<p>Yea US History of some kind is taught from at least 5th grade I think...maybe 6 years of doing the same thing isn't enough for you geniuses.</p>
<p>Some students on here are quite average, which is not that surprising. There is no way that the top 1% of the country's student level of knowledge would all concentrate on a single forum. That would be nearly impossible to achieve, since not all students are interested in talking online. In addition, not all who are concerned about college are the best students in the country, as one look at my high school and most others in this country would confirm.</p>
<p>Should I do independent study and take the AP USH without taking the class? Is it possible? If so, how would I study? what do I need?</p>
<p>Yes, use the AMSCO or REA book. (APDoolittle recommends the AMSCO book for its ease of understanding and concise but informative style)</p>
