It will seem very difficult if it is your first ever AP. I took it ast yr in 10th. Slacked off alot, only read the first 2 chapters crammed in the last 2 weeks, managed a 3 (thanks to multiple choice; my essays were atrocious IMO). The questions are very ambiguous (when there are two or three “correct” answers its kinda hard figuring out which to choose lol).

My advice would be to READ the book, the ENTIRE BOOK, from START TO FINISH. I’m doing that right now in APUSH and the info just sticks in your head like glue, esp if you takes notes while reading. Not only that, but you’ll remember more things in the long term.

The only thing that might be different from APUSH is AP World is all over the place as far as time period, as most books go by region. The biggest focus is on Euro and Asia. Hey only talk about the US in regard to how it influenced Europe.
