Mark,

   The Educational Testing Service itself publishes many useful
documents; syllabi, suggestions and old test questions. The address I
have is

    Advanced Placement Program
    P.O. Box 6670
    Princeton, New Jersey 08541-6670

   However, since the exams are almost here, you might want to get a
number from information, and try to order by phone. I know other people
who have done so, even to the extent of arranging for overnight delivery
at a rather hefty premium. I don't have a phone number, but ETS would be
in the 609 area code. By the way, has your student already registered
for the test?

   Hope this helps.
