5.0 out of 5 stars Really Excellent, February 13, 2005

By	peachy45676 "peachy45676" (USA) - See all my reviews

I've always been a history student, but I decided I needed to review for the AP before I took it, and this book did me very well. The practice tests were very good. Not only that, but it has a summary of everything that was on the AP tests, and I felt that the level of information the summary gave was very good. It had about 70 pages for 200 years of history, with a surprising amount of detail. I read through the whole summary, and it was never overly academic and was written very well. Take it from someone who got a 5, this is a great help.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than most review books, April 1, 2006

By	Hanh (CA, USA) - See all my reviews

History was never my favorite subject in highschool. Glancing at the Barron's one, I thought if I chose a book with more material to study, I would have a better chance of getting a good score on the AP test. However, the Barron's book proved to be extremely boring, and I was always falling asleep whenever I read it (If History is your favorite subject, go ahead and read Barron's. I myself pick Barron's for Bio. and Chem. simply because I don't get bored easily reading about these subjects). So I picked Princeton Review at last minute, went over only half of the book and took one practice test. I got a 4 on the test. If I had studied more and did both tests I could have got a 5. The only thing I want for improvement is more practice. It's always helpful to have more practice at the end of the chapter and more practice tests as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not A History Buff, August 11, 2005

By	Yoshi729 (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

I had possibly the greatest teacher in the world for my AP US History class. The book he chose although was well written (neglecting the fact that it was ungodly boring)lacked the ability to emphasize important events in US History (just emphasized everything else) nor did it have summaries or pinpoints at the end of the chapter. Thanks to Princeton Reviews book I was able to supplement my rigorous textbook with easy to use information. Also the practice questions were exactly alike to the actual exam although the practice essays need work. This book is great for any student taking the AP US History exam. I highly recommend it.
