Summary: Adequate Enough to Get you A 3... 5? not a chance
Comment: I took the AP US History Exam in May 2003. The m/c were easy at first but started getting really hard. This book is good enough to score you a 2 or 3... possibly a 4, and if you're a natural history person or paid attention in class maybe a 5... i chose this book because the history review in the book was short (the review itself was only about 180pages long) compared to the other ap books. the review was very general, kinda vague... not indepth. therefore, i left about 30 m/c blank! well, that's how unsure i was about the questions. this book didn't do a good job in my opinion. i am not very eager to find out how i did on the national exam. however, this book is probably very useful if you've only got 2 weeks to prepare for the national exam. otherwise, i suggest something more indepth. the REA AP bok is way TOO MUCH indepth in my opinion, which is why i bought it and ended up not reading it. :( find something in between. g'luck!

Summary: How to Pass the AP US History exam
Comment: OK, this book is helpful as are most AP US History books.However, don't relly on it (that is, unless u have like two weeks left and have not paid attention in class, jk). OK, this is my formula that will help you pass the AP US History exam (i got a 4):
1)Listen to your teacher no matter how boring he may be. He knows his stuff, and his input is most likely helpful.
2)Read your own History text book, and take notes out of it.
3)Read the AP review in this book atleast twice (i read it five times, it's good for your memory)
4)Absolutely take all the practice tests
5)Sleep well before the test
6)Believe in yourself (honestly, a big part of this test is psychological)
**optional**
a)Pray if you have some faith
b)cheat...no jk, that is bad...tell yourself you can do it (over and over until you believe it)
Good luck

Summary: Good brief review
Comment: This book is great if you want to score a 3 or 4 on the exam, don't have a lot of time to study, and have had a very good teacher who has drilled the information into your head. If you haven't then get a more extensive book. You can't learn the material from this book, just review it. This is the only review book I found that was historically accurate.The chapters can be confusing and hard to digest. The info is short but condenced, meaning that in a single paragraph you will get all of the information found in 30 textbook pages. There is not a lot of great info for the essays so the highest you might get is a three unless you get lucky. I had a great teacher and reviewed with this for about 15 hours. I ended up getting a 4 on the exam because I had a lot of outside info about the essays.
