Week of May 13

This is the week of the AP exam. Between now and Thursday, try to spend about an hour each night reviewing the course content. Remember it is much better to do this a little at a time than to cram at the last minute. Use your findings from last week's diagnostic test to target areas that need the most attention. Pay particular attention to the "time line of major events" sections in your review book. Hang in there - we've almost made it!!
