<p>Took it my Soph year and had a horrible teacher. Basically a self-study in class all year round. Lots of memorization. Got a 3 on the AP test.</p>
<p>I'm NOT a history buff and I do not like history or memorizing dates and event. But if that's the kind of person you are, then you'll do fine. It's a good measurement on whether or not you should take APUSH as well.</p>
<p>wow <strong><em>....i studied my ass off (for regular tests) andd managed an A the whole sem until finals when our teacher gave us a pass/fail old AP exam test..i missed the pass/fail my 1 POINT!..went down to a B. and I got a 1 on the exam...</em></strong> it doesnt even make sense cuz i studied more for the exam than the final</p>
<p>I don't like it as much as I thought I would.</p>
<p>I was kinda sick of US History and was ready for a change..but now, it's not that great. My teacher is cool but I reallllllly enjoy parts of it. But there's huge chunks of info that I could care less about. And it covers a huge time period..</p>
<p>It's definitely not one of the harder APs at my school though</p>
