When you sit down to study for your AP exams, you need to know that you don't have to know EVERYTHING from your class. Let me tell you what you should remember and what you should forget. - Развлечения
I’m actually grateful for this because since it takes me longer to understand documents, I can’t ever finish my practice dbqs in class
i just took one today 😭😭i can’t understand docs
You two just need to adapt to what’s most important in the document. The context and sourcing is #1 (under the stimulus) then skim through the text with a highlighter or pen for key phrases that relate to the question, and if that doesn’t help just read through the entire thing (try not to get to this point😂)
The DBQ is hard because old English is so hard to understand qwq
For the MCQ my teacher taught us to just read the blurb instead of reading the passage, but if you don't understand the blurb, then she said to only read the first and last sentence of the passage and you should have a good idea.
What’s helpful for me is to try to identify the main claim of the stimulus. Why did this author write the document? Are they complaining about something or are they rejoicing over something? This is important because you have to know if the author is showing a “positive” attitude or they have a “negative” attitude and they will usually have a central claim.
Not to mention that in a DBQ essay, you need the author’s POV stated too.
Thank you SO much Heimler! This is one of the main things I struggle with on my FRQs, the documents are always so dang confusing to me!
i’m literally watching this in the testing room rn, good luck everyone !
Thanks! This really helps with those tough questions/documents👍
This was very helpful! My AP world teacher actually gave us the 2019 AP world DBQ for review today!
hey heimler can u do the griddy pls

Heimler my test is tomorrow, this just saved my day!!!
Thank you this is very helpful!
Your videos actually make me confident that I'll pass. Cheers!
@heimlershistory we need a video on APUSH presidents and what they did! Thanks for all the prep!!
This is so smart, you are amazing!
Bought your Packet and got a 91 on my last unit test 💪
It's funny you mentioned that document with the inlaid box for Portuguese maritime trade, I'm taking AP World this year and last semester we did a mock DBQ which was that prompt and that was the source I didn't use of the 7 since I couldn't figure out how to connect it, seems simple now that you explained it though
daddy heimy to the rescue
thank you so much
This is exactly what I did on the finals... It was a speech that I had no idea what it was talking about, but I remembered the name of the guy who did it and make stuff up on the spot ku
This was SO helpful! Thank you for all of your videos! I
have a question about writing DBQs and LEQs. Do you have to add specific dates while you're writing? For example if I was writing about the Proclamation of 1963 I would probably need to know that date, but do you have to specifically date other events such as the Boston Massacre?
I would assume it depends really how much the date holds importance to the topic but i just give the general ideas and my teacher accepts it as long as it is really connecting to what i am talking about.. hope that helps a little?
The test isn't about memorizing dates, it's about using historical knowledge to support ideas and arguments. You'll be fine if you don't give an exact date (as long as the words around the event make sense)
Whats the best way to practice MCQ's and how do I read the passages without wasting time? love your videos btw!!! ❤
first read the source of the document this normally tells you which era you are in, if you have a good grasp of the era you can understand what topic it is on, if not start with what happened in that era, like the GD or ww2 and the main struggles during that time. you can also separate your ideas into politics, foreign policy, economics, social/cultural categories and connect to the closest category and what goals your question is trying to accomplish.
read the question before you read the doc, read the time period, and also do practice mcq tests (helps you get faster and realize what units you need to review) good luck!
@@solarlegend9813 oh im gonna start doing that, thank you!!
@@sannnaaaa5856 oh thats a good point I should probably start reading the question first, Ty!!
hi heimler you’re so awesome.
Broooo that specific document messed me up on a practice dbq! I started talking about how the pants he was wearing were Portuguese style not indian 😅
Hey Mr. Heimler do you need to have a "however" statement in your thesis for LEQ and DBQ's
In a video he made a few years ago, he says to say something like
"While (counterargument), (thesis) because (argument)
Ex:
"While cats were revered by the Egyptians, dogs are the best animal because they are hunters, provide companionship, and can be trained to assist the disabled."
In your body paragraph, however, I do this:
"(Bunch of words, evidence, analysis, whatever). *However,* some say that (counterargument) because (reasoning). (Rebuttal)
A world without our baldness is not a world id want to be in
I don’t know what to do
My APUSH teacher tells me to not read the prompt to not read the documents with funnel vision so I don’t skip information that isn’t as relevant to the prompt because it could be important for something else…
I wish this video was out 2 years ago when I was taking AP Euro at home 🤦♂️ 😂
heimler got da sauce
Shoutout to Ms. White my Apush teacher for being so great! (fyi she hates students who watch apush videos) :D
