AP World History: Modern is NOT easy! Congrats for taking it anyway though! However, it's not THAT hard. Always do the homework on time. It can impact your grade by a lot. ALWAYS READ THE TEXTBOOK PAGES THAT YOU ARE ASSIGNED!! If you fall behind and have a test the next day that you never tried reading the materials for, that's a guaranteed F. Trust me, it's terrible. ESPECIALLY for DBQs because then you can use extra information in the book as contextualization, analysis, and outside sources for the almighty AP Test's DBQ. If you put in the work, you can most definitely finish strong with a B or even an A. Good luck! Don't forget to have fun!

Mr. Brosnahan is literally SO helpful! He's always there to help and will answer tons of your questions. Just the way he speaks about his lessons keeps you engaged. You can tell how invested he is in his job and how badly he wants to see his students succeed. Be nice to him because it'll only make him a goofier man to be around:) He's also allergic to a lot of things so please refrain from eating much in his class. Chicken fried rice will not be taken lightly! (yes, he's allergic to chicken)
