Book Reviews of Cracking the AP World History Exam, 2006-2007 Edition (College Test Preparation)

Book Review: Student
Summary: 5 Stars

Going into the AP World History Test i was very nervous. Our teacher was new to the AP World program, and we had only finished the last several chapters of our textbook (Howard Spodek's The World's History). Months of studying had been concluded with a mere week of review.

In preparation, i went overboard and ordered Barron's, Kaplan, and Princeton Review. I didn't even both with the other two, Princeton Review was easy to read and follow.

IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to note that the AP World History test does not test on barebone facts (unlike the SAT II), rather covering themes and trends. This is precisely what the Princeton Review book does. Kaplan and Barron's made it hard to look at the general picture, instead focusing on dates and names over relations and ideas.

I breezed through the multiple choice, and finished with three lines to spare on the essay. I ended up with a 5 on the exam, and 790 on the SAT II.

Please note, the book is a study guide, not a textbook, and my preparation complemented two semesters of continual effort. However, it was a phenomenally helpful review tool, and i strongly recommend it for any student hoping to succeed on the AP Test.
