<p>Which REA AP US book is the one that’s always being recommended on CC?

<p>The Crash Course. People find that one wayyy better than the other one 
It helped me a lot on the APUSH exam.</p>
<p>The second one–the Crash Course, written by Larry Krieger.</p>
<p>Definitely the crash course. That book is really effective with an AP class.</p>
<p>Ok, so now that we’ve established that it’s the Crash Course, I noticed that the author of the crash course is the same guy who authored the Direct Hits AP US Book ([Amazon.com:</a> Direct Hits US History in a Flash: for the AP and SAT II (9781936551040): Larry Krieger, Ted Griffith: Books](<a href=“http://www.amazon.com/Direct-Hits-US-History-Flash/dp/1936551047/ref=cm_pdp_rev_itm_img_1]Amazon.com:”>http://www.amazon.com/Direct-Hits-US-History-Flash/dp/1936551047/ref=cm_pdp_rev_itm_img_1)) Is one better over the other?</p>
<p>From my experience, Crash Course must be combined with another book while DH (Direct Hits) is enough by itself to net a 5. If you combine DH and Crash Course, you’re golden.</p>
<p>I’m selling an REA Crash Course on eBay for 5 bucks.</p>

<p>^Out of curiosity, does it cost money to list an item on eBay? And can minors (i.e. under 18 years of age) make an account?</p>

<p>“A person under 18 can use an adult’s account with the permission of the account holder. However, the account holder is responsible for everything done with that account.”</p>
<p>Thank you both!</p>
