Don’t get stuck spending countless hours staring blankly at your textbook and pretending to study.  \nInstead, use some of these helpful strategies and as my old rowing coach used to say,“Work smarter, not harder!”Here is a quick guide showing you how to study for the APUSH exam. We will first explain some helpful strategies for practice throughout the school year, and then some strategies for the last stressful weeks before the test.  \nThe Prep Work: Good for the months leading up to the exam  \n1.Rewrite class notes.  \nIf you aren’t already, taking awesome notes as you go through class or read the textbook, you really need to start. No matter how much you think you will remember, or how little you have studied for classes in the past, you will need good notes to succeed in APUSH. It is a lot of information to deal with, and your notes are the key to keeping it all together. That’s why it’s a good idea to rewrite your class notes. If you are like me and your handwriting is sloppy, going back through and typing up class notes is essential. Not only will your notes be clearer the second time through, but also, when you go back and look at them later, you will actually know what you were trying to say.  \nInterested in a Learnerator license?

Review weekly.  \nIf you ask almost any former AP student, chances are they wish they had started studying earlier in the year. It is always possible to cram your way to a passing grade a couple nights before a test. However, if you are studying early and consistently, your last couple weeks before the final will be much less stressful, and you will actually retain the information you learn. This way as you fine-tune your DBQ and FRQ skills, you don’t also have to cram immense amounts of knowledge down your skull. The easiest way to stay on top of this is to look over a weeks worth of notes every Friday. Then, write a paragraph or two summarizing what you learned that week. It may sound tedious, but it will ensure that you comprehend information and it is sticking with you.  \n3. Practice taking tests!  \nEven if you haven’t gone through all of the course materials, it is never too early to start taking practice tests. This is perhaps one of the best things you can do to study for the AP US History test. Practice tests often use old questions from actual exams, so they help you get a better feel for what test questions might be like. As you become familiar with the format of the test, you will start to pick upon possible questions as you read through a chapter.  \nAs you read a paragraph about the impact that Jonathan Edwards’ book, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, had on the first Great Awakening, you might start to visualize it in the form of the question: “Which preacher’s famous book, Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God, helped spark the first Great Awakening?”  \nwith the answer of course being Jonathan Edwards.  \nInterested in a Learnerator license?

These portions of theAP test often hang over people’s heads and cause them a lot of trouble on the exam. However, the more you practice answering these questions, the more ready you will be to tackle them.
