I am currently self-studying AP Comparative Government. Many people on this forum told me that this exam was not difficult at all to study for, and I am finding that to be true. Comparative Government is also extremely interesting. I have not taken the exam (like I said, I am self-studying and the test won’t come until May), but I feel like I have enough time to sufficiently prepare myself for the exam. If you are offered a class, you may want to take it, as I do not know what kind of a learner you are. If they don’t offer it, then you could definitely self-study. If you choose to self-study, I suggest you follow the advice of many people on this forum and purchase the Ethel Woods AP Comparative Government and Politics: A Study Guide 4th Edition. At first I was skeptical, as I didn’t really like the book. Now however, as I’ve gotten farther in, I find myself enjoying it and becoming more and more interested. It seems that many people read this book only and make a 5. So yes, you could definitely self-study this subject. I hope I helped :D
