Everything on the quizzes are not necessarily reviewed in class, but it is in the chapter reading homework. The class itself, apush, is super easy. Its very important though that you keep up with it and spread out the reading homework or you will be stuck playing catch up all year like me. Mr Cook is super nice and pretty flexible and he gives you up to a week after the due dates to get chapter homework turned in. I felt very prepared for the AP test, we did saq's throughout the year and i feel confident on how i did on the ap test. he goes over everything and he has a sense of humor. We only spend like 10 seconds per topic and like 2 days on the whole civil war for ex, and then there are questions about it on the tests and saqs, but thats not his fault its an ap class and we don't have much time to go over eveything in detail. But yeah, just take notes, i would recomment making a google doc to put all your notes for the unit you are on it makes it much easier to find your notes in one place when you need info for saq study guides. Personally i don't like to take notes on paper in this class because everything goes by so fast so you don't have time to write everything, plus if you write it on a doc you can ctrl f and find things you need way faster 10/10 recommend. Make headings and subheadings on notes it will make your life so much easier, bullet points, don't just write what mr cook has on slides because all slides are on schoology anyways. Write what he is saying because the slides alone give you no useful information.

-ask questions -do the hw (obvs b ready to do a consistently large amount of weekly notes if you’re in push or euro)

pay attention

Just do well in the quizzes. Homework was easy though
