Review by Victoria for AP European History w/ CD-ROM (REA) (REA Test Preps)
Rating:
I was tempted to buy this book really because of my ambitions for a 5 on the Euro exam.
This book is in fact filled mainly with useless European History you would have no need for on the real exam.
Which brings me to the next issue. The practice exams were unrealistic. Two of them included DBQs of purely difficult political cartoons. The real exam would have different sources. For the tests that had written documents, the documents were enormous and overwhelmingly long. In the real exam the documents would be brief and a lot easier to interpret. While some may argue that it may be better to be prepared for a harder exam when in reality the real exam is a lot easier, the rest of the book was of little help.
The historical content was disorganized. Dates and time periods were out of order and difficult to organize. It was all over the place.
I would definitely suggest obtaining a different prep book for the exam. I seriously set aside a month to try and digest this book. It was not enough. My textbook was actually of more help. To try and review from this book would only mean further confusion and consequently losing valuable time.
