Reader ReviewsLike any other ap us history student I was faced with the task of taking the AP USH exam. However the harder task was choosing which book to use to study for it. I looked at all the big names: Kaplan, Barrons, PR. And then I saw this. The book helped me get a 4 along with Barron flashcards i bought (buy those too!). Goods: gives a good summary and 2 practice tests and dbq's and a diagnostic Cons: eh, wait for an updated version of the book. didn't really go 'really' in depth as i would've liked. I had a really REALLY good teacher, so the book didn't help a decent amount by itself. there are only 5 questions at the end of each chapter, which test easy questions. Final note: If they update this book, buy it. IF they don't look at other reviews for (09) USH books on amazon.
