<p>Which of the two classes is perceived to be more difficult? Are Euro/World considered easier or harder AP classes?</p>
<p>Thanks for your help! </p>
<p>AP World History is seen to be more difficult, and both are taken by a large number of underclassmen (sophomores in particular), but are also considered rigorous</p>
<p>I’ve heard mixed opinions–I’ve heard some say Euro was harder, some have said World is. I took World, and it was okay, but I think US is easier than World (and people generally agree US is one of the harder AP history classes), so it just goes to show that it varies depending on the person and the school/teacher.</p>
