I’m starting to get paranoid about the AP Euro exam. I’m self-studying and almost done with PR (I’m going to read it another time and also do tons of FRQs/DBQs), but is it good enough? I also have the Crash Course from REA; if I use just these two books, practice tests and essays, can I get a 5?</p>
ha, that’s the same with me…but i have a diff. prob. i’m studying with the cliffsAp book but i wondered which one was better princeton or cliffs???</p>
I flicked through Cliff in the bookstore, seemed pretty decent. I had heard good things about PR so that’s what I got, but I’m just panicking as the exam draws nearer. Wish someone who already took it would reply…</p>
Viault is the best, in my opinion. I also have PR, and a textbook. Right now I’m just hoping I can get through all three in this month… </p>
AHH! I just started studying today!</p>
Lol, you can do it… Just make up a schedule or commit yourself to x chapters a day or something. I’m getting in 10 pages a day so I’ll have around 18 days before the exam to read everything over again and have plenty of time for essays and whatnot.</p>
Haha, the only problem with that is I’ll be tired, go to sleep without reading, and continue that process for several days, then be so far behind! I really just need to commit myself, as you said. </p>
Thankfully, I just finished the Reformation, so it can only get more interesting from here! If I read 19 pages a day from A History of Western Society, I should be done by the end of the month, and have what’s left in May (5 days…) to review and skim through Viault and PR. </p>
Hopefully I won’t have a repeat of World History… I opened the textbook the night before the exam and skimmed as if I was possessed I managed to get a 5 though, miraculously!</p>
Well then, hopefully it <em>will</em> be a repeat of World History! A 5’s a 5, right?</p>
