    What book do you have? I would recommend rereading the book, especially if you have the little paperback with the flag on it. Also, go through in eras and think of possible essay topics and organize them out on notecards or something.

    DBQs are really easy... alot easier than regular essays IMO. Just remember that documents follow facts so don't even look at the docs until after you've set up your outline. Then just cite docs such as [Doc. A] at the end of the sentance that you used information from.

    Just have faith in yourself! And study with other people, talking about it helps.

    I'm taking 3 AP exams that week- US, English, and Spanish so Imma die.

    Yeah, the DBQ questions are actually pretty broad, so if you just go back through the book and are able to name maybe four or five significant events of each time period, you should be fine.


    For me, it was the multiple choice that raped my ass.
