What is a DBQ?
Document. Based. Question. Many AP history and government exams feature
a DBQ (yes, I know this isn’t an AP class, but its still so important to practice college-level skills)
With a DBQ you will be asked to analyze ~7 to10 primary sources (maybe some secondary sources)

Try to walk away from reading the documents with 3 to 4 main arguments/points/themes that support an answer to the question
These 3 main arguments will become your 3-part thesis statement
