2011 AP Human Geography Preparation Thread!

<p>Germany.
They got hammered after WWI in the Berlin Conference which is why they didn’t have a Colonial presence after it.</p>

<p>D. Weight-reducing industry</p>

<p>I might be going to bed a little late Dx . I hate when teachers assign work during AP week.</p>

<p>“a single line cross out if you mess up.”</p>

<p>Is it bad if I scribbled out half of a page on a Bio FRQ?</p>

<p>Probably not, considering it was half a page that you didn’t need. It’s just to avoid clutter when they’re grading the essays for the most part…doubt that they can legitimately dock you points.</p>

<p>What is a symbolic landscape? Oh my god… x.x</p>

<p>Symbolic Landscape… lol multiple definitions
-symbols on a landscape that represent the culture there</p>

<p>-smaller landscapes that symbolize a bigger area or category. iconic landscapes, i.e. the state capitol symbolizes WI. every landscape can symbolize something, but these are focal points for people’s attention</p>

<p>-representations of particular values or aspirations that the builders and financiers of those landscapes want to impart to a larger public</p>

<p>Did anyone else just start self-studying today?</p>

<p>whats a three-field system?</p>

<p>3field system was used during the European feudal system (during period of the Dark Ages after the fall of the Roman Empire) and the people would work on 2 fields and the other one remained fallow so the soil could rejuvenate. Its sort of like crop-rotation…</p>

<p>anyone gonna allnighter tonight? im so screwed for the test tomorrow. i’m only up to political geography…</p>

<p>Spotty1, it is crop rotation. :P</p>

<p>Guys/girls, if I miss 10-12 on the MC and get average FRQ scores, what can I expect? A 4?</p>

<p>Do you guys think I could start self studying now and get a 5? The person in charge of APs said that you can drop in on the day of the test if somebody else signed up to take it is not taking it, and I personally know that one of my friends won’t be taking it tomorrow because she’s sick. I don’t have a prep book yet, but I could go out and buy one right now. Is it feasible or should I skip it? Also I can’t start until 9.</p>

<p>what is a forward capital?</p>

<p>yanks12, I’m feeling an all-nighter, or at least a 1 AM-er</p>

<p>@bob Skip it. You can’t get a five in one night. There are a lot of terms and models needed to know.</p>

<p>I was joking. Well not really, I was curious to see if it was possible, and if the response had been an overwhelming yes, I might have tried it.</p>

<p>Yeah we’ll find out if you can get a 5 in one night because that’s what I’m going for…</p>

<p>I’ve been studying for about 2-3 months.
I’m gonna be up late tonight anyway.
Maybe 1Am.</p>

<p>thanks spotty, and bob dude go for it. just learn the major models, and then just use common sense, stuff you’ve learned from history, and some outside knowledge. that would be sick if you still pulled a 5</p>

<p>One night? I doubt you’d get a 5. This exam is notorious for being considered a “joke,” but it’s still an AP exam at the end of the day.</p>
