AP world really taught be on how to be a more concise writer so I do feel the skills would be useful and well used especially with your class courses. AP world is a lot about knowing Cause and effect. I highly highly highly recommend the youtube Channel Heimler, the content will feel like a breeze.

as someone who took ap world my sophomore year: no. it's a hard class with a lot of specific concepts you need to have an in depth understanding of (not just memorizing things). if you want to get college credit, try and take a dual enrollment class at your local community college and it'll probably cover the same thing.

if you want to, honestly AP world was super easy. I managed to get a 4 and i really didnt heavily study like that maybe brushed up on review out of panic and was just passively taking in info from heimler and writing notes down. You need to know how to do basic humanities writing but it was easier than expected.
