These steps are designed to provide you with vital skills and strategies and the practice that can lead you to that perfect 5. Here are the five steps. Step 1: Set Up Your Study Program In this step you’ll read a brief overview of the AP World History: Modern exam, including an outline of topics and the approximate percentage of the exam that will test knowledge of each topic. You’ll learn: • Background information about the AP exam • Reasons for taking the exam • What to bring to the exam • Other tips to prepare you for the exam • How to choose the preparation plan that’s right for you • Timetables for three suggested plans Step 2: Determine Your Test Readiness In this step you’ll take a diagnostic exam in AP World History: Modern. This pretest should give you an idea of how prepared you are before beginning your study program. • Go through the diagnostic exam step by step and question by question to build your confidence level. • Review the correct answers and explanations so that you see what you do and do not yet fully understand. Step 3: Develop Strategies for Success In this step you’ll learn strategies that will help you do your best on the exam. These strategies cover all four question types: multiple-choice, document-based, continuity and change-over-time, and comparative. This part of your preparation program will help you learn • how to read multiple-choice questions. • how to answer multiple-choice questions, including whether or not to guess. • how to analyze primary documents, including texts, photographs, political cartoons, maps, and charts. • how to answer the document-based and long essays. • how to respond to the short-answer questions.

This section takes up the bulk of this book. It contains not only summaries of key events and concepts but also vocabulary lists and review questions. The material is organized chronologically. Each unit in this section is followed by a timeline, a list of key comparisons, and a change/ continuity chart. The chart will show you at a glance key events and issues in the major world regions. It will also refresh your memory of changes and continuities within each region during the time covered by the unit. As you review this material, it may be helpful to work with others. Find a study pal or form a small study group, and set a time when you can get together to review. Step 5: Build Your Test-Taking Confidence In this step you’ll complete your preparation by testing yourself on a full-length practice exam modeled after the actual examination. The test is followed by a discussion of the answers. Be aware that this practice exam is not simply a reproduction of questions from actual AP exams, but it mirrors both the material tested and the way in which it is tested. • Try the strategies provided in Chapter 4 of this book for each type of question on the test. • Pair up with another student and read and critique each other’s essays. • Take the time not only to check whether or not your answers are correct but also to read the explanation for the correct answers. By doing this, you will review a broad body of concepts in a shorter period of time. Finally, at the back of this book you’ll find additional resources to aid your preparation. These include the following: • Glossary of terms • Bibliography for further reading • List of websites related to the AP World History: Modern exam • An appendix of selected maps • An appendix of key individuals The Graphics Used in This Book To emphasize particular concepts and strategies, we use several icons throughout this book. An icon in the margin will alert you that you should pay particular attention to the accompanying text. We use these three icons: KEY IDEA The first icon points out a very important concept or fact that you should not pass over. STRATEGY The second icon calls your attention to a strategy that you may want to try. TIP The third icon indicates a tip that you might find useful.

Key Ideas KEY IDEA ✪ Many colleges and universities will give you credit for exam scores of 3 or above. ✪ Multiple-choice questions reflect the amount of course time spent on each of the four AP World History: Modern periods. ✪ The three types of free-response questions are based on the broad course themes and are aligned with course skills. Background Information What Is the Advanced Placement Program? The Advanced Placement (AP) program was begun by the College Board in 1955 to construct standard achievement exams that would allow highly motivated high school students the opportunity to be awarded advanced placement as freshmen in colleges and universities in the United States. Today, there are more than 30 courses and exams with nearly 2 million students taking the annual exams in May. There are numerous AP courses in the social studies beside World History: Modern, including U.S. history, European history, U.S. government, comparative government, macro­ economics, microeconomics, and psychology.

Complete Set Up YoureBook Study Program AP tests are juniors and seniors; however, some schools offer AP courses to freshmen and sophomores, especially in world history. Who Writes the AP World History: Modern Exam? Who Corrects the Exams? Like all AP exams, the World History: Modern exam is written by college and high school instructors of world history. This group is called the AP World History Test Development Committee. The committee constantly evaluates the test, analyzing the test as a whole and on an item-by-item basis. All questions on the World History: Modern exam are fieldtested before they actually appear on an AP exam. A much larger group of college and secondary teachers meets at a central location in early June to correct the exams that were completed by students the previous month. The scoring procedure of each grader (or “reader”) during this session is carefully analyzed to ensure that exams are being evaluated on a fair and consistent basis. How Are Exams Graded? Sometime in July, the grade you receive on your AP exam is reported. You, your high school, and the colleges you listed on your initial application will receive the scores. There are five possible scores that you may receive on your exam: • 5 indicates that you are extremely well qualified. This is the highest possible grade. • 4 indicates that you are well qualified. • 3 indicates that you are qualified. • 2 indicates that you are possibly qualified. • 1 indicates that you are not qualified to receive college credit. Individual colleges and universities differ in their acceptance of AP exam scores. Most will not consider a score below a 3 on any AP exam. Many highly competitive colleges and universities honor only scores of 5 on AP exams. To find out which universities offer credit, and how much for which score, go to the College Board website: https://apstudent. collegeboard.org/creditandplacement. Reasons for Taking the Advanced Placement Exam The higherorder thinking skills that characterize the AP World History: Modern course provide an excellent preparation for college and university studies. —College professor There are several very practical reasons for enrolling in an AP World History: Modern course and taking the AP World History: Modern exam in May. During the application process, colleges look very favorably on students who have challenged themselves by taking Advanced Placement courses. Although few would recommend this, it is possible to take any AP exam without taking a preparatory course for that exam. Most important, most colleges will reward you for doing well on your AP exams. Although the goal of this manual is to help you achieve a 5, if you get a 3 or better on your AP World History: Modern exam, many colleges will either give you actual credit for a required introductory world history course or allow you to receive elective credit. You should definitely check beforehand with the colleges you are interested in to find out their policy on AP scores and credit; they will vary. Taking a year of AP World History: Modern (or any AP) course will be a very exacting and challen­ging experience. If you have the capabilities, allow yourself to be challenged! Many students feel a great personal satisfaction after completing an AP course, regardless of the scores they eventually receive on the actual exam.

The multiple-choice portion is worth 40 percent of the total exam grade, whereas the three essays together count equally for the other 60 percent. Your score on the multiple-choice section is based on the number of questions you answer correctly. There is no “guessing penalty.” No points will be deducted for incorrect answers; unanswered questions will be graded as incorrect answers. Format of the Exam The following table summarizes the format of the AP World History: Modern exam.

Complete Set Up YoureBook Study Program Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQs) KEY IDEA This section consists of 55 questions. Each question has four possible answers. The questions are arranged in sets of two to four questions per set. Each set begins with a written or visual stimulus. You will have 55 minutes to complete the multiple-choice section. Once time is up, you may NOT return to this section, so be sure to answer all questions during the 55 minutes allowed for this section. Short-Answer Questions (SAQs) The AP exam contains four short-answer questions: you will answer questions 1 and 2, and then choose between questions 3 and 4. Each short-answer question will have Parts A, B, and C. All questions, regardless of the number of parts, are worth the same number of points. The first two SAQs will have prompts using historical texts, images, or data that require interpretation and analysis. The first SAQ will be based on a primary source and the second will be based on a secondary source. The last two SAQs will not contain sources, but will be traditional questions. You will have 40 minutes to complete the SAQ section of the exam. Long-Essay Question (LEQ) KEY IDEA During the remaining 100 minutes of the test you will be asked to write two essays: a document-based question (DBQ) and a long-essay question. The essays will be based on the broad themes that form the background of the AP World History: Modern course. According to the College Board description of the AP World History: Modern course, these themes include: • Human-environmental interaction • Disease and its effects on population • Migration • Settlement patterns • Technology • Cultural development and interaction • Religions, belief systems, and philosophies • The arts and architecture • State-building, expansion, and conflict (governance) • Political structures and forms of government • Empires • Nations and nationalism • Revolts and revolutions • Regional, transregional, and global organizations and structures • Creation, growth, and interaction of economic systems • Agriculture and pastoralism • Trade and commerce • Labor systems • Industrialization • Capitalism and socialism • Development and change of social structures • Gender roles • Family and kinship relations • Race and ethnicity • Social and economic class structures • Technology and innovation Get Complete eBook Download By email at student.support@hotmail.com 01_Bartolini_Ch01.indd 6 16/05/23 2:37 PM Get Complete eBook Download email at student.support@hotmail.com What You Need toBy Know About the AP World History: Modern Exam ❮ 7 STRATEGY Also essential to success on the essays is the ability to visualize global patterns and the reactions of societies to global processes.
