<p>I'm using Modern Euro History by B. Viault. Throughout the year I took notes from all the chapters in my textbook (McKay) but I felt that it was extremely time consuming to go back and read all the pages of notes again so I started reading the Viault book. I have CliffNotes, REA, textbook, and this. According to my teacher, quite a few kids in the past have gotten 5's by just reading this book. I'm probably going to try reading all 4 books but I doubt it'll happen because I procrastinate so easily.

Also, taking practice tests (as many as you can) is a definite must. Good luck!</p>
