When I was in High School that was the toughest AP exam.

Get the book and work it,

Practice, practice, and then take some more previous years tests.

I think I had to take that one like 4 times. I SUCK at history, probably because I find it absolutely boring! Drives my husband crazy too because he's a total history buff. Good luck on the test. Maybe Raven can find sites for you to take practice tests, she's the googler

Requires Adobe Reader (http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html) (latest version recommended).
The purpose of the AP World History course is to develop greater understanding of the evolution of global processes and contacts, in interaction with different types of human societies. This understanding is advanced through a combination of selective factual knowledge and appropriate analytical skills. The course highlights the nature of changes in international frameworks and their causes and consequences, as well as comparisons among major societies. The course emphasizes relevant factual knowledge deployed in conjunction with leading interpretive issues and types of historical evidence. The course builds on an understanding of cultural, institutional, and technological precedents that, along with geography, set the human stage. Periodization, explicitly discussed, forms an organizing principle for dealing with change and continuity throughout the course. Specific themes provide further organization to the course, along with the consistent attention to contacts among societies that form the core of world history as a field of study.
College world history courses vary considerably in the approach used, the chronological framework chosen, the content covered, the themes selected, and the analytical skills emphasized. The material that follows describes the choices the AP World History Development Committee has made to create the course and exam. These choices themselves are compatible with a variety of college-level curricular approaches.
