<p>Is there any tips or strategy to breaking down a frq question? For me, I have no idea on what to write when given a prompt on the frqs</p>
<p>You can pick up a lot of points by writing code that does not accomplish the task mentioned. If you absolutely cannot figure what to code, do the following:</p>
<p>Look for the return type. Make a variable of this return type, and return it. This is almost a guaranteed point</p>
<p>Is there an array in the class they want you to modify? Access at least one value. It doesn’t even have to be accessed in a way that does anything, or makes sense.</p>
<p>Utilize other methods from the class, just having this in your code can sometimes give you points.</p>
<p>ok thanks for the tips, when my teacher went through the frqs with us i felt lost.</p>
<p>Also adding to what Cagg said, the later parts of the question (like b) or c) ) will likely ask you to use a method that was written previously, like if it was the method written in part a. Even if your answer for part A is complete bs, you can rack up points easily by using the method they tell you to do so correctly in later parts. This makes the later parts of the question the easiest as they just ask you to add onto what you’ve already wrote for the most part. Good luck!</p>
