currently freaking out because my first ap gov unit test is tomorrow but i’ve already watched a few of your vids including this one and feel much better! i have a feeling you’ll be a staple in my studying this year thank you!
I want to get a 5 so bad, but i think im gonna start shaking when i see the test and forget everything. regardless, good luck to everyone who has to take this in 12 hours!
slowly realizing my teacher is just gonna spend our time talking to us about his political views...glad I know about this channel so I can try to pass 😅
Man, I should strongly consider to take these videos more seriously. I hear a lot of comments in the lines of “these videos have carried me in this class.” It’ll make a good study routine.
I was on this channel last night, watched all required court cases, all fundamental documents and this video til 3am. Just finished my AP Gov Exam today and did really well, so helpful, Thank you Heimler. Gotta wait for the score, wish me luck😂
m cq had like 5 questions difficult for me, and frq's werent that bad, but i yapped a. ton, so probably a 2 or 3, (im quite pessimistic about grades in general)
Hi! Any other last minute crammers here? For this essay, do I still get the point if I have a correct counter argument, but put it in the beginning after my intro/thesis paragraph?
If I understand correctly, as long as it appears in your essay somewhere and has enough depth to get the point if it were placed at the end, you would still earn the point if it were placed at the beginning.
Hi Heimler, thanks for these videos! I was wondering, do I need to write an intro paragraph, or is a thesis on its own enough? I remember that the APUSH essay needed background, but the Gov essay doesn't, so I'm not sure if it's worth writing an intro at all.
@@mayasiha5919 im taking the test tmr, but normally you should have 1 thesis paragraph, 2 body paragraphs (each with the name it, explain it, and analyze it), and 1 rebuttal paragraph. total of 4 paragraphs
@@mayasiha5919 normally the counterpoint to the counterpoint is your conclusion. like proving why the opposite view is wrong with the summary of your overall reasoning/answer to support your own opinion
The threshold for the these point in AP Gov is not as complex. In the history courses you can get a point for complexity, so the more complicated formula will help with that. There’s really no point in getting that complicated in Gov. But you certainly can use it if you want to…
Use two pieces of evidence and THEN use a counterclaim Don't mix the two because your evidence should support your claim while the counterclaim is the other side
could you still earn a point for mentioning a piece of evidence that relates to the thesis, but didn't include the source of where the evidence came from?
