<p>One week left until US history exam... yeah, some concern creeping in given that I've only reviewed up until the end of the American Revolution, and I am still quite fuzzy on everything after that.</p>
<p>How are you guys coping??</p>
<p>Oh, and question: Are the Kaplan tests and Princeton Review tests harder than the actual Collegeboard tests?</p>
<p>I am at the same place as you, my goal is to get to the Civil War. Good luck.</p>
<p>I'm not studying for that after taking the SAT II tomorrow, and I'm only doing practice tests as it is...so out of 8 APs, I'm only studying for 2! WOOT!</p>
<p>hahha me too, individual studying, i've only gotten to the revolutionary war. Luckily, ive been going to study sessions for the past 3 weeks, so we'll see how that helps out. Apush is supposedly one of the easiest Ap tests in my school, so........ I duno. I'm more worried about studying for bio without the ap bio course</p>
<p>Hmm getting to the civil war is a good idea... since most of the stuff after WW1 is fairly fresh in my mind, so the only gaps would be like Reconstruction and Gilded Age...</p>
<p>Hahah oh god, the gilded age. My teacher (who i thought was a amazing teacher) had to leave for 3 months because she just had a baby, and was replaced by a long term sub. To make it simple, i know **** about the gilded age. I learned nothing with the sub, and after my whole class failed the test on the gilded age, i actually read for once. </p>
<p>Jefferson and Jackson presidencies? Man there is alot to review</p>
<p>is the kaplan test prep book any good?</p>
<p>everyone recommends rea and that what i have...</p>
<p>Apparently, my teacher really overprepares his classes for the APUSH exam, and an A in his class automatically = 5 on the exam. I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY hope this is true ... eek.</p>
<p>I've preparing pretty well so far. I've done some essays and multiple choice. But i'm still scared.</p>
<p>There is only 5 more days, up to New Deal</p>
<p>I'm really worried about the free response. The multiple choice might be okay with logical, and those "oh yeah" moments... free response you need to actually associate events with the question within a certain context... and DBQ gives you documents to freshen up what you know. Eeegh.</p>
<p>And we're not even done covering material. XDDDDD Thank god for the Giant APUSH Review.</p>
<p>yep, i'm basically done studying too, since i finished all my studying in preparation for SAT II's =). 5 shouldnt be hard, especially with the curve. Kaplan is great btw chocolate; i used the SATII one.</p>
<p>Yeah ... I'm panicky too ^^;; .. I've been reading the AMSCO book out of order (started w/the 1960's, then the Reconstruction Era, then the 20's, then the Guilded Age ... etc) b/c I'm just weird like that I guess >_> But overall, I'm through with maybe 1/5 of the book =(</p>
<p>Our class is reviewing for the exam, but I keep falling asleep in class =( Because I stay up all night cramming. (yet I'm only 1/5 of the way through, how'd that happen? lol)</p>
<p>I don't know if this'll help, but here's a site made by my sister, and under the United States History section, she has some nice reviews to look over (like lists of events and ppl, etc). Good for last minute cramming I guess =)

<p>i know it is never revealed and i could be completly wrong but i have a feeling that the dbq might be on labor unions, and the progress of labor. gilded age-who knows when. what is everyone else's feelings on a possible dbq for this year?</p>
<p>I don't know, they just had a labor DBQ in 2000...</p>
<p>I'm feeling more of a Civil War/Reconstruction or Immigration or WWI type question coming...hopefully...</p>
<p>If it's on Native Americans I'll commit suicide...I think I'll go study that now...</p>
<p>Reconstruction is always a major possibility.</p>
<p>The New Deal would be ideal. I dread Reconstruction.</p>
<p>yes, i also would dread native american, or even a farmers dbq. When in doubt about farmers just remember in 1892 populist plowed the country green.
(1492 columbus sailed the ocean blue).</p>
<p>i have way too much time on my hands.</p>
