    Perfect Study Tool!

    This book is fantastic review for the Advanced Placement World History exam. Not only is it review, it can also be used throughout the AP class. It features six units with individual chapters in each unit. At the end of each unit there are review questions, which create great study tools for the AP exam at the end of the course. The 2 model tests at the conclusion of the book allow the reader to prepare for the real exam. It is very helpful and will make preparations for the AP exam easier!
