[|AP US History Course Notes] - "The reasons this website is so great is because it has everything you need to know about APUSH. First of all, there are the course notes, which include extremely detailed notes, a shortened version of the actual textbook. Also, there are timelines (which are not as good as the others, but great nonetheless), important documents from the time periods (such as the inauguration speech of Lincoln), and important parties. The important political parties, I found, were really useful because I always had a problem memorizing the different (dozens of) political parties such as the Free Soilers. This section gave only the important ideas of the parties, such as the origin and the things that advocated for. The best things about this site, I find, is the COURT CASES! I hated, hated, hated them, because they were so many of them and they were really hard to memorize. This site has a great summary of the different court cases in alphabetical order, so I could easily find and understand them." - Review by Rachel Moon

[|A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn] - Link to an online copy of the book frequently used in class

[|America: Past and Present Website] - Link to the website for our textbook [|The Ultimate Study Guide for APUSH] - at least that's what the author of this site claims :)

[|University of Wisconsin: History 102 Website] - Created by Professor Stanley Schultz - in my opinion, one of the best internet resources available for Reconstruction through the present.

[|The Presidents by The History Channel] - A great resource from the History Channel on all sorts of information pertaining to each of the 44 US Presidents and the issues that they dealt with. (It's actually fun as well - go figure!)

[|Open Educational Resources] - This is my new "favorite" for APUSH Review. There are 80 different lessons, each with short readings and videos (which are actually somewhat interesting and very informative) which review all topics for the exam from early indigenous peoples to the Bush Administration. I strongly urge you to start using this to review for the exam NOW!
