Strategies for Review

⇨ Start with the list of major topics. This is what the test-makers say will be on the exam. Decide how best to summarize/learn/remember each topic. Highlight and focus on the topics that you feel need the most work.

⇨ Make and stick to a study schedule. Set aside specific times to study with specific topics that you plan to review and what you are going to do to review these topics.

⇨ Be able to describe each main topic based on all materials available to you such as: your notes outlines, study guides, labs and activities, textbook, the internet, PowerPoint notes, and the links I provide on our class website.

⇨ Make flash cards of the terms/concepts you don’t know.

⇨ Connect and recognize similarities and differences between the topics.

⇨ Review/practice how to set up math problems for units to cancel out (NO calculators).

⇨ Form a productive study group and arrange convenient meeting times. Have intelligent conversations with your study group and push each other to make connections between topics.

⇨ Take and analyze your performance on both the 2003 and 2008 released exams.

⇨ Critically evaluate how to improve for the AP exam using the Exam Diagnostic Guides.

⇨ Practice writing the previous AP Exam FRQ’s and analyze how they are graded:
