Hint - there's interesting symmetry going on around R3.  Suppose R3 was infinite - what would the equivalent resistance for the circuit be?  Now suppose R3 is 0 - again, what would the equivalent resistance be?
 
Or you can do it the hard way.  Assume a voltage across A-B of, say, 10 volts, and determine the total current flow.  The current flow through each of the 5 resistors are unknowns, and you can set up 5 equations using Kirchoff's circuit laws. Solve for the currents, then find the total current I.  The equivalent resistance is 10volts/I.
