THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!!! July 16, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I just finished my Freshman year at college, and I am lucky enough to be at a college that allows its students to take AP tests through their senior year in order to get out of General Education requirements. My school has this nasty World History requirement so I decided to try my hand at the AP World History test.
I'd heard in the past that the "5 Steps to a 5" books are amazing, so I decided to make it my sole study guide for the test. Granted, being a college student, I had a ton of homework and didn't have time to study this AP book during the school year. To make matters worse, the AP test was right after my college finals ended. So, I was exhausted and only had 2 full days to read/skim/study this book.
As much as history books tend to bore me, this book was a very easy (and interesting!) read and everything clicked in my head after reading it only once (trust me, that doesn't typically happen!) The book's change/continuity charts were super helpful not only in reviewing for the CCT essay but as an easy way to cram. Also, the book essentially tells you the bare minimum you need to know for the test.
I got to the test super nervous, thinking I didn't know anything, but unbeknownst to me, this book prepped me so well, I flew through the test and scored a 5.
If you want a book that will teach you to pass the AP World History test in the easiest way possible, THIS IS THE BOOK YOU WANT!
5 Steps to a 5 World History 2008-2009 May 25, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
While using the 5 Steps to a 5 AP World History 2008-2009 edition I was Very glad at the fact that they had several Charts at the End of Each Time Period or Time Frames that the AP college Board has chosen. At the End of Each Time period they had a chart that was organized with different regions ex. middle east , Southeast Asia, and Almost all Major Regions. This Chart Helped because it gave Political, Economic, and Social Changes and Also CONTINUITES that occurred in that region. It Was an idle Book for quick review not Very Very Detailed But if you were Paying attention in Class very worth While. Its a Quick Skim of things and is great for those last week Review worksheets.
