Therefore, you have to make sure you're paying attention at all times. I took the AP World last May. And guess what. However, the book lacks in actual AP World questions at the end of their sections. I'd recommend both Princeton & 5 Steps to a 5, but if you can only choose one, go with 5 Steps to a 5. I got a 5.
Besides not having any practice questions, the tests in this book are nothing like the real thing. I mainly studied this book and 5 Steps to a 5. The book has cheesy jokes to keep you alive though. Honestly, this book is good to study. It's detailed and organized well. Princeton's tests are MUCH HARDER.
The book actually has practice questions and is closer to the real thing.
I'm a junior who took this test when I was a sophmore last year, and it helped a lot. It's almost a comical relief when my class read its titles of "Old Stuff" "Really Old Stuff" "Recent Stuff" as its titles as oppossed to those long, complicated things. And, I GOT A FOUR ON MY TEST. All thanks to this Bible.
Cracking the AP World History Exam, 2008 EditionI was expectiong a book in good condition. This book was fair because most every page had writing all over it.
We just received our scores from the 2008 exam today and she made a 4 while I made a 5. Last year I had an online AP World History course during first semester, and by the time May arrived, I had forgotten the small amount of history that I learned in the class. My friend and I skipped school about 5 days during the two weeks before the exam to study from the book, and I looked through it every night to review. I simply learned the history in the book and emulated their advised test-taking strategy. This book is a must-have, and is far more interesting than your enormous World History textbook.
It is a great alternative to reading from long and tedious college level textbooks with like 10 font. This book really helped me do well on the AP Test.I got a 4. It's concise and really amusing. (Ugh.cornell notess.).I noticed that a lot of the information my teacher used when he lectured came directly from this book. I can not recommend this product more to any student who is or is going to be enrolled in an APWH course.
