PREVIEW: YOUR KNOWLEDGE, YOUR
EXPECTATIONS
Your route to a high score on the AP European History
Exam depends a lot on how you plan to use this book. Start
thinking about your plan by responding to the following
questions.
1. What is your level of confidence about your knowledge
of the content tested by the AP European History Exam?
A. Very confident—I know it all
B. I’m pretty confident, but there are topics for which I
could use help
C. Not confident—I need quite a bit of support
D. I’m not sure
2. If you have a goal score in mind, choose your goal score
for the AP European
History Exam.
5 4 3 2 1 I’m not sure yet
3. What do you expect to learn from this book? Choose all
that apply to you.
A. A general overview of the test and what to expect
B. Strategies for how to approach the test
C. The content tested by this exam
D. I’m not sure yet
YOUR GUIDE TO USING THIS BOOK
This book is organized to provide as much—or as little—
support as you need, so you can use it in whatever way will

Loading page 17...

be most helpful to improving your score on the AP
European History Exam.
The remainder of Part I will provide guidance on how
to use this book and help you determine your strengths
and weaknesses.
Part II of this book contains Practice Test 1, its
Diagnostic Answer Key, its answers and explanations,
and a scoring guide. (Bubble sheets are available
online.) We strongly recommend that you take this test
before going any further in order to realistically
determine:
your starting point right now
which question types you’re ready for and which you
might need to practice
which content topics you are familiar with and which
you should carefully review
Once you have nailed down your strengths and
weaknesses with regard to this exam, you can focus
your test preparation, build a study plan, and be
efficient with your time. Our Diagnostic Answer Key will
assist you with this process.
Part III of this book will:
provide information about the structure, scoring,
and content of the AP European History Exam
help you to make a study plan
point you toward additional resources
Part IV of this book will explore various strategies:
how to attack multiple-choice questions

Loading page 18...

how to write effective essays for document-based
(DBQs) and thematic essay questions
how to manage your time to maximize the number of
points available to you
Part V of this book covers the content you need for the
AP European History Exam.
Part VI of this book contains Practice Tests 2, 3, and 4,
along with their answers and explanations. (Bubble
sheets are available online.) If you skipped Practice Test
1, we recommend that you take the tests (with at least a
day or two between them) so that you can compare your
progress from one to the next. Additionally, this will
help to identify any external issues. If you get a certain
type of question wrong each time, you probably need to
review it. If you get it wrong only once, you may have
run out of time or been distracted by something. In
either case, this will allow you to focus on the factors
that caused the discrepancy in scores and to be as
prepared as possible on the day of the test.
You may choose to use some parts of this book over others,
or you may work through the entire book. Your approach
will depend on your needs and how much time you have.
Let’s now look at how to make this determination.

and matching exercises.
HOW TO BEGIN
1. Take Practice Test 1
Before you can decide how to use this book, you need
to take a practice test. Doing so will give you insight
into your strengths and weaknesses, and the test will
also help you make an effective study plan. If you’re
feeling test-phobic, remind yourself that a practice test
is a tool for diagnosing yourself—it’s not how well you
do that matters but how you use information gleaned
from your performance to guide your preparation.
So, before you read further, take Practice Test 1
starting at this page of this book. Be sure to do so in
one sitting, following the instructions that appear
before the test.
2. Check Your Answers
Using the Diagnostic Answer Key on this page, follow
our three-step process to identify your strengths and
weaknesses with regard to the tested topics. This will
help you determine which content review chapters to
prioritize when studying this book. Don’t worry about

Loading page 20...

the explanations for now, and don’t worry about why
you missed questions. We’ll get to that soon.
3. Reflect on the Test
After you take your first test, respond to the following
questions:
How much time did you spend on the multiple-
choice questions?
How much time did you spend on each essay?
How many multiple-choice questions did you miss?
Do you feel you had the knowledge to address the
subject matter of the short-answer questions and
essays?
Do you feel you wrote well-organized, thoughtful
short-answer responses and essays?
4. Read Part III of this Book and Complete the Self-
Evaluation
Part III will provide information on how the test is
structured and scored. It will also set out areas of
content that are tested.
As you read Part III, reevaluate your answers to the
questions above. At the end of Part III, you will revisit
and refine the questions you answered above. You will
then be able to make a study plan, based on your needs
and time available, that will allow you to use this book
most effectively.
5. Engage with Parts IV and V as Needed
Notice the word engage. You’ll get more out of this
book if you use it intentionally than if you read it

Loading page 21...

passively, hoping for an improved score through
osmosis.
Strategy chapters in Part IV will help you think about
your approach to the question types on this exam. This
part opens with a reminder to think about how you
approach questions now and then closes with a
reflection section asking you to think about
how/whether you will change your approach in the
future.
Content chapters in Part V are designed to provide a
review of the content tested on the AP European
History Exam, including the level of detail you need to
know and how the content is tested. You will have the
opportunity to assess your mastery of the content of
each chapter through test-appropriate questions.
6. Take Practice Tests 2–6 and Assess Your
Performance
Once you feel you have developed the strategies you
need and gained the knowledge you lacked, you should
take Practice Test 2, which starts at this page of this
book. You should do so in one sitting, following the
instructions at the beginning of the test.
When you have taken the test, check your answers to
the multiple-choice sections. See if a teacher will read
your essays and provide feedback.
Once you have checked your answers, reflect on what
areas you still need to work on and revisit the chapters
in this book that address those deficiencies. Once you
feel confident, take Practice Test 3, and repeat the
process. Take Practice Test 4, and repeat the process
again. Download Practice Tests 5 and 6 from your

Loading page 22...

Student Tools, and keep it going. Through this type of
reflection and engagement, you will continue to
improve.
7. Keep Working
As we’ll discuss in Part III, there are other resources
available to you, including a wealth of information at
AP Students, which is the AP section of the College
Board’s website. You can continue to explore areas
that can stand improvement and engage in those areas
right up to the day of the test. For updates and
information on the AP European History Exam, as well
as free practice, check out its home page:
