We’ve realized that while some students may be aiming for top scores on the AP US History exam, there are many students who are aiming to just pass with a 3. Unfortunately for these students, prep books on the market today bombard them with definitions, dates, and trivia promising them that if they memorize everything, they can even get a 4 or 5. Our philosophy is simple: why study more than you need to when you just need a 3 and want credit for the AP course? In fact, what are the essential and most prevalent facts that get asked on AP US History exams year after year? Wouldn’t it be better for these students to just learn what gets quizzed the most instead of struggling to memorize everything?
