AP USH Study Guides and Outline

<p>mahras,
i have found fallacious information on some course-notes chapter notes... and its redudant. steer clear from it the last week.
P.S. I mean totally wrong.</p>

<p>Hey anyone got the 1988 test they can send me</p>

<p>Boomer> Yea I saw them as well. They are good with the unit notes where you may wish to find out some quick info from though. I am personally just using princeton review to get review some history and using that cram packet link posted before.</p>

<p>Made in China> No scanner sadly. Maybe someone else has one.</p>

<p>Ditto, im near the end of the APUSH PR book. I will fill out the review sheet either tomorrow/tuesday, and do practice tests wedns. thurs. Not cramming, just polishing those details (there must be like 4 questions on the Missouri Compromise on each test i have taken :-/. anyone else notice really common questions on 1 event/person?</p>

<p>Okay everyone... I strongly advise AGAINST using this site- <a href="http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Pantheon/9910/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Pantheon/9910/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I was looking through it this morning, and it's terribly lacking. Among the numerous spelling errors (which are annoying, if nothing else), the author completely omits important areas of history (Johnson's impeachment, anyone?) and has several factual errors (pairing Gompers with the AFofL.)</p>

<p>The historian insights are great, and are extremely valuable to incorporate in DBQs. Otherwise, DON'T RELY ON THIS SITE.</p>

<p>^Yes spelling errors can be an annoyance sometimes, but who really cares, the spelling errors aren't numerous and you probably won't be bothered by it. Yes some very important dates are omitted, that might be because this packet is for a review, and most important dates should already be known. Also besides Johnson's impeachment, what else is missing. About it having factuals errors, it might have some, can you tell me where. Ohh also pairing Gompers with AFL is not an error. Gompers was Pres for 30+ years. If thats the only mistake you found, which your wrong about, than I must highly doubt any truth you speak of the website.</p>

<p>Until someone can prove otherwise, I'll continue looking over the website.</p>

<p>I've never written a DBQ before, self-studying for US AP...help! :)</p>

<p>Hey guys my teacher is a lazy guy.. He just gave us the 1988 exam and wont give us any other ones... I have gotten through the first twenty with only missing one. My question though is what do you guys think the FR questions will be this time? I hope one is on reconstruction (after the Civil War) and something about comparing the North and South governments. I am not too hot on the Populist/Progressive era. Any tips? I need help on that and everything else is pretty easy.</p>

<p>my teacher thinks populist/progressive DBQ</p>

<p>Ok tell me if this would be a good outline for an essay about progressive/populist.</p>

<p>I. Talk about Bacon's Rebellion and how it was a long before precursor to Populist ideas
II. Talk about the silver movement and how many people supported it because it helped poorer folk. Name the issues they supported (women's suffrage, getting rid of monopolies, direct election of senators, and income taxes, and of course free silver).
III. Campaigner was Williman Jenning's Bryan who campaigned on "free silver" that would help farmers in debt and would also lower the power the banks had on the national government.
IV. Talk about how Progressive borrowed ideas from the Populist movement and were encouraged by their achievements. After this talk about what they believed. Their prominent leaders (TR, Taft).
V. Talk about the reason they dissolved which is because they had accomplished all there goals. So in turn there goals actually kind of got rid of them.</p>

<p>Would these 5 topics be good enough for a populist/progressive essay if that is what the topic would be about?</p>

<p>no DBQ help?</p>

<p>seems kinda skimpy on details</p>

<p>i'm sure there would be other details, but this essay seems like it covers a lot. I think the essay prompt would be either one, not both (or so i hope)</p>

<p>If anyone has a copy of a practice exam, could you send it to <a href="mailto:rippond@gmail.com">rippond@gmail.com</a>?</p>

<p>It would be a much appreciated way to get the good karma flowing!</p>

<p>Okay, I'm sorry. For some reason, I was pairing Gompers with the KOL. My b.</p>

<p>That being said... I still feel like the outline is severely lacking in several areas that are commonly covered in the multiple choice, including:</p>

<ul>
<li>Bacon's Rebellion.</li>
<li>Federalists v. Antifederalists, arguements for and against ratification, Federalist Papers.</li>
<li>Articles of Confederation</li>
<li>Revolution of 1800.</li>
<li>barely talks about Jackson, who, in my opinion, is one of the most important presidents.</li>
<li>nothing about Reform Movements & artistic movements in the early 1800s</li>
</ul>

<p>And that's just from a span of about 50 years.</p>

<p>I don't recommend that one should use this site for the sole purpose of cramming or as their main source of information. <a href="http://www.course-notes.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.course-notes.org&lt;/a> and <a href="http://www.historyteacher.net%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.historyteacher.net&lt;/a> are better for that. The only value I see in this site is the placement of presidents with significant events.</p>
