Studying for the AP US History Exam


Question Posted Monday April 25 2011, 5:43 pm

I am junior in highschool and I have AP Tests coming up. I am a straight A student but my AP US teacher is kind of easy so I am worried I will not be as prepared for the test. Does anyone have any tips for studying for this exam. I bought the Princeton review book but its so wordy I might as well be reading my text book.

One more thing-I often get bored when reading my history text, I really like history but sometimes the format and the shear amount of reading gets to me. Any tips for making this reading more bearable. Thank you for the help, you are all very kind people who take the time to help so many others who seek advice :) Keep it up, I love the site.

Best thing to do for AP tests is to find practice tests, either online or in study books and take them. I'm talking like the full test, sit down in a desk and take it all in one go as if it's the real test. Then take the answer key and go through it. If you find there is a particular area you are having trouble with, look up that section in your text/review book. Do this multiple times. The most important skill when taking an AP test is test taking skill. I got a 5 on my AP Bio test and a 4 on my AP Psych test despite getting a C- and a D in the classes.
