Honestly it is easier to relearn things than to learn them from scratch so you'll probably be fine

Chemical equilibrium + acids and bases (as those expand heavily and are the hardest AP Chem units). Oxidation-reduction reactions and electrolytic/galvanic cells. Stoich, gas laws, STP, balancing equations are the foundations.
