Official AP US History Thread 2013

<p>@BurnOut: Reviewing. I’m in the class, but I’ve barely done anything extra to study for the exam.</p>

<p>Based on previous years, there will probably be a DBQ on something 1700-1800 or 1900-1950.</p>

<p>Hi I have the test tomorrow and I was wondering if people have any guesses as to the essay topics?</p>

<p>We’ve done nothing in class all year, so I’m trying to wade through the Barron’s study book -.-</p>

<p>One of the other threads for AP USH started a tiny chat for studying if you guys are interested.</p>

<p>Any essay topic guesses??</p>

<p>my teacher has “guessed” the last 4 DBQs.</p>

<p>@APUSH12345 what is he predicting this year?</p>

<p>Based on the last four DBQs the most likely periods for this one seem to be the late 1800s and the early 1900s, so I’m thinking an expansionism question or a New Deal/Depression question.</p>

<p>Ugh, please don’t be expansionism. I’d much prefer an essay on the period 1789-1824 or on post-WWI issues.</p>

<p>expansionism doesn’t sound that bad… but world I or II i think i’d be better at…</p>

There will be free cookies and much discussion ^.^</p>

<p>Just finished reading the APUSH Crash Course book. We’ll see how that goes.</p>

<p>Just took two practice MC tests (from 1996 and 2001) and got -4 and -8, respectively. That’s good enough for me.</p>

<p>My teacher is predicting the essays will deal with economic issues (Great Depression, New Deal, etc) and/or minority issues (women’s rights, African-Americans/slavery, immigration of different ethic groups, etc). No idea how he formed his prediction, but I thought it was worth mentioning.</p>

<p>Overall, I thought it was a really easy exam. The essay prompts were really straightforward and easy to write about, and I managed to find a way to use all the documents on the DBQ.</p>

<p>The DBQ was gloriously easy.</p>

<p>i agree…easy…</p>

<p>I hope the curve doesn’t make it too hard to get a 5.</p>

<p>Reasonably challenging MC (a little more difficult than the practice tests I took, though probably -10 max). Really easy essays.</p>
