Answer: The material isn't hard, it's staying on top of the workload that may be difficult. A typical day "work-wise" would be an in-class lecture, and about 30-45 minutes of homework, for my class at least. My teacher hands out a packet at the beginning of the week (usually 2-3 chapters of the unit) and it's due on Friday along with a 5-question quiz. Every twoish weeks we have a Top 40 quiz, which is easy if you're good at memorizing, and just regular exam prep scattered throughout the week. The AMSCO APUSH 4th edition book is amazing for reviewing and summarizing the lessons. 100% recommend.
