The final weeks

Clarification: The AP exam exemption policy says that you must be passing the class and have fewer than 6 absences to exempt the final exam. Anyone who is not passing must take the exam.

If you are part of the crowd who has to take the final, then take those practice exams that you used to prepare for the real exam. Your exam will be multiple choice.

Getting ready for the exam

I have sent out emails to 3rd period teachers asking for you to be released in time to eat (except for JROTC and pers fitness. Please let them know!!!).

Meet at the outdoor classroom between 11 and 11:30.
Bring pencils, calculator, pen, smile, sweater, mittens, scarf, hand warmers. . .

Just kidding a little about the stuff to keep you warm. Reports from Monday's exams were that it was FREEZING in the gym. Bundle up in layers.

Some sites to visit:

Somethings to remember:
You CANNOT discuss the MC problems at all--not in person, not on the phone, not on the web.

You can discuss the free response problems after 4:00 on Thursday.

Bring pencils and a pen to the test. Do not bring your cell phones, i-pods, etc. You can leave them in my room. I will lock them up.

Know your assumptions/conditions.

What questions do you have?
