Hey, I'm prepping for the APUSH test and really want to ace the DBQ section. Does anyone know where I can find past APUSH DBQ prompts and examples for practice?
Hi there! To practice for the DBQ section of the APUSH exam, you can use the past prompts and examples available on the College Board website. They have a section dedicated to APUSH, and you can find past prompts, sample responses, and scoring guidelines for the DBQ from previous years.
Here's what you can do:
1. Go to the College Board website (collegeboard.org) and search for "AP US History Free-Response Questions."
2. Look for the results that say "AP United States History: Past Exam Questions," and click on it.
3. You'll now see a list of available years with free-response questions. Click on the year you want to practice with, and you'll find a PDF with DBQ prompts and other free-response questions.
For more practice, you can also search online for unofficial APUSH practice resources. There are various websites and forums where students share practice DBQs and tips for preparing for the exam. Good luck on your APUSH test! Remember to practice your DBQ writing skills and analyze the sample responses to improve your own writing.
