Scoring high on the AP U.S. Government & Politics Exam is very different from earning straight A’s in school. We don’t try to teach you everything there is to know about government—only the strategies and information you’ll need to get your highest score. In Cracking the AP U.S. Government & Politics Exam, we’ll teach you how to: use our preparation strategies and test-taking techniques to raise your score ; focus on the topics most likely to appear on the test and ; test your knowledge with review questions for each government and politics topic covered. This book includes 2 full-length practice AP U.S. Government & Politics tests. All of our practice questions are just like those you’ll see on the actual exam, and we explain how to answer every question.
