Prerequisite AP Comp Gov & Politics

Test Preparation AP History & Social Sciences
1

SoSo we take honors classes to prepare for AP tests</p>

eg. Honors chemistry move on-----> AP Chem</p>

However in my high school we don’t have high school honors classes for comparative politics.</p>

So is there exactly a high school prerequisite students have to take before moving on AP Comp Gov? </p>

I’m sure there is though otherwise my freshman cousin (14 yr old) will be able to start AP Comp Gov? </p>

Thanks!</p>

<p>No, comp gov is a baby AP, i guess civics might be a pre req</p>

<p>Clearly, it’s completely up to your individual school, but it wouldn’t hurt to have an Honors World History course under your belt before Comparative Government.</p>

<p>I took comparative government only after a semester of AP world, at the time I started the AP Comp Gov, my history class was only in the middle ages and i got a 4 on the ap comp gov test and i knew nothing about politics before i took this class you should be fine.</p>

<p>The best prerequisite for AP Comparative Government is a club called Model United Nations. At my school, it is also a class called Contemporary World Issues/American Problems. Trust me, I earned a 5.</p>
