<p>How I’m doing my DBQs/ essays until late Feb.:

  1. Practice untimed, open note essays in one sitting. Do the ones from the CB site. grade based on what the rubric says.
  2. in Feb. close the notes, but leave it untimed.
    After feb.:
  3. do some timed ones, no notes.
  4. take prac. tests, with essays/ DBQs timed.</p>
