APUSH was the best class ever!! There’s a lot more information than AP Euro, but a lot of it is familiar because US history is taught from elementary school. With AP Euro, almost all the info is new. There are sooo many monarchs. It gets confusing.
APUSH moves faster so you won’t get bored. AP Euro moves to different places during the same era because it’s covering the history of all of Europe and it begins to feel like you’ve been on a single topic forever.
i love history, but APUSH was a better experience for me. My sister took both in one year and she scored a 5 in APUSH and a 3 in AP Euro.
As far as the tests go, Idk about the MC but the DBQs are sooo different. The APUSH DBQ is harder! AP Euro’s doesn’t even require much outside info. Essays seem pretty similar…I guess.
