What DVDs or CDs can my daughter view or listen to to help prepare her for the AP American…?
…History exam?
She’s confident about history up through the Civil War, but is anxious about more modern American history. She’s an auditory learner, so the AP exam prep books aren’t as much help for her as something she could see and hear would be. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I took that exam! It’s not too hard. The essay questions are basically BS-ing. Unfortunately, I adore the Princeton AP review books and so I used the Princeton AP U.S. History book to study for it.
BUT, I did some snooping, and here are my favorite options (in no particular order) for your daughter :
1. AP US History Audio Learn
Pros – Mp3 files that can be burned onto CD’s, or put in the iPOD for listening on the go. Instant download after payment! The price is 50$ which isn’t bad compared to the test prep books.
Cons – The table of contents does not seem right for some reason. But I don’t really remember what all is covered so perhaps you should take a gander @ the contents here – http://www.audiolearn.net/table_of_contents.php?products_id=273
The other COOL thing is you can hear an audio sample of the test prep to see if it appeals to you. You can buy this review and hear the audio sample here on this page – http://www.audiolearn.net/history-audiolearn-p-273.html
2. REA’s AP US test prep is supposed to be good too. The book comes with TESTware software which “Includes CD-ROM software containing 3 of the book’s tests as timed, computerized exams that provide actual exam conditions with controlled timing and question order. Your score and test performance are automatically calculated plus the program provides analysis of your performance with suggestions for further study. ” The pro is this is definitely more official and I expect it will be more comprehensive. You can buy it used for $8.69 or new for $90.81 on Amazon. (http://www.amazon.com/REAs-History-Test-TESTware-Software/dp/0878913327) REMEMBER, if you buy it USED and the seller does not mention whether it has the CD in the description, then message the seller and ask if it does have it before buying it!!!
Also, check out www.scribd.com . Lots of students post their reviews/outlines/study guides for all subjects. They have some good stuff for AP classes.
Hope this helps! Good luck to you and your daughter! PM if you have questions.
