>> Valuable resource
I purchased these cards for my daughter when she was taking AP US History 2 years ago and now my son is taking the same course Both of my kids use these as one of their primary study guides My daughter got a 5 on her AP exam and B / A during her AP US History class her Jr year of high school My son just got a B on his AP US History mid term for his class as well as his buddy who borrowed the cards to study with Needless to say these cards are quite helpful My only complaint is that they aren t numbered so keeping them in order can be a bit tricky if you aren t meticulous with them Put the card after it sideways always and it will be fine
>> An Asset to Review for APUSH Coursework and Testing
My daughter s Advanced Placement U S History APUSH teacher recommended these cards as a study aid In the first three weeks they already showed their value My daughter had a unit test and was the only student in the class to have purchased these cards The teacher in preparing the students for studying asked if anyone had purchased the cards To those students she recommended the relevant numbered cards for study There were questions on the test that my daughter knew as a direct result of having reviewed with these cards We are very pleased with our purchase and would recommend these review cards to anyone taking Advanced Placement U S History APUSH
Also this item was 8 cheaper at Amazon com vs the local chain bookstore
>> Great teaching tool
Great way to get a lot of information quickly There is the ability to categorize the set with handy symbols on the front of each card This makes it really nice for teaching and learning themes not simply memorizing the information which is helpful for the essay and DBQ portion of the A P exam The cards can also be used in the classroom for review I have handed out stacks of cards and had students make flow charts for the information so they understand the cause and effect for a series of events I would suggest this be one of a few review tools and not used alone because it will be harder for students to understand connections of events in this format
