Don't be a tard on the multiple choice; don't spend all your time writing your thesis; make sure you answer the prompt; don't bother being particularly poignant; lastly, on the rhetorical analysis essay, which, I've noticed, is what students have the hardest time on, instead of just listing off rhetorical devices and strategies, always--ALWAYS--provide an actual analysis.

Ugh I remember wanting to take the AP cal test without taking the class, some gangsters at my high school got mad at me. I had no idea that there was a CLEP so i didnt end up taking either. But I got an A in the class at college.

The best piece of advice anyone can give you is to not sweat it. Seriously. There are going to be questions that you'll look at and think, "What the hell," but you shouldn't sweat it. The questions are important, but the big guy is the writing. If you don't understand how to answer a prompt, you could try bullshitting, but that generally doesn't work on college board. Just try to relate everything to the American Dream or disillusionment with Germany after WWI or some shit. Also, don't fluff anything up. College board proctors are looking to check off a bunch of items on a list and grade you accordingly. The person grading your essays don't give two shits about how beautifully you can write or how you can link two ideas perfectly with an extra 2 sentences.
Again, don't sweat it. Even if you get a 1 or a 2 (or even a 3, really), having taken the AP class is going to prepare you immensely for the college classes relating to what you learned. I got a 3 on the AP Euro exam and taking World / European history in college was like re-watching The Wire. I remembered everything on a surface level, but exact names, dates, etc were re-memorized.
