Yes, there are two types of history that are AP courses. They are: World history and US history.
The AP Exam is 3 hours and 5 minutes long. The periods covered are Pre-Colombian to 1789 (20%), 1790 to 1914 (45%), and 1915 to present (35%).
The curriculum is based mostly on social and cultural history, although there are economic topics as well.
AP US History/Yes.
Yes, several people have had AP US History.
There are a lot of AP US History review books. Here is the top one entitled The Insiders Complete Guide to AP US History : The Essential Content. This is recommended by REA pep teachers.
Go to historyteacher.net, it has power points, questions, and more. There are also many books around with help for the ap exam, and the class.

Its a great site and is helping me on the tests in my class, there is also information there for AP US History and World History (or whatever that class is called).

Oh my what aguineapig.
The college board likely does not want you to fail the AP history exam. They would just like you to take the course in college.
It depends on which college you get into or apply to, some colleges do not accept AP as a college course, whereas some others do accept AP as college credit.
There are notes at the website in the related link.

Yes. Most colleges love to see students challenge themselves with AP courses. A pre law major would probably want to take many social studies courses, as well as other academic subjects to be well rounded. So your course choices are excellent. My only suggestion, which is biased, would be to take AP English Language instead of AP Literature. AP Language offers more useful information, and will help you write even better scholarship and entrance essays!
