I have LOVED watching your videos! Thanks so much for the effort you have put into these! I have a daughter starting in AP Lang & Comp and AP Environmental Science this year. She is not as confident as you appear in your videos. I have pinned your videos for her and will have her spend a Saturday watching your videos. Anxious to hear what college you are hoping to get into.
I'm so glad that these videos are helpful to you and your daughter! I know she is going to really enjoy both AP courses and learn a lot from them. I'm actually a rising junior in college right now, but I started making these videos when I was a high school student :)
Thanks for your feedback! I've made two videos on the AP Lit poetry and prose essays, and both videos show how to write a thesis for each essay. This video is on the prose essay: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c4vq8aHv1Lc.html. This video covers the poetry essay: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fPu1HJytfYI.html. Hope this helps!
Since the test is open note, would you recommend writing out template answers to commonly asked questions (basic themes)? Also, what do you think of the grading this year (will there be more 5's or less)? Thanks!!
Although the test is open note, you probably won't have much time to refer to other materials. Just prepare as best as you can before the exam and you'll definitely be ready! Also, I'm not sure about the scoring.
Reeya Bullshit, don’t listen to some people.If your a fast reader what you just commented could theoretically work. Just as long as you have the materials right in front of you and ready to look at then you should be fine.
Also do you think, since the exam will be 45 minutes, it is necessary to know every Apush period as detailed as you would know if the exam had been not changed?
I would suggest that you try to know periods 1-7 (which is what the exam will now cover) as in-depth as you would have if the exam had not changed. It's always good to be prepared!
@@aishaergelen6538 You're right, my bad! It's units 1-7, according to the College Board website: apcentral.collegeboard.org/about-ap/news-changes/coronavirus-update
I would say that the info bank is probably more helpful to study from beforehand. Although the test is open-note, you probably won't have much time to reference any other materials!
@@jaa9395 I would say do some practice FRQs beforehand and see what method works best for you. As long as you're following the College Board's instructions, you'll do fine!
Ms. Peer Editor thank you so much! Do you also know if we will be penalized for maybe checking out a definition on google and rephrasing it in our answers?
This is what the College Board says: "Your class notes are better than internet searches. The internet can be an excellent source of data and facts, but it's also a source of misinformation, diverging opinions, and manipulated content. In the experience of our faculty, students taking open book/open note exams who try to find the answer on the internet often earn fewer points than students who use their time to apply their own learning to develop a logical response." You can find this information and more tips here: apcoronavirusupdates.collegeboard.org/students/open-book-tips
Hi Shruti! Unfortunately, the College Board hasn't specified yet how many FRQ questions there will be for the AP Human Geography exam. On April 3rd, they'll release that information on their website and social media.
Go to this page: apcoronavirusupdates.collegeboard.org/students/taking-ap-exams/ap-exam-schedule. Scroll down to the "Sciences" section and click on "AP Physics 1: Algebra-Based." You can find the types of free response questions you will have to prepare for under that section. To look for past exam questions, visit the AP Physics 1 website: apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-physics-1?course=ap-physics-1-algebra-based.
This is what the College Board says on their website: "For most subjects, the exams will be 45 minutes long, and include an additional 5 minutes for uploading. Students will need to access the online testing system 30 minutes early to get set up." You can find their updates here: apcoronavirusupdates.collegeboard.org/
Hi ms peer editor Can i register for ap exams know plzz check if there is an option avilable i was not aware of such thing exited earlier as in my village we dont have internt connection so plzz check if there ks any chnce i cant get ap cerdits nd i am gokd at studies so plzzz check i am not able to send email them or i cant contact them
Here is a form from the College Board's website that you can fill out if you don't have access to a device or the Internet for the AP exams: collegeboard.tfaforms.net/74. According to the website, you'll hear back from a member of the College Board's customer service team 2-3 days after completing the form!
I'm not 100% sure because I couldn't find any specific requirements for the written version, but I would recommend using a pen for some free response questions, especially for exams such as AP Lang or AP Lit that require longer essays. Your work may be more visible if you write in pen and take a picture. Make sure to check out the pages on the College Board's website for each exam that you are taking to see if there are any specific rules :)
It can be pencil and if pen it's either black or blue ink with the code on top of the paper with your initials and if there is more than one paper of writing you have to number it on the top. (From the video i watched on collegeboard)
