AP European History

The subject requires in-depth analytical skills regarding a specific region with many complex political, social, and intellectual changes. The difficulty lies in the depth of analysis rather than a broad scope like World History.
AP European History focuses specifically on the history of the European continent from circa 1450 to the present, whereas AP World History has a global scope, and AP US History concentrates solely on the history of the United States.
Historical thinking skills such as source analysis (especially of European texts and images), contextualization, evidence-based argumentation, comparison, and identifying change/continuity are core, along with DBQ and LEQ essay writing skills.
One needs to demonstrate a deep understanding of the specific events, figures, ideas, and context of Europe in the period in question, while effectively using source documents (for the DBQ) and background knowledge to construct coherent arguments.
Intertu helps systematize the complex flow of European history, focuses on developing skills in analyzing specific source materials, cultivating historical thinking, and provides strategies and in-depth practice for DBQ and LEQ essay formats.
