Summary

The Princeton Review realizes that acing the AP U.S. Government exam is very different from getting straight As in school. The Princeton Review doesn't try to teach students everything there is to know about the U.S. Government--only the techniques they'll need to score higher on the exam. There's a big difference. InCracking the AP U.S Government, TPR will teach test takers how to think like the test makers and Eliminate answer choices that look right but are planted to fool test takers Score higher on the multiple-choice section by using the chronological arrangement of questions as clues Crack the essay section by knowing the right way to organize the answers Earn more points by reviewing the government concepts most likely to be tested This book includes 2 full-length, simulated AP U.S. Government exams. All of The Princeton Review practice test questions are like the ones test takers will see on the actual exam, and every solution is fully explained.
