<p>I took an AP Comparative Gov. course this year. The whole year till now, we've done only 5 chapters out of 17 chapters of the AP book. I have two months till the test and i definitely don't want to fail. What would you suggest as a good study for the test (two months from now)? I dont really want to read the whole book, its very tedious.</p>
<p>Many people use Ethel Woods guide to self-study AP Comparative Government, so that might help you. It is the size of a regular textbook, so it is not as if it is hugely shorter than your textbook. Then again, there are no quick shortcuts in life. </p>
<p>There are also many internet resources available. Lurk CC (ie use the search function) to find these guides. There should be several threads about studying Comp. Gov. as well “cram sheets”. If I come across one I’ll post the link here.</p>

<p>I made this Word doc and memorized it the week before the exam. Got a 5. Comp gov is a joke of an exam if you know all of the comparisons backward and forward.</p>
<p>Oh yeah, there’s some stuff about the EU / UN as well (if I remember correctly)…don’t forget about that stuff, I guess.</p>
<p>I read through half of Ethel Woods the weekend before the exam, when I was at a wedding half-way across the country. I crammed through parts of the wedding (sacrificing some sleep) and missed the following Monday of school to study.</p>
<p>Pulled off the most confident 5 ever (usually 80-90% m/c correct on practice tests).</p>
