The most boring of all history classes available. Endless notes, lectures, and worksheets all of which consist of 80% governmental acts.Spend hours on work that is only worth a couple points toward your grade but you still do it because youre an AP student.

A 15-essay second semester final.
by Alex April 23, 2005
A course that although it claims to be about the world, is really all about China and Japan. The class is as good as the teachers make it. The test, on the other hand, is about how many essays you can write in the shortest time period.
If you want to do good, study general topics, not fact-for-fact. I did this and got a 5 on the AP exam. You do not need to be a nerd to pass this exam, nor spend all your time studying, i spent 30 mins every few days starting in April.

An amazing class that may steal your soul but is SOOOO worth it because it gives you a perspective on the country unlike anything else.
Oh, and you won't die if your GPA drops a little...don't be stupid and drop it because you are worried about your GPA. After this class you can accomplish anything with ease. No lie.

-A class that you only take solely to boost your GPA, although many people's GPAs decrease substantially
-A class to prepare you for the AP exam that probably 35% of the student population passes in the United States depending on the teacher you have.
-Students copy tidbit information off AP notes without actually retaining any substance because it's boring and putting it eloquently,sucks balls.

Bacon's Rebellion is so enthralling theres a chance that I could potentially joygasm
When in AP Us History I learn information that I am going to use in the real world and the rest of my life.

The most boring class you could ever take in high school. your chances of passing it are next to none. do not take us history if you dont already have a 5.0 gpa from taking all honors classes since your freshman year, you hate studying, and your writing skills suck. You are guaranteed to fail if you cannot write a paper. Even practice DBQ's are impossible to pass. youre not even writing the paper and you cant pass! if you choose apush you are screwed in the ass. boring lectures where you take useless notes because theyre not even on the damn test. you wont pass the test unless you study your stupid ID's. yeah, those things that you write who, what, when, where, why and how for a whopping list of sixty things, which takes you about six hours to get through unless you actually have friends. GOOD LUCK. you wont pass one test unless you actually read the sixteen chapters assigned two days before. GOOD FUCKING LUCK.

{ap us history}
A history class which is aimed for 10th or 11th graders to enhance their knowledge of our nations history and have them become scholars. It is also a good workout carrying the 20 textbooks and thousands of worksheets to class everyday to sit through boring lectures. Each week there is usually one or two tests taken on the main textbook given just to fuck over your grade, unless you find it worthwhile to study for 16 hours the night before. Every once in a while, you will be forced to write a dumb essay or DBQ over stupid topics from the past that is not really necessary to know. At the end of the year there is an AP exam which you can earn college credit on. That is the only reason why students take this class. Regular days are easy as you sit in a desk with a notebook listening about elections of the past and virtually everything to know about everything and everyone. Students are usually daydreaming at this time. Also, taking notes is made more boring due to the fact that you are learning things you take a test on 2 weeks prior to learning it. What is the point of taking a chapter 26 test when in class you are learning about chapter 21, which can be confusing. Only take ap us history if you want college credit, are a robot, or enjoy studying like a buckwild hog.
