As a member of the TOS Homeschool Crew, I was given a copy and asked to review an Advanced Placement (AP) Exam Prep DVD (though I have no high schoolers) for US History. Cerebellum Corporation produces the DVDs to help students prepare for the AP Exam.It is a 2 disc set totaling 73 minutes. The cost is $14.98 and is currently on sale for $11.24.
Topics Include:
- Manifest Destiny
- Articles of Confederation
- Origins of the Two-Party System
- Jacksonian Democracy
- Slavery and The Civil War
- Jim Crow Laws
- The Progressive Era
- The Great Depression and The New Deal
- WW II
- The Civil Rights Movement & the Vietnam War
This appears to be an interesting way for students to review for the AP exam. Not having high school students preparing to take an exam, I really cannot speak to its effectiveness. However, the price is nominal if you have a student who will be taking the AP US History Exam and you want to provide them with extra study material.

As a mom of a high school student, I think this series looks interesting. One video from the series was available from our library, so I am going to take a look at it that way. I plan on order a few if I like it as much as I think I will. Thanks for the review.
