How to Write an SAQ (AP World History Modern)

This video will outline how to ACE the SAQ - the short answer question utilizing a simply strategy - Answer the Question, Cite Evidence and Explain. We will look into a sample SAQ about Ashoka and demonstrate how you can write clearly, name drop sweet evidence and move on to the next question.

GOAT AP World teacher if we’re being honest here

Its kinda funny cause you use the acronym ACE and my teacher uses PEE (not making that up) P=have you answered the Prompt E= you need Evidence and E= you need to Explain your evidence in a way that correlates back to the prompt.

I’m having my first APWH test this Friday... I’m so nervous but thx for the tips:)

Just curious, you were able to answer the questions with your knowledge about ashoka, which is great, but let's say you did not know anything about ashoka, is there a way to just use the source to make your claims and evidence or does it have to be from your own knowledge.

better acronym: TEA (thesis evidence analysis) very easy to remember..
