AP WORLD HISTORY EXAM STUDY SESSIONS
Dear AP World History Students,
The Advanced Placement World History exam will be given on Thursday, May 12th. To prepare for this challenging
test, Mr. Millhouse, Ms. Bouas, and Ms. Gray are offering study sessions to all former and present AP World
History students. While these sessions are optional, it is expected that ANY student who signs up for the exam
attend as many as possible. Not attending the sessions will most likely result in a lower test score!
Sessions will be interactive with the opportunity to ask questions and review valuable material. Bring your iPad and
other academic resources to each session. There will be two sessions for each topic listed below. The sessions will
be offered in the morning and after school. After school classes (PM) will be from 3:45 – 4:45 and morning classes
(AM) will be from 7:05 – 8:05.
Study materials, which will supplement but not replace the study sessions or practice test, are available from
either teacher. Each teacher has flashcards, practice tests, and study books, etc. The course description with what
to know and sample questions can be found

The practice test will be held from 9-12 on Saturday, April 30. It is critical that students attend and take the session
seriously. Understanding the exam process is very helpful. Students will take an actual released exam, write
practice essays, and receive information on how the exam is scored. Bring a pencil, a pen, and notebook paper to
the practice test.
Mr. Millhouse, Ms. Bouas, and Ms. Gray want you to know that we will help you every step of the way, and we
hope that you will review with us, as well as study on your own.
