<p>Hi. Does anyone have a list of notable Supreme Court Decisions that are likely to come out on the AP exam? Why don't we start a thread of important Supreme Court Decisions to aid our studies?</p>

<p>Marbury v. Maryland
McCullough v. Maryland
Plessy v. Ferguson
Brown v. Board of Education
Roe v. Wade
Gideon v. Wainwright
Engel v. Vitale</p>

<p>Those are many of the more likely ones</p>

<p>Most of them appeared on the 2008 APUSH test.</p>

<p>^blindtrombonist - Was the 2008 test released? What test are yu referring to?
Crash Course has a thematic chapter devoted to key Supreme Court cases and trials. Says that there is no need to study 50+ cases. Only 16 have appeared on the APUSH exam. Top 5 are - Marbury v. Madison, Dred Scott, Plessy v. Ferguson, Scopes Trial and Brown v. Board of Ed.</p>

<p>I took the 2008 test last year. I don’t know whether it’s been released or not, but I’m fairly certain all but a couple of the ones I mentioned were on that test.</p>
