ok so tomarrow I have to take a huge exam. It is an advanced placement exam (I don't know if they have this outside U.S.) and its the first one I have ever taken. there is no pass or fail but it ranks you if you are qualified for college credit for the class

the subject is world history 8000 B.C.E - present

i honestly have no idea what im looking for, but maybe someone on here has taken a similiar test before and can offer some experience

if you've studied you just need to be calm and confident. the worst thing you can do is worry and not get a lot of sleep.

good luck and i'm sure you'll do fine! ^_^

Important events as history tends to see:

Egyptians and pryamids
Alexander the great raping persia
Rise of rome
Rise of Christianity
Rome splitting in 2
Huns coming
Rome falling to barbarians
Byzantine survives and tries to recreate west rome but fails
Islam is founded in Saudi arbia
Islam spreads across North Africa and middle east
Islam moves into spain
Charles martel (the hammer) fights and stops the Arabs between spain and France
Charlemange unites most of Europe
Charlenmange is named the ruler of the Holy roman empire
CHarlemange takes over most of Europe
Charlemange dies and louie the pious takes over and spreads education and knowledge across europe
Louie the Pious dies and his 3 sons split Europe into 3 (France, Italy, and Germany are important ones)
Those sons fight among one another and Europe is divided into smaller and smaller counties.
Ottoman Empire rises
France is formed

<_<;; Thats enough I am bored and don't want to write entire history of Europe. You should remember most of the rest off the top of your head.

Also In China they had many wars over the same thing time and time again.

Good for you. Also, just be positive about the results and don't worry about it so much as it just might end up affecting you mentally and physically.

i have a same exam next year :(

now that I did take the exam focus more on time and not the questions.

you have 130 minutes to write three essays and I only finished the DBQ (the most difficult one) in 80 and wrote about 4 pages on it. so pace yourself right unlike how i did:)

we have 240 minutes , and it includes 10 subjects , actually the result of this exam gives you the permission to enter to the university ( education in university is free here so this exam is hard as hell to choose the best )
