How should I study for the SAT IIs in US History?

I am going to be taking the AP US History Exam and so far I have my regular class notes, and the REA AP US History Book. Will I need to buy another book for the SAT IIs or is it exactly the same?

honestly, there's little difference between the subject test and the ap mc section. I've taken multiple practice tests from each and in terms of percentages, the subject test is only slightly higher for me. If you can get a confident 5 on APUSH, you'll easily pull off a 750+ on the subject test. With that said, get the official collegeboard study guide and take the practice test before making conclusions. Best of luck on friday.

If you took AP US I imagine it would be pretty easy and to just use that. Add stuff about Columbus and Pre-columbus because I think they test that on SAT II. In the Sparknotes Test Prep section they have a little study guide that outlines everything.

Hope that helps!
