This app can be an effective AP World History study option for a well-organized, independent student who will learn best through repeated practice questions. The app covers the six categories included on the AP, and all questions resemble the actual exam in format and content. The free trial includes 30 practice questions from different categories and two weeks of Question of the Day. Students will need to upgrade for access to 500 questions with explanations, unlimited Question of the Day, and practice tests customized by category and number of questions. Students are expected to learn entirely by answering the questions and reading the answer explanations. They have the option to see answers and explanations “as you go” or at the end of the exam. Exam day countdown, flagging questions, test-taking strategy guide and comprehensive review of test results and history are some of the helpful features on this app. Overall, the customizations make this a good choice for self-directed students who generally know the content and understand what they need to do to improve, but this app could be ineffective for students with a weaker knowledge base or study skills who need more guided instruction.

The Science Behind Mobile Learning:
Overloading your brain with too much information at once is a common study mistake. Research has shown that smaller, more frequent study sessions are the key to knowledge retention. In other words, taking short quizzes on the go is a much more effective means of exam preparation than reading page after page in a textbook. Apps offer the benefit of interaction, which means you’re far more likely to remember a concept you engage with rather than one you’ve only read about.

Take your AP World History studies with you, no matter where life takes you.
