I am currently taking Ap Euro and I am struggling in that class with a 82 percent and I want to earn an 90. The quizzes are extremely hard and the teacher picks the most irrelevant questions and I never do well. Any study tips? Or any type of advice you would give me? Anything would be helpful! Thank you!
I assume you are taking history. Think about studying is story telling. Let’ say you are expected to teach a class a fourth grade class about sailing across the ocean to reach the colonies. What would be interesting, funny, frightening, special about the voyage and settling in a new land? Tell yourself that story by adding people, sailing, forests, rustling in trees at night from… History is truth in story telling with dates and fun too.
Don’t memorize information which is too dreary. Turn learning into a story to yourself and sprinkle in some names, places or dates. Also check out the details to discover what you should focus on. Look at timelines and family lineage. History is totally fun and interesting. Enjoy.
Prep books!! I used Princeton review and 5steps to a 5. You just have to read the sections that you are studying in class right before every test or quiz and you should be able to do better. You could also watch videos on YouTube or khan academy.
