What really matters on the AP Euro Exam

What really matters on the AP Euro Exam

In this series by Tony Maccarella, author of Mastering the Essay for AP World and AP European History, Tony answers questions sent in to him on Reddit. The first question was, "What really matters on the AP Euro exam?"

With the recent course and exam redesigns for all 3 of the AP history courses, skills-related guidance, like the advice Tony shares in this series, applies equally to any of the 3 courses. They each now share the same exam and exam question formats, the same rubrics, and the same historical thinking skills. So AP World and AP U.S. History students can benefit from this series, as well.

If you have any AP history questions of your own that you'd like to see Tony answer, feel free to send them to us at hello@sherpalearning.com.
