<p>Umm, we color maps in my AP Human Geography class and talk about Volleyball for half of the period. Our tests are literally straight out of the book. The essays are a breeze.</p>
<p>So, uh… If I read the Princeton Review book and the Barrons, can I get a 5?</p>
<p>LOL - I think you should also check out the materials at AP Central and probably order a released test from the College Board’s Online Store.</p>
<p>You color maps?..How old are you?</p>
<p>^You shouldn’t look down on him just because his teacher makes him color maps. Besides, it’s still a great way to know geography. It’s better than looking at a map and memorizing it. </p>
<p>I believe Barron’s is the best book based on the Consolidated list, but I don’t know since I’m not studying for the exam.</p>
<p>^^
We also do “current events”, watch Disney movies, and talk about random cities, all of which do nothing to further our understanding of the subject.</p>
<p>Yeah, what do you expect from an AP social science class. All the information you need to get a 5 on the exam is your textbook. However, your teacher should lecture just to clarify some information, but reading from a social science textbook shouldn’t be that obscure with information unless it is unorganized.</p>
