AP US History Tutors in NYC, ATL, and Online

Given in May, Advanced Placement (AP) exams are not only challenging, but also a great way to show universities that you can excel in college-level classes. Even better, scoring a 4 or 5 on an AP can exempt you from taking those classes as a freshman in college! Students are allowed to take AP exams even if they aren’t offered at their school, which is particularly useful if you’re a wiz-kid in a specific subject.

AP US History covers the American story from 1491 CE to the present. The exam contains a multiple-choice section, long and short essay questions, and one document-based question. Students must be able to recall specific facts as well as craft arguments about important developments in the nation’s history. Whether you need help studying for the AP US History exam, or just want to do better in the class, Ivy’s got your back. Our tutors have helped countless students score 5’s and 4's on their AP exams, excel in AP courses, and earn college credit along the way!

What Happens If You Fail an AP Exam?
By Lisa Speransky
What Happens If You Fail an AP Exam?
You might be worried if you fail an AP exam (where failing is receiving a score less than 3), but don’t worry! Passing an AP exam has many benefits: you may receive college credit, it may help you win an AP Scholars award, and it may add to a larger picture of your academic success that can help you get into colleges. Failing an AP exam won’t grant you these advantages, but doesn’t carry any additional weight beyond that. You can certainly still get into colleges, however, you may need to take additional courses once you attend university than you would have with a passing AP score. It’s also worth noting that a failing AP score is evidence that you likely have not grasped the course material, and is an opportunity for you to rethink your study habits.
