<p>It's been almost a year since I've taken World History and it wasn't an AP course, but I did well in it. What is the best book to buy for a review of the topics?</p>
<p>I used Kaplan, and got a 760. It was pretty good, because I didn’t take AP world history either so there was a lot of stuff I had to cover myself. It’s a very hard test to study for in general because there’s so much information and I had covered probably only 2/3 of it in class, but luckily there’s a huge curve so that helps.</p>
<p>I’ve heard Barron’s is good. Here’s one:</p>
<p>[SAT</a> Subject Test World History 2008 3rd Edition - eBay (item 260571895894 end time Mar-24-10 16:44:59 PDT)](<a href=“http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260571895894]SAT”>http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260571895894)</p>
<p>My school doesn’t offer AP World History, and the curriculum only covers the roots of democracy, the renaissance, and then from the industrial revolution to slightly post-WWII. I am currently using the Barron’s book to study for the June SAT II and it seems pretty comprehensive. I looked at Princeton at the store as well and this seems better.</p>
