Test Preparation AP History & Social Sciences

I’m taking an AP US History class this year. Can someone share me your experiences?

  1. How should I prepare for the class?
  2. How intense do you feel the class is?
  3. Do you happen to have copies of old exams?
    Thank you!

Hope you get a good teacher because it is a lot of busy work and you’ll need a lot of time to prepare and study. If you have summer work… DO IT NOW. ASAP you don’t want to be procrastinating and finishing it up during the school year.

Also get some APUSH Review SAT Books such as Princeton Review, or Barrons to learn the content. Those helped me alot to get a good score on the APUSH exam.

Thank you! Yes, I have been working on a summer work but I’m kind of confused… I don’t feel confident in my answers. Also, I bought the Barrons book a few days ago.

I’m sorry I should not have said the exam. I knew that the College Board provided the old exams. I meant the old copies of tests.
