Thinking about that time in APUSH when the teacher was trying to teach us a lesson about how bad the past was and instead taught himself about how much pressure is put on US high schoolers.

He gave us an account of a typical weekday of a 16 year old girl working in a textile factory in Lowell Massachusetts. We were then to write down our schedule on a typical weekday and compare.

My comparison concluded that she had more of a social life, more free time, actually had a boyfriend, worked fewer hours, slept less, and could get around more independently than I could.

Most other students reached similar conclusions but many of them also slept less than her. (I slept 8 hours, she slept 7, and many of my classmates slept 6 or less) I simply slept more because there was never any caffeine at my house and I couldn’t physically push myself to power through. I paid for this by working 10+ hours on homework every weekend.

After grading our homework he came back the next day with such a look of pity and said something along the lines of

“I had no idea it was this bad. It wasn’t like this when I was 16. I’m so sorry.”

This was over 10 years ago. If that teacher is still teaching APUSH he probably doesn’t do that assignment anymore.

I don’t regularly talk to any high schoolers, but I do keep up with current events. I don’t have a perfect idea but from what I can tell all the problems that were there when I was 16 are now way worse plus a whole pile of new horrific problems, some of which probably cross the line into being straight up human rights violations.

It wasn’t like this when I was 16. I’m so sorry.

how to study for social studies subjects

I’d like to think that one of my strongest focuses is social studies. I love learning about history, economics, government, e.t.c. and I do well on tests! I thought that most people had it easy when it came to these subjects, but throughout working with peers and friends, I realized that wasn’t true, so here are some tips to get through those subjects: 

Memorizing will be your friend: This is one of my biggest tips that I still use for my social studies subjects. Memorize, memorize, memorize! Of course, you should first understand a concept or term before memorizing it, but it helps so much to know words. I use quizlet and knowt.io to help me memorize, but you can use a variety of ways to remember. This is especially helpful for tests, as you can help fill in the blank when reading through questions and other readings.

Trick your brain: One of the reasons I was so good at social studies subjects was because I was interested in politics and government. I’m really interested in the controversial aspect of politics, which helped me understand forms and branches of government, how the economy works, e.t.c. I’ve recently heard this tip on the internet, where people trick their brain into thinking that the subject they are learning is like lore for a tv show or novel, and it worked. Your brain will probably be more likely to learn if you make it enjoyable.

Use a variety of resources: A lot of social studies subjects will have more interesting and engaging resources to use, rather than like physics with a boring textbook and some reference videos. Topics like politics will have a wide variety of books, articles, news reports, movies, and even TV shows covering them. After understanding the concepts and things you may need to know, watching a political TV show can be a form of studying! You can learn to apply, discuss, and critique different forms and resources to apply to the thing you are studying. 

Find ways to connect to the modern world: Social studies subjects are one of the easiest to connect to the media and the news; you will often find articles and reporters speaking about the economy, what's going on in the supreme court, and who is voting or pushing for what agenda. If you ever need to find examples to help you learn and study, just watch the news! It’s a great resource, and can help you apply what you are learning to the real world. Oftentimes, test-makers will give a question set in a scenario, where a country is going into a recession and you may have to explain ways to solve or help it e.t.c. so the news is a great resource to see it real time.

My biggest flex is not reading the apush textbook but accurately guessing the editors of the two most infamous yellow journalism newspapers because I'm obsessed with Newsies

#apush #apush me off a cliff #its pulitzer and hearst by the way #newsies #92sies #broadway #newsies live #pulitzer and hearst they think they got us #do they got us? no! #also it took me till apush to realize the war pulitzer mentioned was the spanish american war not the civil war #i just thought he'd been struggling selling papers for like 30 years #which is really funny #anyways newsies!

Fight Club characters as things I've heard in APUSH

Tyler: "No, they didn't kill him; they just fired him... OUT OF A CANNON!"

Marla: "Yeah, the Victorian Era was a trip."

Narrator: "Morality is relative; you do you, boo!"

Angel Face: [talking about popular Roaring 20s slang] "So in the 20s they would've said something more like 'my eyebrows are on the cat's pyjamas.'"

Ricky: [after receiving test grades] "Bruh, you are not graduating."
