Ok y'all but like I’m not even kidding about this I read this post yesterday and today I got an email from the peeps at hamilton and I won the lotto gor $10 tickets and I would like to give all my thanks to the internet’s favorite fish, Goldie Gurston, for making this possible because I totally believe they did this with their amazing gay powers

[thuriweaver]

So I know this is likely a coincidence…but I reblogged this and just now discovered I’ve been given a $150 amazon gift card as a bonus at work. So thank you, fish!

apush tips

throughout the year

remember that apush is more detail oriented than other ap histories

take really good notes

try to recognize common themes and major turning points

practice writing essays/dbqs/short answers a lot (your teacher should take care of this in class hopefully)

crash course it out

review

start studying two-ish months before the exam (if your class is on track, you should start studying when the teacher starts reviewing)

review in reverse so that you can better understand historical causality and the last thing you study will be what you learned in august/september

buy a box of flashcards (barron or 5 steps) 

do lots of practice tests, at least one of which should be done in a realistic setting (at a desk, in the morning, timed, all parts of the test)

i really love the ap us history crash course book by larry krieger to read the last couple days before the exam because it’s got the simplified information and lots of helpful hints

don’t study the night before the exam – relax

general

know your periods (reconstruction, great depression, gilded age, etc)

change and continuity over time!!! (slavery >> civil rights // republican motherhood >> 1970s women’s lib)

don’t memorize every battle of every war just know really important ones/turning points

please please please use synthesis when writing essays it’s one sentence worth a full point seriously even if you think it’s a terrible synthesis WRITE IT DOWN

while on the topic of writing, learn how to write an apush-specific thesis it is the foundation for your entire essay/dbq

don’t get too scared of dbqs they literally do half the work for you all you have to do is line up the documents and add a bit of background information/a few examples

you can do this. study, do the work, and breathe. it’s all going to turn out fine.

Do you have any advice that can help with the writing parts of the AP U.S. History Exam?

Hey, thanks for asking but not only am I not American, but I’ve never taken history for my HSC/Prelims (I think that’s equivalent to Senior/Junior year), so I couldn’t give you any guarantee that my advice would be any good. Still, I didn’t want to just not give an answer at all, so I’ve curated a bunch of really informative articles into a masterpost for you :)

Firstly, read the marking criteria carefully, and look at sample essays to get an idea of the structure

Examiner’s marking criteria alongside actual scanned essays from previous students

[id-rather-be-studying]

It’s that time of year again!

Sorry for my absence on this blog lately! Life has just been kicking my butt. However, since the fall semester has just ended, I am now uploading all of my notes for anyone who needs them! Most of these notes are terms and other info that is necessary no matter where you take these classes.

US History I (HIST2111): Terms

US History I (HIST2111): Notes (There are A LOT of these notes as my professor lectured a bunch. Useful for those in APUSH as well as college US History.)

Algebra II: Notes/Terms/Examples

Physics: Notes/Terms (The first few pages are note sheets I created as an easy reference when studying for exams. Personally, I think they’re pretty helpful.)

I’m also reuploading my AP World History notes from last year, as I don’t think many of you saw them the first time I uploaded.

I have some notes from ENGL1101 too, but they are digital notes from Blackboard so I don’t feel comfortable sharing them openly online without permission from my professor. However, I would be happy to share them with anyone who messaged me!

I really hope my notes can help someone! Feel free to message me with any questions about my notes/my study style/literally anything, and also let me know if there are any issues in viewing these documents! 

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!!

Tip for anxiety

Pretend the whole exam is a BuzzFeed quiz. You know one of those ones that’s like, “Can you get more than 50% right on this college Physics class test.”

[yourneighbourhoodsapist]

[insomniac-arrest]

from someone who got a 5 on the APUSH exam

Early American history: fuckin British

Later American history: fuckin industrialization

Ongoing themes: Goddammit racism, “let’s produce!” *economic crisis* “who’s fault is this?”, *existential crisis over the constitution*, *narrowing eyes* how much do we actually trust the government
