<p>@ChaddyVeee14 Dome of the Rock is a definite yes, but as for Hagia Sophia I’m not so sure…maybe it depends on how you talked about it. </p>
<p>@planes42 Guernica will probably count since it tells an abstracted event. The Book of Kells could work if you identified specific pictures from it to get full credit.</p>
<p>@chandlersyf This is tough to determine what will happen. The college board is strict about following directions and working in order so that no student has an unfair advantage over the others. I do not know if you followed the correct timing for each part of if he made you work go back to the long essays, so it is hard to determine. I hope that whatever the case that the college board understands what happened and your scores won’t be canceled.</p>
<p>@starlightdawn They are on the college board website. The answers are listed at the end of the questions.</p>
<p>I would recommend memorizing the major art history periods first, their dates and what makes them special, then I would go into specifics like artists, works etc. </p>
<p>As for beyond the western approach, Islam is one you should memorize. Since a majority of western art is focused on Christianity, Islam is the second largest religion you wish to cover in order to have most things religion covered. Yes Buddhism and Hinduism are huge in art history, but not as big as Islam and Christianity. This last test was HUGE on religion, primarily Christianity. Memorize those two and you can cover themes like piligramage, global influences, etc. </p>
<p>Japan Art is important as well, but post 1500s. Pieces after this time period heavily influence the impressionists, so that’s why, and so you cannot waste that much time covering the entire span of Japanese art.</p>
<p>Stokstand of course. I used the 4th edition. The cheapest you can find them is for about 50$, but I found a book which really helped and apparently nobody uses it.</p>
<p>This book goes through many famous artists (and even has pictures of them!) in detail yet keeps it down to usually two pages. The bigger artists usually have 3-4, but the language is less dull than the aircraft carrier of a textbook which Stokstand is. Speaking about that, this book is about 6in<em>9in</em>3/2in in dimensions. It is a small book compared to most art history texts so you can take it anywhere and start reading. </p>
<p>As for the essays, go on collegeboard and read sample essays, or buy an AP art history book from Princeton or Barrons. Either one works.</p>
<p>@meerkat800 Hifives, I got a 5 too and I knew that I did terrible on my frq LOL. I thought I got a 4 because of the free response but apparently not ^_^. I might have gotten very close to 100 on the mc, but omg, congrats to all who passed!</p>
<p>Hi everyone! I’m taking APAH this year online and am wondering outside of a good teacher and class, what will help me earn a 5 on my AP exam. I’ve already bought the Barron’s review book, is that sufficient?</p>
