<p>This is the first year AP Euro is being taught at my school and our teacher started with the ancient Egyptians and moving through the textbook at a snail's pace. We are using world history books, it wouldn't be to bad if I could just take the world history exam instead but we are required to take the euro one to receive credit for the course. Does anyone know of a good online resource that I could use to study on my own. I am so far behind.</p>
<p>I know you said online but I used REA and Princeton Review books</p>
<p>the European test starts at the Renaissance</p>
<p>I know, I will never study the material in time.</p>
<p>to start with Ancient Egyptians is quite an uncommon lesson plan for a euro class.. </p>
<p>our class started with medieval time then ran to the renaissance.. we're doing Enlightenment Period right now. </p>
<p>Yeah get the princetown Reveiw books and read the summaries. i never have time to do my daily readings anyways.</p>
<p>Buy "Modern European History" by Birdsall Viault.
Guarantee you a 5</p>
<p>Princeton Review, Cliffs, any (or both) will do. Just ensure that you hit on the main topics. Yeah, Renaissance should be the first stuff and then u'll see a long boring period (it's just my opinion) of religious era after which the real interesting events will start off (agri rev, indus rev, french rev) and continue till WWII. So, just ensure u r studying smartly. Don't worry about studying deep origins questions like Egyptian civilization. Those are very unlikely to be on the test. And mind it, learn as much as u can about the essay and DBQs coz those r the sections students tend to mess up most.</p>
<p>im sorry but no one cares about Egyptians.
start with the bubonic plague work up to the rennisance through the reformation and sci. revolution to Enlightenment, to industrial rev....much more.
AP season is MAY!</p>

I'm in AP Euro now too, and have Viault's book. How exactly would you recommend utilizing this to guarantee a five?</p>
<p>Viault's book is amazing. If you read it through a couple times that will gurantee you a 5</p>
<p>I think I used the Barron's review book and it worked fine for me. It had some treaties and stuff in it that weren't in my textbook.</p>
<p>its not too hard to self-study for that exam. Only about 100 pages of info, and if you take all the practice tests/tests on cd's...youll be prepared enough to at least pass</p>
