AP Resources
If you are serious about the AP Exam, and you want to PASS - you must STUDY outside of the classroom. You also need to listen in class. I know it can be tempting to talk or work on an upcoming and pressing assignment, but listening makes a difference. And my pass rate proves it. Last year I had 70 students take the exam, and 51 passed! It works!
Here are some great Study/Review Resources:
1. Prep Book
The favorite book is AMSCO, but they are all good. All Prep books have condensed and important content. Also they have full exams that tell you why the right answer is the answer.
2. Knowt.org
This is an amazing AI Study tool. They have 37 AP Classes on their app. They have mock exams and flash cards, I had a student, who made a 5, swear by this! Check it out. Also you have to register, but it is free!
3. Khan Academy
4. Heimler's History on You tube
5. Gilder Leiherman

Be Careful for What you Wish for!
In AP US History you do not need to know Military History. If you are a military history buff I am sorry. You just need to know what led to the conflict, what happened, and the impact. So for the American Revolution you must know the Road to Revolution (1763 - 1776) In 1763 England won the 7 Year's War - ending Salutary Neglect. England built up a large debt, and began taxing the colonist to pay for future protection. One of the first acts was the Stamp Act,
The Stamp Act taxed all Paper Goods like playing cards and documents and newspapers. The colonist were furious, and decided to fight back. They established the Stamp Act Congress, and got what they wanted - England Repealed the Stamp Act!
England replaced the Stamp Act with the Declaratory Act.
It was worse than the Stamp Act, and then right after they passed the Townshend Acts. You do not want to pay a tax on Paper - you can on everything else - paint, lead, and tea
