<p>I've heard it's a really hard exam. Why so?</p>
<p>It covers a variety of topics and is difficult to self study or learn without a great teacher.</p>
<p>There is a lot of material to cover in a short amount of time. A lot of the history is stuff that is brand new, as opposed to APUSH where we’ve been exposed to some of it before. Lots of dates, events, figures, etc. to remember and make relevance out of. I found it to be the hardest AP.</p>
