I've taken the classes before, even though I don't remember anything lol.
 
I used the NextStep books + Khan and I had no psych background at all. The next step psych strategy book was good for practice and timing/pacing but their content book was light on info and very no frills (FYI its black and white) compared to TPR. When I saw how much was on Khan I didn't bother to buy new books. From what I saw when shopping around and looking at all the books later on, no one seems to have gotten the psych/soc just right yet (prolly cause its so new) but in my opinion TPR comes closest in terms of breadth of psych/soc content covered.

I would 100% say to go through the Khan videos. The Khan passages are ok but I'd rank em good since they cost nothing. I made sure I got through all of them cause this was my weakest section & I ended up doing 81-96% on the real thing.
