The idea
The exam runs from the ancient Near East to sixteen forty-eight: about one hundred twenty questions in ninety minutes. Six periods carry fixed weights, and the Ancient Near East carries eight to ten percent of them.
In practice
Six bands: Near East, Greece, Rome, medieval, Renaissance and Reformation, early modern.
Where people slip
The exam tests recall, cause, sequence, maps and passages, not essays. Learn the chain.
