AP Euro MC???

My teacher didn’t give multiple choice questions except on the first quarter exam, the semester exam, and the practice test.

Our unit tests have social/economic/cultural/intellectual questions from the book (we take notes on it for homework), and the 20(!) pages or so of notes that result from her lectures on political/diplomatic events. They always have true/false questions, fill-in-the-blanks, IDs, and an essay; I think the specific factual information they test (and how the tests test ANYTHING that was covered in the unit, forcing us to learn our notes really well) really help with the more trend-focused questions on the AP exam, because we have details from which to draw inferences.

Starting second semester, we had review quizzes that took, literally, lines from the textbook turned into true/false and fill-in-the-blank questions. Then, we had a similar test on Ch. 1-5 of the Viault book.

So, in short, people do read Modern European History, but my teacher told us that it lacks the social/economic/cultural/intellectual stuff on the exam.

HOWEVER, that’s not the REA book, which is an even larger brick:

[Amazon.com: Best Test Prep AP European History Exam (REA) The Best Test Prep for the AP European History Exam: 9th Edition (Best Test Preparation for the Advanced Placement Examination): M. W.

Have fun! :D
