<p>Australia doesn’t have too much in the scope of AP WH.
Just know that it was originally settled by the Polynesians and that it was later part of the British Empire and that Britain sent a lot of the prisoners/criminals there.</p>

<p>Also,
Are the Barron’s practice tests inflated or too easy (like much easier than the actual)? I only took one and I had like a 109/120 when my usual scores are in the 90s.</p>

<p>Funny, I thought the Barron’s tests are harder than the 2011 Released questions haha… I got consistent Cs on every test in that book…</p>

<p>I really hope that the 2011 released questions are similar to the test because they aren’t as hard as what I expected.</p>
