There is a lot of information to memorize and comprehend; historical facts, events, places, people, dates, names. It can all get a little overwhelming. Fortunately, studying for the APUSH exam doesn\u2019t have to be as arduous or inconvenient as you might think. Use our AP US History study guide to help keep your study time productive!<\/p>\n<h2>AP US History study guide overall review<\/h2>\n<h3>Scoring guidelines<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s always a good idea to review exam expectations before studying. Understanding what kind of answers score best is a smart first step in formulating an effective study plan. For instance, on the APUSH exam multiple-choice represents the largest overall portion of your score. But 60% of your remaining score is comprised of some form of essay writing!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Multiple choice, 55 questions = 40% of your total exam score<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Short answer, 3 questions = 20%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Document based, 1 question = 25% of your total exam score<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Long essay, 1 question = 15%<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nIn order to create a study plan that works best for you, take a look at your current skill set. Are you an accomplished essay writer? In previous APUSH class tests or <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/hs\/ap\/5-good-online-practice-apush-tests\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">practice tests<\/a>, do you score well on multiple-choice questions? How well do you assess historical evidence? Most students require additional practice in <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/hs\/ap\/prep-apush-essays\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">writing timed essays<\/a>, so make sure you adjust your study schedule to accommodate this type of practice into your study schedule. <\/p>\n<h3>Key concepts and events<\/h3>\n<p>As you review key APUSH concepts and events, keep a \u201cwhole picture\u201d outlook in mind. The idea is not to memorize every little detail, but rather understand what lead to and consequences of major historical concepts.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAP US History exam questions require students to connect information across time periods, so it is important to be able to determine what a theme\/event did or did not do. For example, the Emancipation Proclamation <em>did<\/em> help make European intervention in the war almost impossible. But it <em>did not<\/em> actually free slaves.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAlthough you may already have an ultimate list of AP US History key terms, themes and vocabulary, it never hurts to supplement with other options.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rivermill-academy.org\/common\/pages\/DisplayFile.aspx?itemId=24321881\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rivermill Academy:<\/a> list of over 444 terms and vocabulary, spanning all APUSH chapters<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLlair5BOIPJZzLARtGCY6KiZ7dwRhv3Uw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Adam Norris:<\/a> all 27 key concepts in chronological order, periods 1-9<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/quizlet.com\/subject\/apush-key-concepts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quizlet:<\/a> multiple quizzes focuses on APUSH key concepts and events<\/p>\n<h3>Key terms and vocabulary<\/h3>\n<p>Vocabulary is always an important feature on any exam, APUSH is no exception. Like key concepts and events, terms and vocabulary show up on every single AP US History exam. And for good reason. Understanding and utilizing vocabulary properly is an indicator of how well you know the material on the exam.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nSome of our top choices for AP US History study support:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/quizlet.com\/subject\/APUSH-vocabulary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Quizlet Vocabulary:<\/a> even more select quizzes targeting AP US History vocabulary<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.apstudynotes.org\/us-history\/vocabulary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">AP U.S. History Notes:<\/a> complete vocabulary words organized by chapter <\/p>\n<h2>AP US History study guide: Multiple choice questions<\/h2>\n<p>On the AP US History exam, multiple choice questions are generally asked in sets of 2-5 questions. Some can rely on graphics, maps, charts or other alternative evidence to determine an answer. Because of the nature of multiple choice, you already know the correct answer is there somewhere &#8211; you just have to find it!<\/p>\n<h3>Strategies for answering multiple choice<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t be afraid to guess.<\/strong> APUSH does not penalize for incorrect answers. So a good test-taking strategy is to answer every single questions &#8211; even if it is just a guess.<br \/>\n<strong>Eliminate options you know are incorrect.<\/strong> There are often 1-2 choices that are very obviously wrong. Get rid of those possibilities right away so you can focus on more quality options.<br \/>\n<strong>Look at other questions for possible answers.<\/strong> Although it doesn\u2019t happen often, sometimes tests provide answers to other questions while asking about something else. Use context clues to help further narrow down possible choices.<br \/>\n<strong>When down to two possible answers,<\/strong> always choose the one that is \u201cmost true\u201d. <\/p>\n<h2>AP US History study guide: AP US History essays<\/h2>\n<h3>Short answer<\/h3>\n<p>Each AP US History <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/hs\/ap\/apush-short-answer-questions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">short answer question<\/a> begins with a prompt that involves a historical source of some kind; an image, quote, maps, graphs or document. Analyze the historical sources, then use that information to compose a response. Many APUSH short answer questions focus on opposing viewpoints, so expect to provide support for both sides.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nShort answer questions ask you to answer 3 separate parts (A, B, C) involving the prompt. Each part is graded separately, so if you miss a point on part A, you still can get full points for the remaining parts of the question. You will write three mini-essays total: the first two questions both focus on periods 3-8, then choose between Question 3 (periods 1-5) and Question 4 (periods 6-9). <\/p>\n<h3>Data-based question<\/h3>\n<p>AP US History <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/hs\/ap\/apush-dbq-format\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">data-based questions<\/a> begin with a set of 5-7 historical documents. After reading through each of the documents, construct an essay that includes both information found in the historical documents, as well as your own prior APUSH knowledge regarding any content relevant to the topic.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAP College Board recommends taking the first 10-15 minutes to plan and outline your essay, then use the remaining time to write your well-constructed essay. Unlike the short answer, DBQ needs a thesis, main ideas that support your thesis and specific reference to the provided historical documents. Don\u2019t forget to always include outside information; essays are a way to demonstrate the depth of your APUSH content knowledge and understanding.<\/p>\n<h3>Long essay<\/h3>\n<p>During your exam, you are given a set of instructions to help guide you through writing your AP US History <a href=\"https:\/\/secure-media.collegeboard.org\/digitalServices\/pdf\/ap\/ap-us-history-sample-responses-leq-3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">long essay<\/a>. Points are given for the quality of your thesis, application of historical thinking skills, support of your argument with evidence and synthesizing with additional content.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nLike the DBQ, you only have one chance to make a great impression. Make sure you answer each section of the prompt completely and effectively. Remember that the long essay comes last after a series of 4 other essays &#8211; prepare your writing hand by <a href=\"https:\/\/secure-media.collegeboard.org\/ap\/pdf\/ap-us-history-frq-2017.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">practicing your writing in advance<\/a>!<\/p>\n<h2>Additional tips and strategies for writing APUSH essays:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Answer the prompt completely.<\/strong> We cannot stress this enough! No matter which essay you are writing, in order to receive full points your response needs to completely answer the prompt!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Brainstorm and outline for 10-15 minutes.<\/strong> Take the time at the beginning to organize your thinking. It will pay off when you write your essay in a concise and well-structured manner. Remember to focus your responses to specifically address the prompt.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Write clearly and succinctly.<\/strong> Make sure APUSH readers can follow your argument, explanations and evidence. Write your essay with flow and consistency so that your ideas don\u2019t get lost in poor writing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Review and revise.<\/strong> Take the time to re-read your AP US History essays. Make sure your response explicitly responds to each part of the prompt and correct any errors that may prevent readers from fully understanding your intent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nFor more information on everything APUSH, visit our blogs at <a href=\"https:\/\/magoosh.com\/hs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Magoosh.com<\/a>! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Efficient studying increases your chances of success on the APUSH exam.
