<p>How hard is the AP Gov test?
I'm not sure whether or not I want to take it. I have a very good teacher, even though he doesn't do any test prep, and I'd of course study on my own.</p>
<p>The only other tests I've taken are APUSH and Psych. I thought Psych was ridiculously easy and APUSH was fine.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>I took AP Gov last year. My teacher covered a limited amount of information...he doesn't teach with the intention to prepare his students for the AP. The exam isn't hard, but you need to make sure you know all of the information pat down. If you memorize the Princeton Review book, you should be fine. The FR section is very easy.</p>
<p>Isn't it really hard to get a 5 in the AP US Government&Politics?
I've looked through the questions in Barron's and the Princeton Revies, and I thought that multiple choices are "ok" but FR definitely hard.
If you don't have any thorough background knowledge of history and current issues, FRs are nearly impossible to be answered to get a 5.
It might seem that way only to me(since english is my second language), but my government and history teachers(American) told me that it won't easy even to the American students.
I think it's a subject that can't be mastered in a few months.</p>
