<p>Damn, I'm worried most about this test (out of 6).. The practice tests on Barrons and Kaplan are extremely hard, but I got a 5 on the mock exam. I'm generally extremely well on those DBQs, but I stumble on MCs and Essays because I'm always either overthinking the question or I'm not thinking enough (or even daydreaming) when it comes to essays.</p>
<p>Arrghh..</p>
<p>Rich Hobo: How did you do on the MC in the barrons test? I kind of found the questions for barrons a little easier... maybe just easier than Kaplan. Kaplan is hard though.</p>
<p>Well, I stopped doing the Barrons after like the first 20 or so questions cuz I was struggling. (This was like a month ago)</p>
<p>On Kaplan (I did this like a week ago) and I got around 52/80 or something like that.. Not good</p>
<p>I read sparknotes 5-10 pg laminated timeline of US History the weekend before and got a 5 on the exam last year...that was my greatest moment of fame</p>
<p>I also got a 5 last year and I used PR as well as some Barron's that was required for class. </p>
<p>uhhhh if you haven't started cramming yet.....start immediately :)</p>
<p>Can I take the same approach to the DBQ on APUSH as is the case with APWH? i.e. solid thesis, group the documents, analyze, bring in outside information, etc. Or is there a better "formula" to do well on the DBQ?</p>
<p>How many questions are there from before 1763? That's the period our history teacher told us to review from. He said not to really bother with the stuff from before 1763. And our class average on the AP US History test for the past four years has been considerably higher than the national average, but I really want a five, so I don't want to leave too much room for me to get screwed.</p>

<p>From collegeboard:</a></p>
<p>"Approximately 20 percent of the questions deal with the period through 1789, 45 percent cover 1790 through 1914, and 35 percent cover 1915 to the present including questions on events since 1980.</p>
<p>Within those time periods, 35 percent of the questions are on political institutions, behavior, and public policy; 40 percent are about social and cultural developments; approximately 15 percent of the remaining questions cover diplomacy and international relations; and 10 percent cover economic developments."</p>
<p>theoddchild and PAHreen: THANK YOU for the information, seriously. =)</p>
<p>My aim is to pass the AP US History test (I'd be content with a 3)...I think I can do this.</p>
<p>my class was incredibly rigorous, so i hardly studied and did very well. if you had a good teacher and actually read throughout the year you'll be fine. if not, sorry...</p>
