The class is easy for the most part but she just makes it more hard than it should

Read the AMSCO book, annotate it, do whatever it takes to memorize the content! She is an effective teacher but the tests are still hard, and you must study a lot to do well. For a lot of people coming out of AP world, APUSH is a difficult adjustment because the standards are a whole lot higher. That said, by the midpoint of the first semester you should get the hang of the class, and, although it will not get "easier, " you will be better able to handle it. Beware the first essay--many people do poorly because they aren't ready for how Ms Wilson grades. But if you study and learn how to answer the essay prompts (specifically looking at the DBQ), you will get a 5 on the AP exam.

Beautiful and lectures like she is telling a story. Also has nice fashion. Hard grader but it prepares you well for the AP exam.
