For AP World, I would recommend making a study plan. This class is a lot of work and notes and is easy to fall behind. For tests, there is a mix of MCQ, SAQ, LEQ, and DBQ ( info available on college board website). This course is good for people who enjoy learning about history and/or for people who want to experience the level of notes taken in college. I would also recommend using outside recourses to help you because Ms. Avar instructs this class on a more independent bases to prepare is for college. Have fun! :)))

She gives access to information and other sources, use them! KA generally has better information than the chapter outlines, but don't wait till the last minute to do them, I'd say finish them three days before they are due at latest. Make sure you have your supplies!!!! She is a really sweet person but I'd suggest asking outside sources if you have any questions about a certain part of history.
