Prep book for the 2012 apush exam

what does that mean? Could you possibly give those to me please?</p>

I went through each test the other day in preparation for a APUSH unit test. The questions were so predictable - each exam, for example, had Marbury vs. Madison.</p>

Ask your teacher for copies of old exams. </p>

Here are some other frequently tested topics I saw while perusing the tests: </p>

  1. Anne Hutchinson (saw her at least 3-4 times)
  2. Republican motherhood (covered on almost every exam)
  3. George Wallace - he keeps popping up in the last set of questions! (70 to 80)
  4. Reaganomics (again, this keeps popping up)</p>

It doesn’t take a book to tell you what you need to know for the APUSH test ;). Again, your teacher should have old copies, and you don’t even need all of the old exams to get a feel for what’s going to be on the test.</p>

Ok thanks. But I will need some prep books. Which ones do u suggest or will DH and AMSCO be sufficient enough without REA/Princeton?</p>

AMSCO is sufficient by itself. DH and AMSCO is overkill, especially if you have a class.</p>

I’ve heard that REA crash course, DH, and AMSCO are the top 3, so I was hoping to get all 3 to ensure myself a great grade on the AP. R u sure its overkill and are they really great without the REA?</p>

Direct Hits alone has enough for a five. Read AMSCO to be safe, but you really don’t need anything else. I have REA Crash Course and it didn’t teach me anything that wasn’t covered in DH.</p>

How about regular REA or Princeton review?</p>

I think they would only be valuable for practice tests.</p>

so DH and AMSCO have all information necessary for a 5? Any other books would be unnecessary in conjunction with those two</p>

AMSCO or DH by itself has enough for a five. That is what I’ve been telling you the last three posts. Use both to be safe, but it is enough, trust me.</p>
