<p>Hi, I'm taking the AP exam for world history in about less than 2 weeks. I've done some reviewing, but I havent started preparing for the essays (which are very important).</p>
<p>Would it help me at all if write a few essays before the test. Or no, since I wouldn't know the prompts in the exam. I'm really nervous, and I am aiming for a 5 :)</p>
<p>By the way, how specific is the exam?</p>
<p>If you already know how to write the essays, then you don't need too much practice. Just practice DBQs and writing strong theses.
The exam wasn't too specific overall, but there were a few tough questions on africa...</p>
<p>haha random but i love hellgoodbye and just put on call n return and opened this thread</p>
<p>good luck on your test</p>
<p>I don't remember much
last year there was an extremely random mc question:
"In what scientific field was the discovery of DNA made in?"
and the choices were like physics, chemistry, biology, etc.
lol</p>
<p>i do know that I completely screwed up at least one of the frqs and still did well. The question was about comparing russian and chinese communist revolutions during a certain time period and you were supposed to do like Lenin and Sun Yat-sen and I did Stalin and Mao Zhedong, or something to that effect. I must have mentioned the other two about once in the whole essay. whatever.</p>
<p>yeah i remember that one. i thought it was something about how dna was a double helix though. and the exam isnt very specific.</p>
