<p>I want to take the SAT 2 world history test. But I have no idea how I should study for it. Can anybody give me some advices?</p>
<p>I don’t really know how to help. I took it last year after taking AP World History and getting a 5 on that test. I felt VERY insecure about how well I did on the SAT Subject Test, and wound up doing okay-ish (I got a 770). The questions were very specific and fact-based as compared to the AP exam’s trend-focused questions. The two tests are very different, considering they’re testing the same material. I would recommend studying as you would for the AP World exam (if you were self-studying) and adding emphasis on specifics (unfortunately, I don’t think I can really be specific about those specifics; sorry!), particularly dates (not month/day/year, necessarily, but know the chronological relationships of major events around the world to one another) and major historical figures (particularly leaders and influential people whose names you would likely not need to know for the AP test).</p>
<p>I’m really sorry I can’t give you a specific prescription for study, but this should start you off nicely.</p>
<p>There is a lot of stuff to memorize for the test, and you have until June to do that. The test will cover everything tested in entire textbooks of college level / AP world history, so I recommend you buy a prep book and read a LOT. Sounds boring, but this is what people do in college.</p>
<p>I got a 4 on AP World and 730 on the exam</p>
<p>get the barrons sat 2 world history and begin mugging right away :D</p>
