<p>hey guys whose ready whose nervous anythoughts?
Spring breaks coming up Ill start prepping soon
We took a practice test in class today without any studying it was sooooo easy thank god!</p>
<p>I’m planning to take it next year as a self study! Can I still join in this thread?</p>
<p>I have this exam coming up in less than a couple months now. I have no worries because I took the class last semester, after a year of APUSH. It made Gov seem a lot easier since some of the knowledge overlapped from last year, especially the court cases. I took both practice tests in PR and scored nearly perfect on both for MC without studying beforehand. I average a decent score on the essays. I only need to score a 3 so I’m good for this one. :)</p>
<p>Crash Course was delivered today! I’ll be starting official studying next week. I really should say “official learning” as for I had a student teach since the start of the semester and he didn’t teach. At all.</p>
<p>This class is such a joke for me. If I don’t get a 5 on this exam, I’ll be disappointed. Lovegov =]</p>
<p>I just got crash course, but I’m waiting on cliffnotes</p>
<p>Is anyone else having trouble downloading the crash course’s online practice exam</p>
<p>I’d be surprised if I got a 5 - we didn’t cover much material and the things we did cover are completely irrelevant to the test. </p>
<p>I’m still on the fence about Crash Course - does it look promising?</p>
<p>^Why are you on the fence?</p>
<p>Haha! I was just going to reference you to Dark Knight’s research/data collection.</p>
<p>I loveee crash course!! I also used pr and cliffs during the class which really helped since our class tests r really really hard and they r curved so the highest mult choice gets a hundred (with out the essay usually with the essays the highest grade is mid to high 90s) when we took the practice AP we all go to our teacher whyddd u make us work sooo hard this is sooo much easier! (We even had weekly current events quizes on the week in review from the nytimes!) I really want a 5 on this one so I need to cram like crazy.
I was dismayed to find Dark Nights analysis of pr as horrible I was going to supplement crash course with pr it seems like too much on its own! Now i dont know if I should use my pr or cliffnotes which before dks analysis I wouldve recommended </p>
<p>Did u guys start studying yet?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Probably because I don’t feel comfortable filling in certain gaps I have about the material with a simple review book lol. I have the same issue w/ AP Biology. When I learn something, I like to go way in depth with the material and fully immerse myself in it. But I suppose anyone can point out the impracticality in that learning style given the very little time I have till the AP Exam.</p>
<p>Lol, I admit I didn’t really take a close look at your thread (which I will when I get a moment). But I did come across Crash Course a few months ago and saw the author was Larry Kreiger (almost a selling point lol), and I made a quick mental note to keep that in the back of my mind.</p>
<p>Ideally it would be best to study topics in depth. But time is passing. Best strategy is to identify the key topics and study them.</p>
<p>I think I’m going to start posting review questions soon.</p>
<p>^^ please, do!</p>
<p>Crash Course probably produces the best results in the least amount of time.</p>
<p>hurrah for its title :)</p>
<p>I love this class so much.</p>
<p>I just took the 2002 test and got 50/60 (with 10 wrong) on the MC part. Anyone know how well would I have to do on the essays to get a 5?</p>
<p>Bump…</p>
<p>Less than a month left!</p>
<p>And I’m also adding a question for review (if anyone wants to answer):</p>
<p>*Define congressional oversight. *</p>
<p>I guess just continue on w/ the questions…</p>
