AP World History Exam vs. SAT Subject Test

<p>I am going to take the AP World History Exam this May, and I wanted to know if the exam is similar to the World History SAT Subject Test. If so, do I even have to study for the Subject Test if I am already studying for the AP Exam? Is the same material on the AP Exam covered on the Subject Test?</p>

<p>I'm wondering the same exact thing.</p>

<p>lol. I want to know, but no one is responding. Anyone?</p>

<p>The questions are just about the same (trend questions, political cartoons, etc...). However, you're going to have to work pretty quickly on the SAT II since there's 95 questions in 1 hour. Therefore, really it's all the same history that's being tested. Just make sure that you're fast (well depending on what score you want), and pace yourself. </p>

<p>Note: I did find that the questions on the SAT II seemed easier than those on the AP, but maybe this was because I took the SAT II after the AP.</p>

<p>So I could just study my AP World History exam notes and it would cover all of the material on the subject test?</p>

<p>Pretty much yes, it's the same history (unless history is ambiguous like in 1984), but learn to be quick to access the history stored in your brain.</p>

<p>If you knew your stuff for AP WH, then you'd be fine for SAT II WH. I didn't even need to open my AP WH book, let alone study with an SAT II book, for my SAT II WH. Got 800.</p>

<p>Typically, the AP exam is harder than the SAT II.</p>

<p>Of course, there are probably some exceptions.</p>

<p>I took an AP Euro class and got an 800 on the SAT II for World History. Just read the SAT II review books ALOT.</p>

<p>My SAT Subject Test for world history IS TOMORROW. I’m like freaking out. I already studied a lot for the World History AP Exam that i took about 3 weeks ago. I havent studied whatsoever for the SAT Subject Test because I didn’t feel the need to (I loved my World History AP Class, so I’m confident in myself) but now I’m freaking out.
But there are sample questions on collegeboard that i took and they were pretty easy.</p>
