I took the AP World History test and it blew. I got a 3 and I actually studied for it for about 6 weeks prior. Our teacher was brand new to the stubject though and I wasn’t very interested in the class so that was probably it. I took AP Biology, AP Language and Comp, and AP US History last year and I got 4s on all. I didn’t really study for apush, i just listened in class. There isn’t really a way you can study for AP Lang other than also paying attention in class and making sure you know your lang techniques. As for AP Bio I holed myself up into a corner of my house and did nothing but absorb the information for 4 days straight. It was honestly death and I don’t know how I got a 4 on it but I’m not complaining.
Back to AP World it alwasy comes back to knowing the bigger picture of things. Not knowing the certain events in history but knowing how they affected civilizations, people, religion, society, agriculture, economy, etc.
