Tips for each subject from AP-graduates!

<p>Human Geography</p>

<p>Know your vocabulary by heart.
My teacher did this to help us understand concepts: We pulled 2 vocabulary words at random from a hat and had to explain how those 2 terms related. That’s one of the big things in HG: how things relate to each other. So, know how every concept and chapter go together.</p>

<p>Read PR. From cover to cover.</p>

<p>Know modern and past examples for EVERYTHING. That will kill you on the FRQs if you don’t know. It was always define, explain, and provide a modern/past example. Something along the lines of that. Yes, this year’s FRQs were easy, but if I hadn’t known the examples…ha. I wouldn’t have gotten a 5, that’s for sure.</p>

<p>(And although this may seem absolutely ridiculous [I thought it was], you’d better know the different types of architecture and religious buildings.)</p>

<p>Also- it’s not a good idea to skip too many MCs. Always go back and count how many you originally skipped. Once I finished the MCs, I thought I’d skipped maybe 5 or 6, but turns out I’d skipped 17. I went back and guessed at the ones I knew best, and left 5 blank.</p>
