Best AP Self-Study Book for World History

Test Preparation
1

<p>Hey everyone, </p>

<p>I was wondering if you guys could give me some advice. I took the European History AP exam and the AP Art History exam last year. Both of these gave me vast knowledge of World History (coupled with my hobby of studying this), plus I have friends who've taken the AP World History exam and told me that it is almost completely European History based anyway. Hence, I feel confident that I could pass the exam with a good high score without taking the class. Therefore, I am asking you all to help me out with my selection of self-study books. I bought the REA European History self-study/review book and it was excellent! I seriously don't think I even needed to take the class....that book gave me everything. Unfortunately (correct me if I'm wrong) an REA book doesn't exist for World History (if it does, link me to it please), so I wonder if you guys can point me to some excellent self-study/review books on World History. Ones that you are confident will give me everything I need just like the REA book gave me. </p>

<p>A similar book on AP Human Geography would be helpful too.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot</p>

<p>Here's a tip: whenever you're looking for a prep book for something, do a search for it. Anything you want is sure to have been discussed somewhere on this board over and over.</p>

<p>Why should I waste my time doing that when you just answered me?</p>

<p>Exactly.</p>

<p>Because the previous threads give you everything you want to know while this question clutters the board.</p>
