World History
Which books would be best for preparing for the World History test? I'm taking it in June, so I have two months now.

i read barrons and kaplan and found barrons to be more useful, although their practice tests are not accurate representations of the actual test.
i also used barrons ap world history flash cards which were extremely helpful and that i recommend above any of the books.

I'm using the barrons book and I'm really liking it.

It's a very complete book and I recommend.

i found the flashcards at borders. im sure they have them at barnes and nobles too. its a small white box that has like 600 cards in it, costs around 20 bucks. its a separate item. i liked it because when i was too lazy to read the book/bored out of my mind, id just have my mom quiz me with the cards.

Thanks for the replies. I'm definitely ordering the Barron's book and might get the flash cards.
