AP World Test 1-6

                The history test we took today in AP World instilled fear into me.  I spent about two hours per chapter; I read it carefully and took notes of everything: dates, people, and geographic locations.  These notes were excessive, and there was too much for my own good.  The day before the test, I was scared of how difficult it was going to be.  Up until the moment of the test, I was afraid of the difficulty.  When the test was passed out, I looked at it with confidence.  The test was not as brutal as I thought it was going to be, but it was not a walk in the park.  I answered some of the questions with complete confidence; other questions had me doubting myself.  I particularly had difficult with the questions in which you had three options and had to choose the combination that was correct.  I also had a small bit of difficulty with maps and quotes, which was peculiar because I usually never have issues with those types of questions.  The test was a bit easier than I expected, and I felt that I did an okay job on the test; only when I see my grade can I say that I did a good job.  For the next test I will prepare by carefully reading over the textbook, and I will take notes that focus less on dates.
