<p>I am an OOS high school senior attending the McCombs School of Business this fall. I'm currently deciding which AP tests I should take to earn credit. While researching, I noticed that UTAustin has a required Texas supplement to earn credit for GOV310L. (Exam</a> Details Center for Teaching and Learning) Although the test is only 20 questions long, the recommended reading is a freaking huge textbook :S. I'm kind of concerned if its worth the time to take this test. Is it really difficult? Does anyone have any study advice for it?</p>
<p>Hey! I’m in the same boat as you, and from what my friends have told me, it’s ridiculously easy. Depending on your AP score, you only need to score a certain percentage to receive credit (for them it was maybe 5 questions?). Something like that. You can miss the majority of the questions and still earn credit.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t say it was an easy test, but it’s easy to get credit. I got a 4 on the AP US Gov Test. For the TX Gov test, I was only sure on 2 questions, but I still got credit immediately after taking it. I’m not sure if they even graded it… To study, all I did was print out & read the wikipedia article on Texas government. If you want to study more, I’d recommend: [Welcome</a> to Texas Politics](<a href=“http://texaspolitics.laits.utexas.edu/]Welcome”>http://texaspolitics.laits.utexas.edu/)</p>
<p>^ yea, sorry. I meant it’s easy to get credit.</p>
