I didn’t take AP US history this year, junior year – I took honors instead. Kind of a mistake because it make my schedule look less rigorous. I’m good at history though and I think I could do pretty well on the exam unless it’s extremely hard?? I don’t know!! I could potentially get a 4 on it and send that to colleges w/ my application to strengthen my profile…Thoughts?
The APUSH test is this Friday so you might be out of luck. IIRC there aren’t any last minute walk-ins for AP tests.
It’s not extremely hard if your a good test taker. There is a lot of writing portions on it and if you can remember just a few things you can do well on those I think. The multiple choice is pretty easy for someone whose studied but ultimately you need to know what event or era happened in chronological order, differences and changes in parties, developments in agriculture, industry, etc. Even then, you could probable get a 4 if you are confident in history.
P.S. I’m grinding for the APUSH Exam right now
OP, did you end up taking the exam?
My college freshman son asked some of his HS friends about this year’s APUSH test and they mentioned it was relatively easy compared to exams from previous years.
