<li><p>I have the PR review book, and I’ve realized after going through it, was probably a bad choice. Ooops. 
The exams at the back are nice though; how do they compare to the real exam? Easier or harder?</p></li>
<li><p>Since the PR is not very detailed, and I can’t get another book, would using the Barrons AP World Review Book be a good idea? Or are the topics completely different? </p></li>
<li><p>This is my first SATII, and I’m not quite understanding this… Do all the scores show up on your transcript, or do only the ones you pick show up?</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Any other tips appreciated!</p>
<p>All your scores show up</p>

<li><p>Idk about the SAT II book, but the PR AP World exams were a lot harder.</p></li>
<li><p>Personally I'm using Barrons AP, but it's really detailed (~380 pages of material alone). I doubt you can get through it all in a week. Maybe rereading PR would be your best option.</p></li>
<li><p>Not sure about this.</p></li>

<p>Barron's book is pretty nice/detailed, and you can actually go through it in one week, although it's probably going to be hell.</p>
<p>I have the Barron's ap book already, and I've already read through it once for the ap exam. Since I have that one already, is it worht getting the barron's sat as well? Or are they similar enough that I won't miss out on much by not getting the latter? ;)</p>
<p>--> This week is already hell. xD</p>
<p>Barron's SAT history book is wayyy too detailed i feel. There are specific sections i definitely would skip. (Ex. Sassanid Persia, The Moche Peoples, Kush)</p>
<p>If you feel the PR is way too broad, then use Barrons.</p>
<p>Forget reading Barrons SAT II, the AP one is detailed enough. Your time this week is probably better spent doing practice exams. I only read PR for the AP, and going through Barrons I remember a lot of stuff.</p>
<p>Um. I just started the Barron's book today. which gives me exactly 7 days before the test. about 70 pages or 1.2 units/day. YEAH, it sucks like the devil's butthole</p>
<p>^ Wow. GL. I'm feeling good b/c I'm not yet halfway through my review but I was able to get a 740 on a CB test.</p>
<p>Haha, okay... I'll just go back and reread what I wrote in my barron's ap...</p>
<p>Any info on how the spark notes exam compares to the real thing?</p>
<p>Sparknotes does not have a SAT World History practice exam.</p>
<p>omg yeah im scared for this test cus even though I took the AP exam I already forgot a lot of stuff, and I think I did pretty bad on the MC of the world exam.</p>
<p>Does anyone know if divine right means that the king is holy and chose by god, or that the king was chosen by god but NOT holy?</p>
<p>^ I remember this from PR. Divine right means the king has the God-given ability to do whatever he wants. It has nothing to do with whether he is a holy man or not. Contrast this with the Mandate of Heaven, which only allows the current dynasty to stay in power as long as they rule justly.</p>
<p>How is Kaplan for World History?</p>
