Ok guys so we have to take like 13 pages of notes every night for ap world and I’m done with taking notes and still getting 82’s on my tests 
so i was looking around the internet and found my textbooks chapter outline notes:
[Ways</a> of the World: A Brief Global History, First Edition - Content](<a href=“http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/strayer1e/pages/bcs-main.asp?v=category&s=00010&n=23000&i=23010.01&o=|23000|&ns=0]Ways”>http://bcs.bedfordstmartins.com/strayer1e/pages/bcs-main.asp?v=category&s=00010&n=23000&i=23010.01&o=|23000|&ns=0)
But does this contain enough information to get me a good grades if i study it and still read but not take notes on the chapter. I will also probably rewrite the outline. Would this outlline be helpful enough? Thanks guys</p>
<p>Outline notes are helpful to look at along with your textbook. Since it doesn’t have the specific details your tests might have, read the outline and your textbook at the same time. DO NOT copy the outline word for word; rephrase it into your own words so you can make sure that you understand it.</p>
<p>Wow your tests must be really easy or something, no one in my class ever gets above a 76 (at the most) on our tests…averages are in the 50’s/60’s. </p>
<p>Definitely do not rely on the outline alone.</p>
<p>I did quite a bit of research on the best review books for APUSH. I recommend getting AMSCO (there’s only the pdf version now and I don’t have the link), APUSH Crash Course by REA, the INSIDERS COMPLETE GUIDE TO AP US HISTORY: THE ESSENTIAL CONTENT, and Barron flashcards. Obviously I went a bit overboard with these study materials but I like to have my choices. I got all of them for $30 on amazon. I plan to use APUSH CC and Barron Flashcards the week before the AP exam. I barely use my textbook except to study for the tests my teacher hands out because they ask so many specific questions related to the readings. I plan to use THE ESSENTIAL CONTENT and AMSCO over this month to get the main topics in my head.</p>
