APES College Board EXAM REVIEW RESOURCES

Updated May 2, 2007

Success on this exam does not come easy. You need to study, you need to practice essay writing and study the rubrics. You will see multiple choice questions about things never covered in class, so take out the two worst answers, and if necessay, guess. Essays are challenging, and sometimes an essay might totally freak you out. Answer it last and use common sense.
