<p>What are some good books you used to get a 5 on the AP History test? And why was that book helpful to you? Thanks!</p>

<p>Barron’s was good and it gave a good summary of everything.</p>

<p>How’s the Princeton Review book?</p>

4

<p>I used princeton review (for content review) and got 5. However, I recommend using friends’ review books or released exams for MC practice.</p>

<p>Princeton Review was amazing. I used it last year and got a 5. It covers pretty much everything you need to know. I also had Barrons, but I personally did not like it.</p>

<p>Ok, sounds good. I also have the Kaplan one, but I’ve heard some mixed reviews about it. Does anyone know how the Kaplan book stacks up against other APWH prep books?</p>

<p>Thing with APWH is particular is that there are a few ‘must know’ topics for M/C and FRQs, but for the most part, you’re just going to need to know a big chunk of history from every major era and civilization. There’s a lot of details and you’re bound to learn a lot from any major prep book. I haven’t personally heard anything about Kaplan, but still, I wouldn’t recommend swaying too far away from the Barron’s consensus on this one.</p>
