Strategy tips

Read the question carefully before looking at the choices. AP Euro Unit 4 questions often hinge on distinguishing similar-sounding thinkers (Hobbes vs. Locke, Voltaire vs. Rousseau) — don't assume based on a single keyword.

Eliminate before guessing. Distractors often include true statements about a different philosophe or a different unit's content. Cross out anything that doesn't directly answer the question asked.

Connect thinkers to themes. If a question is about Locke, Montesquieu, or Adam Smith, think about which course theme (CID, SP, ECD) it connects to — that's usually the key to the right answer.

Read the explanations even when you got it right. Each one teaches a small fact that often returns in a different form on the exam.
