Customer Reviews

Excellent Review Book!

The best review book ever. Got me a 5 on the Ap US History exam! It discusses all the most important parts in U.S. History and its practice tests are great!

REA really is the best test prep for APUSH

literally questions in the practice tests appeared on the real exam. i remember seeing a nit-picky question on authors and themes of an era that i thankfully learned the previous day in REA. the practice tests may be a little bit harder than the actual thing, but extremely close. the reviews on each era is thorough and the practice tests are plenty. the explanations to the answers of the practice tests are also extremely helpful. one tip is to read the explanation of the correct answer after you complete a practice test, regardless of whether you got it right or wrong to guarantee you have your information down cold. i would say invest your apush money in this book only and you're set for the test in may.

Best Review Book For APUSH!

This is the ultimate study book for the AP US History Exam, it has almost everyhting you need and will help you wonderously on the test, even if you only study the night before!

History with Spunk

here's a sentence in the book: Virginians were also angry at Royal Governor Sir William Berkeley, whose high-handed, high-taxing ways they despised and whom they believed was running the colony for the benefit of himself and his circle of cronies. it's nice to know that the writers actually have opinions. this is history that definitely doesn't sound like it was written by robots. and this is coming from someone who hates history a lot... i'm just using it to score high on the SAT US history subject test.

THE ULTIMATE US REVIEW

Thanks to this review book, I ended up with a 5! Our AP teacher called this "the review bible" and used this book constantly in class. It's even good for class tests! My friend was failing those until she started reviewing with this book...and her grade improved significantly. The best part of this book is the tests. They ask questions that are definetly comparable to AP level questions, and the best thing is to ALWAYS read the section that explains to you why you are right or wrong on a question. The sample essays are also very helpful.
