r/APHumanGeography

I have not been that focused at class and there's only 9 days left for the exam, is buying heimler's course and then studying it + the vocab enough to get 5 on the ap exam?

Also are there any tips to getter better at frq and connecting them to real world answers?

I'm still soooo confused about the difference between these two concepts. How would you guys explain it if you had an FRQ asking for an explanation of each?

Any free mock testing sites please? I have NOT been studying can anymore please tell me if they haven't been either ill at least feel a little better 😭😭 also drop the free testing site if anyone knows id rlly appreciate that tysm

Im self studying for my APs, and have absolutely no help irl. I had to figure everything out online since APs r not really known in my country.

I had taken APWH and APHUG but with school i already have a lot of complicated subjects to study for, along with this I am pretty active with my sports, so I initially told myself id study in December.

To this day ive only done a few units and I have absolutely no time to study. I have tried making time but its just not working , im already drowning in assignments from school.

This is also my final year of school, should I drop my APs or will I regret this?

Hi guys, so this ap is honestly hard for me, like ap world is different, but for aphug you need some sorts of common sense. I’ve been studying all the terms, however, whenever it comes to any analyzing or real world application, I always ended up getting them wrong. I genuinely don’t know what else I could do to improve my skill. My goal is to get a 4, but the score on my practice exam from previously year was a 55%(which is like a 3? or lower, not sure)

So to be honest, it's mostly my fault, but lately, atleast the past 3 weeks, I been sort of procrastinating, and my grade in the class is still surprising like a 97 or 98, but ngl my teacher is generous with dropping assignments/tests/quizzes I got a bad score on for a good grade I got, like the lowest grade I got once was a 57, and of course it happened because I didn't study. But she also assigns a lot, and i mean a lot of homework, like she assigned 2 huge review packets this week, with a combined total of like 300 questions, though tbf, one of them, that has 200 questions, is a grand review that we do together in class, so I guess it isn't so bad. Anyway, that hasn't happened since like november or smth, and so far, my lowest grade has been on quizzes/tests, which is like 70s and 80s. Assigns pop quizzes and stuff, but ye.

Sorry I got off topic, but ye just wanted to provide context that I am doing pretty well in the class, but I feel like I'm going to bomb the exam. The vocab part is actually not that bad, and I have Anki as my trusty tool so that's good. But I always struggle with the application and real world example, and I saw u/EPICNESS2500's pinned post on how that's vital for the example. Well, how can I get good at this? Additionally, I struggle with the task verbs, like I still don't quite understand the difference between describe and explain, as well as explain to the degree of, explain how, explain why, identify, and compare. Like I sort of understand what they're asking, but don't know how to answer. Can you guys provide examples or help on such questions? Idk if there's anything else I need to have locked in for the exam, but yeah. I'm worried, as the exam is in less than 2 weeks, and we just started reviewing everything for the exam this week, as we had finished unit 7 last week. Just want that 5, or even a perfect score. Also, especially for the FRQs, I want to try being concise, as being concise helps you answer quicker and helps you be able to finish the exam on time, and my teacher said she knew a student who apparently got a perfect score on the FRQs with less than 20 words, like it's insane

Also any resources to help make sure I get a 5/perfect score? My teacher has let us use AMSCO, but I been using Princeton Review. How can I use them correctly, because I feel like I am not quite using them correctly, because sometimes I choose to read AMSCO, and other times I choose to read Princeton Review. any anki decks also? quizlet decks is great too, as I can just easily convert them into Anki Decks through a add-on

Sorry if this is a lot lol.

I was just wondering what everyone is suspecting as possible FRQ topics for this year may be (for fun lol, obviously its all a mystery). Like, in terms of current events, maybe something related to the Suez Canal/chokepoints?

Feel free to use if you want, hope it helps. Just learned "vibe coding" so excuse any tech issues. Doesn't look good on mobile yet. Lots of good resources built of the historical development from College Board on it. Happy studying!
