It has been said that Mr. James Katcko of Loyola Blakefield in Towson, Maryland has the highest number of fives (5s) per year. He affectionately refers to these steller students as his "Hall of Five". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.88.115.3 (talk) 15:44, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
It seems the comment about the 20 percent pass rate doesn't jive with the grade distribution. Fives at 11 pct, fours at 17 pct.
"14 pages of notetaking is common." This is clearly someone's personal experience. It does not belong on the encyclopedia entry.
The extensive list of acronyms/abbreviations at the beginning of the article is unnecessary. We don't need to include every nickname the course has ever had. 128.36.50.19 (talk) 20:00, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
In the sate of Texas, students can earn $100 dollars for every AP test they score a 3 or higher (I believe the money comes from a private foundation, not the state itself). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.197.82.143 (talk) 19:21, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
Broken PDFs
[edit]It appears to me that the 2010 and 2011 PDFs referenced are either censored or damaged, as I see lack bars instead of get. The other PDFs work fine, though. --01:36, 3 May 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ReagentX (talk • contribs)
In case people come here to decide whether or not to take the class
[edit]It's a ton of work. A TON. Be prepared, very prepared. And possibly scared. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.119.185.255 (talk) 23:36, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
But it's totally worth it and amazingly fun. ReagentX (talk) 04:34, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Plagiarism
[edit]The bottom paragraph of the 'the exam' section ("Approximately half..." is copied and pasted from this article: http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/members/exam/exam_information/2085.html (second paragraph). What is the policy for handling this?
None, Wikipedia is not a location that claims original work and plagiarism can be ignored on wikipedia. Wikipedia is rife with plagiarism. you can try to summarize the points.
In what country?
[edit]Is this all in the USA? It's not remotely contextualised geographically. Isn't this an example of American-centredness? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.2.125.203 (talk) 17:15, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

List of AP textbooks
[edit]A new section in this article: I believe it would be useful to have a list of in-class textbooks that are used to teach AP Euro throughout the years. As history evolves and changes it should be useful to the reader to know what was taught previously. The lost should not have material that is suggested for study, but actual textbooks that are used by teachers in the classroom. the list can be from the current recommended AP textbook for that year.
- (I personally have been looking into an older version of my AP euro book and have found that many others want to find the books that were used during their time.)
