I got an A in that class, but only because my teacher raised our letter grades by 10% for passing the exam. Otherwise Id have gotten a high B. There are websites where you can study for your tests and stuff, those helped me alot.

One of the easiest AP's I've taken. I don't know how people didn't receive A's. Never read a single page of the book and didn't start paying attention until the Reconstruction Era.

Take that back, it was more towards the Gilded Age that I started to pay attention.

Haha it's not just memorizing terms. It's that and coupling themes together and seeing how they relate. I guess the difficulty of the class depends on the teacher. And whether your's is 1 or 2 years.

4 on the Test, B in the class. Took it sophmore year and my teacher was a BOSS. His name is Mr. Frank, straight up called him Frank the Tank all year. Best class I have ever taken.

No, it's memorizing terms and making associations. It's not as if high school history classes require that much critical thinking.

I have a 103 in the class because we took a test online that he gave us the answers too and I memorized them. But now everytime I get like a b on homework the grade goes down like 4 percent. And we just learned about Gettysburg!

I'd say it's memorizing terms, people, and events. But yeah, if you memorize it it's not tough.
