Do you have any advice that can help with the writing parts of the AP U.S. History Exam?
Hey, thanks for asking but not only am I not American, but I’ve never taken history for my HSC/Prelims (I think that’s equivalent to Senior/Junior year), so I couldn’t give you any guarantee that my advice would be any good. Still, I didn’t want to just not give an answer at all, so I’ve curated a bunch of really informative articles into a masterpost for you :)
Firstly, read the marking criteria carefully, and look at sample essays to get an idea of the structure
