Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
As AP tests go, this is one of the easier ones, and thus provides one with the opportunity to earn college credit for relatively inexpensive costs.
Course highlights:
The main highlights of this course were always evident when our class was able to connect historical events to present day happenings. Gleaning an extensive knowledge of the past helps to understand and prepare for the future.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours
Advice for students:
The biggest key to this class is learning how to take notes quickly but effectively and making hundreds of flashcards.
Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
It is a great way to have a thorough understanding of not only what happened in America's history but why it happened, and why the people responded the way they did to what happened.
Course highlights:
The highlights of the course for me were learning the trends of history and how things tend to repeat themselves. It was really great to see the true reasons and intentions behind every great event in America and what they happened and what state they left America in afterwards.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours
Advice for students:
The most important advice I can give is to create a study group as soon as possible. It would be really helpful to create a study guide and a timeline of important events once you finish a time period, these tools will become as useful as currency around the time of the A.P. test. One of the biggest things to remember is you can't always do it all yourself so helping others and having others help you in a study group is not just great but necessary.
Not too easy. Not too difficult.
Course Overview:
I would recommend this class because not only do you haven in depth learning experience about United States history, but you also feel as if you are experiencing it in real life. You can connect to when people felt over fifty years ago.
Course highlights:
My favorite parts of the course would be the timeline that we made. We would use a red string and connects some parts of history to other parts that may have happened in a different time period.
Hours per week:
3-5 hours
Advice for students:
Get ready for a semester full of information as well as surprises. This history class talks about the historic events that you high school teacher never talks about. From the U.S helping out a dictator to conspiracy theories about JFK,Marilyn Monroe, and a mob boss.
