FIVE

My daughter read this book before her exam and scored a 5. Nuff said.

How to Cram

I loved this book. I started kindof looking over my world history stuff about three weeks before the exam but I wasn't putting much effort into it. I took a practice test in the Princeton Review and didn't do very well. It made me discouraged and I gave up on studying. Then the day before the test I started freaking out realizing I wasn't ready for the exam. I hadn't really looked through the Kaplan book but I knew it had the quizzes at the end of each time period. Those little quizzes really helped me. Those little bits of information gave everything clarity and a point from which to connect things. My suggestion is to start looking through the Princeton Review (highlighting and writing notes) about a month before the test, take the Kaplan quizzes, read the Kaplan sample essays (a really good part of the book), then take the Princeton practice tests which were more accurate than Kaplan's.
