Best Way to Cram?

What is the best way to cram for the AP US History exam, being a week left.
Currently, I was thinking of just reading the REA book from A-Z.
Does anyone have any other suggestions or experiences?

Please reply ASAP!

I think the REA book is a little bit too long to be read in 1 week. I think the best way to cram is do the old APUS exams. :rolleyes: And review the major time periods in US history only.

For sure go over social change, etc. Look for patterns. Gradual changes. Raw facts won't really help you.

Also, you can pretty much ignore the period after 1970. It's not tested.

Good luck to all!

why would there be no questions after 1970?

The testers know that a lot of history classes fall behind. My Princeton Review study aid quotes College Board as saying that if you know nothing about the period after 1970, the absolute worst that will happen to you is that you might miss a multiple choice question or two.
