Book Reviews of Kaplan AP U.S. History, 2008 Edition (Kaplan Ap U S History)
Book Review: Only One Complaint...
Summary: 4 Stars
This book was extremely helpful in preparing for the AP US History exam - I highly recommend it! I found during my review sessions that the Kaplan book did a much better job of condensing the huge amount of information required for the test than other test prep brands (which my friends had). The information presented was easy to understand, concise, and key terms were set in bold for easy skimming and review. I found the chapter and unit reviews especially helpful because they organized key terms. Going through and describing each key term aloud really helped me with memorization.
My only complaint was the lack of an index. There were several occasions when I would want to find a term quickly in the book but would be unable to locate it in the pages and pages of review sections.
I definitely feel that this book helped me to prepare for the AP exam and I highly recommend it to anyone facing the same stressful May experience. Good luck!
