ABOUT THIS BOOK

REA’s AP U.S. History Crash Course is the first book of its kind for the last-minute studier or any AP student who wants a quick refresher on the course. The Crash Course is based upon a careful analysis of the new 2015 AP U.S. History Course Description outline and available official AP test questions.

Written by AP U.S. History experts who have studied the content and format of the revised exam, our easy-to-read format gives students a crash course in the major ideas and events in U.S. history. The targeted review chapters offer students a concise way to learn all the important AP material before the test.

Unlike other test preps, REA’s AP U.S. History Crash Course gives you a review specifically focused on what you really need to study in order to ace the exam. Our review is broken down into specific topics and themes, offering you two ways to study the material—chronologically, or by key themes and facts.

As you’ve probably heard, the APUSH exam has undergone a major shift that, beginning in 2015, places greater emphasis on reasoning and analysis. So it is with this Crash Course, which is designed to give you a critical overview of key events, movements, and individuals contributing to American history. Our handy format makes this the perfect quick-reference companion.

The AP U.S. History Crash Course introduction begins with a discussion of five keys for success and a glossary of 42 AP U.S. History terms you absolutely, positively have to know.

Part Two is composed of review chapters arranged in chronological order. Each chapter presents only the essential information tied to each time period in U.S. History.

Part Three is devoted to key themes in American history, with particular attention focused on African American history, Native American history, and women’s history.

Finally, the Crash Course concludes with chapters that present strategies for successfully answering all the different question types on the exam—everything from the multiple-choice questions to the document-based essay question.

No matter how or when you prepare for the new AP U.S. History exam, REA’s Crash Course will show you how to study efficiently and strategically, so you can boost your score.

To check your test readiness for the revised AP U.S. History exam, either before or after studying this Crash Course, take REA’s FREE online practice exam. To access your practice exam, visit the online REA Study Center at www.rea.com/studycenter and follow the on-screen instructions.

This true-to-format test features automatic scoring, detailed explanations of all answers, and diagnostic score reporting that will help you identify your strengths and weaknesses so you’ll be ready on exam day.

Good luck on your AP U.S. History exam!

Best review book if you're short on time!

Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2016

Verified Purchase

I just found out I got a 5 on the APUSH test and I couldn't be happier! This book was extremely helpful and effective in reviewing right before the test. I only started studying about 4 days before the test, and I read this book straight through once and then reviewed tough parts after that. It helped me a lot. Alone, it isn't detailed enough to get you a five, but it is very helpful and I think it might've made the difference between a 4 and a 5. If you are pressed for time, this is the best APUSH review book, all the other ones are too long and you won't have enough time to read through them. I also loved the format. Definitely add this to you study resources, you won't regret it.

THIS BOOK IS THE GREATEST THING EVER!

Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2016

Verified Purchase

I am currently in love with this book. Somehow it knows exactly what topics are gonna be on tests and quizzes and explains such topics very well. Since it is such a condensed book there's obviously information missing so it's not what a student should rely on 100%. Another thing that annoyed me a little is that it is not in chronological order so it can get confusing if you wanna learn by president (thing I sometimes have to do).

It hits key points without unnecessary background stories. It is concise and highlights the most important information for the test. I recommend getting this book and perhaps another book if you are interested in supplementary background information as well.

It breaks everything down from key terms to content overview to key events and themes to be familiar with for the test and is very portable.

**Update: Used this and the Princeton Review book and got a 5.

This book is great for quick review before the test

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2016

This book is great for quick review before the test. But I wouldn't rely solely on this book if you want to get a 4 or 5. The author of this book has written a more detailed book, "The Insider's Complete Guide to AP US History: The Essential Content." I suggest reading the more detailed book at least once, and then reading this Crash Course as many times as possible before the exam.

Great Review Book! If you're looking to find one, this is perfect!

Just took my AP U.S. History Exam yesterday and I must say this book helped me out so much! Not only does it clearly explain the key events of american history but it also states why they're important as well. It also connects similarities and differences between events. I would highly recommend this review book; I walked into the testing room confident from the knowledge I learned from it!

Not bad

Not bad. It kind of says in the book tho that this is meant to be used at least a month before the exam. Not really a "Crash Course," but its good for review before the test.

Our daughter used this to supplement her studies and got a great score on the AP exam. She is a generally good student, but she said this was a help; also, it was recommended by more than one AP U.S. History teacher we know.

Read through it 2 days before the AP exam, it covers all the important highlights that you need to know for the era. I got a 4 on the AP if you want to use that as a gauge.
