I took World History freshman year (got a 5)…and I self-studied Barron’s. They have a really thorough review (I hated going through all the pages, but it was worth it!) that will probably guarantee you a 5 if you read through it all. That’s the best guide - Barron’s is also usually harder than the actual test, and I prefer to study a harder test, and have the AP be a breeze.

PR I bought last year for European History and it was virtually worthless. Almost none of the stuff I studied there was on the actual test, and I really think it doesn’t cover the necessary concepts for the test. I just relied on my knowledge from World History (Barron’s) and over the year and still got a 5.

So I’d def. reccomend Barron’s for World History…and that will even supplement your material for European History. Good luck!
