<p>NOT AP.</p>
<p>Just Honors.</p>
<p>Any suggestions are greatly appreciated...</p>
<p>Should i reread the two chapters??? I didn't read them well...</p>
<p>How did/do you study for your AP/Honors History tests?</p>
<p>Read the chapters twice the night before and then read the morning of before you head to school</p>
<p>The thing with history is, if you have a good memory, you'll do great.
Honestly all I do is pay attention in class and do the homework
I have never gotten below a 90 on a test even without studying.
I slack so much in that class and I still have a solid A.</p>
<p>But make sure you always read what is assigned and look over notes frequently.
You should be fine.</p>
<p>Have a basic understanding of the chapter and reread it the morning before the test.</p>
<p>Try to make connections. I just had a history test today, and here are some of the connections I made to help remember things:</p>
<p>by year
1968- LBJ doesn’t go for re-election due to unpopularity with the Vietnam War
MLK Jr. is assassinated in Memphis, TN
Kerner commission assigned to find the cause of urban riots “discovers” that conditions are separate and unequal</p>
<p>by theme
black radicals that changed the modern civil rights movement from MLK’s nonviolence-
Stokely Carmichael & black power
Malcolm X & black separatism (though he later softened his stance)
Huey Newton, Bobby Seale & the Black Panthers</p>
<p>it helps to connect things like that. for me at least. everyone learns differently.</p>
<p>Wow, you really have to be an incredibly fast reader to do some of this. It takes me a good 4 hours to thoroughly read a chapter and about 2 hours to skim/review.</p>
<p>I usually just read over the chapter once, look over my notes and highlight some key information. Then…just stare at it for a very very long time (usually I don’t realize I’m doing this though)
And then in the morning, flip through the book and read over the higlighted stuff in your notes. And study a little bit throughout the day. </p>
<p>Haha it works pretty well for me right now but I’m pretty sure I’ll have to come up with other technique in college</p>
<p>Mmm, i love History. 
Read the textbook a lot, highlight. TALK about it.
Seriously, discussing it in class/ with friends is the easiest way to remember stuff.</p>
<p>And as for source analysis and stuff like that, practice is the way to go!=D</p>
<p>Are you talking unit or chapter? A unit would take me about two and a half hours -chapters about 30 minutes each</p>
<p>I’m also really slow at reading text books, which is why I don’t read the book for one of my history classes. It doesn’t interest me and I’m still probably in the top 3 in the class.</p>
<p>For history tests I really don’t study that much. When I was in Honors history 9th grade I used to read back through my notes the night before, which I think is a good idea. If there was something hard to remember I’d connect it to something else in my head. Sometimes I would read through them over the phone with friends and that was always good fun. I think the main thing is not studying but what happens in class. If you learn the stuff in class, you don’t have to study all that hard.</p>
<p>Read through the book and create a study sheet with key terms and define them.</p>
