Short for AP US History. An Advanced Placement class in which the history of the US is studied. Get ready for very little sleep, suicidal thoughts, and no social life. A class meant to be taken for Juniors but if you came from ISB or Summa then you can take it AS A FRESHMEN.

A highly ritualized form of suicide usually affecting high school juniors. APUSH kills by forcing so many facts, names, and dates into a person's head that it actually explodes.
Sometimes, an APUSH fails to kill the person and instead kills their GPA, leaving them untouchable to all colleges (even those that advertise on TV).

APUSH is literally the hardest, worst class you will ever take. my teacher sucked and we were far behind! Passing the exam is hard! You have 80 minutes to answer tons of questions! (about 36 seconds per question!!) and two free response essays and a DBQ. Too many chapters, too much homework, too many tests, and usually TERRIBLE teachers are AP teachers. Goodluck to anyone who takes it! AHHHH It is so stressfullllllllllll!

US History AP.
The Advanced Placement version of the 11th grade history class. Gives the student college credits if s/he scores well on the AP history test at the end of the year.

AP US History aka: the second circle of hell.

Usually a class for Juniors, but if you go to a school where you have to take the government HSA in 11th grade, (NORTHERN HIGH SCHOOL) you take it as a sophmore.

Acronym for Advanced Placement United States History.
Offered to high school juniors who have potential to score well on the May exam.
Can cause some students massive stress while others excel in the subject thanks to great teaching.
Not quite as interesting as AP European History, but then again not as difficult.
