For a year of constant studying the only thing in my way of passing is my constant stupidity. But this book studied the night before the exam has moved my 2 up to a 3(hopefully) so thank you. Also I will update rating based on my ap score.

FABULOUS review for the AP test. Though, it was missing some stuff that appeared on the AP test. Then again, I didn't remember reading anything about those in my US History Textbook either.

I think this was one of the best crash course review books I've seen. They outlined the major points and even gave a few points that you should know for the test. I read this book the day before my AP exam and I felt much more confident. While taking the test, most of their small blurbs were actually useful since they ended up on the test.
I wouldn't substitute this book for a full review of US history, but if you are running out of time, or if you need a quick refresher the day before the test, I would definitely pick it up. It helped me get my 5 on the AP test.

Whether or not I pass the A.P. test tomorrow, at least I finished this whole book and improved my historical knowledge:)
