The Schaum's Guides are what you want

Brightstorm is pretty great, maybe even better than Khan since topics are broken down into videos that are generally no more than 5 minutes. It gives you the principle and an example problem for each topic.

HyperPhysics is also pretty nice, with physics topics broken down succinctly and example problems where you can even put numbers in to find the result.

There's also the Physics Hypertextbook which I admit I haven't really used myself, but it looks like a nice resource with plenty of links that lets you go right towards whatever topic is giving you trouble.

Schaum's Physics Outline is a book that has lots of problems on any possible type of problem you're going to encounter. Once you see that most problems within a chapter are just the same variation on 3 or 4 different equations, you'll realize a lot of problems are deceptively simple. You'd have to pay for it, but I swear it's worth every penny.

EdX has courses that anybody can sign up for, for free and without obligation. These are courses that contain lectures and notes from prestigious universities like Harvard and MIT. I find it helpful to sign up for a course and raid their materials for notes and video lectures, then drop the course when I get what I'm looking for.

And on that note, you can try searching YouTube for Walter Lewin. He's also well known for being a good Physics lecturer. I'm personally rather indifferent about his lectures, but lots of other people think he's great so I'll mention him. In fact, just go on YouTube and search for physics terms until you find a particular channel that you like.

Just push forward, one day when you are working on an engineering project you are gonna realize their importance. Use Schaum books to help you with whatever you are stuck with.

My teacher told us to get Schaum's Outline of College Physics, 11th Edition (Schaum's Outlines) https://www.amazon.com/dp/0071754873/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_8mUPwb9GD1FKB

Since it's a new AP, we don't have much to go on. But, last year 6/7 kids got on a 5 on the AP, so I'm going to trust my teacher's judgement.
