Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
Ahhhh, we can always count on you to subtly give us all useful information. And so gently it too...

Not necessarily true :p Textbooks have too much useless information in them. Make your own outlines or read the ones on this site so that you will know the most important facts. However, I still suggest you read your textbook chapters at least once so you get the bigger picture of whats going on

Lol. Maybe I should. I stopped reading the book after the first test and haven't made as good of a grade as I did since then.
yeah, I'm actually in IB us history and it is soooooo much harder than AP US history because we actually have to know all the useless stuff. IB just tries to get as much stuff into your head as humanly possible. In one of our chapters, we had two paintings about the old west that were by the same person, therefore we were supposed to know about that person and answer questions about him.
You know you're an AP student if...
you think studying is fun.
you constantly find yourself saying "we had homework?"
everything you know about sex, you learned in english class.
If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?
I've lost the will to read the book. Recently, when I read slightly less than half of the outline, I got an 80 on a quiz. The next quiz, I spent hours and hours reading the textbook and taking notes and doing online quizzes, and I got a 55. Seriously, why do I even try?
Besides, when I try to read the book, I just fall asleep. No matter what time it is.
Edit by moderator:
At my school, AP is actually harder. The only thing is, the IB test is harder.
I use this site and print off the notes. Then I read notes as I read that section in the textbook. I have gotten mostly A's on my tests. I also recomended this site to a few friends that just read the notes and get C's.
Well, since I'm me, I get As on all the tests by sheer willpower alone.

I stopped reading my textbook after the first couple of chapters too. It takes to long to go through all that when you can just get the outlines and have the same info. (I'm just really lazy)
