Once this exam starts tomorrow all that matters is doing your best--and that means working for 3 hours. No heads down. No giving up. Use all your time and try everything. The only way you could ever disappoint me, yourself, or your school is by giving up--as long as you give your best effort you should walk out of that exam proud of yourself, regardless of any score.
"I can accept failure, I can't accept not trying." (Michael Jordan).
How can I study for my AP (Stat) Exam? A few ideas....
- Look through/re-do your midterm!
- Finish your bingo question packet!
- Score the open ended section of your April Break take home test!
- Complete Practice Exams!
- There are 5 practice exams in the Barron's books you were provided, with answer keys! These are an incredible resource!
- There are some questions in these books that differ from some stuff on the exam--if something looks weird, just ask!
- Look at the "AP Exam Review and Info" section of the links on this blog (to the right)--there are more practice exams, including many for your other AP courses!
- Complete released AP Free Response Items!
- This link takes you to every free response in AP Statistics history and their scoring guidelines. (Click me!).
- This is also linked on the right....
- The more practice you do, the better!
- Read through your notes; as you do so, type an outline of your entire notebook.
- Yes, this will be time consuming; however, it will be highly valuable....
- Creating an outline will force you to revise each concept we learned and pick out the most important information
- When you're done you'll have an outline you can print (or look at on your phone) and read when you have free time, you're on the bus, etc., and you can easily study these notes!
Have an awesome and productive night of studying!
Class Goals for the AP Exam:
- No 1's. We can all earn at least a 2 (45%ish of the exam correct). This is our most important goal, because this means EVERYONE is involved--and this would be a first in EHHS AP Stat history.
- Meet/exceed the national % of 3's or above. We have done this at EHHS for the past two years. Let's keep the streak going!
- Average score of at least 3. This would also be a historical best for EHHS. This is also a highly achievable goal for us this year--you each would need to score over a 50% on the exam.
- 64% of all (68) students earn 3 or above. Again, a very achievable goal, and this would be our highest % of qualifying scores in EHHS AP Stat history. We got this.
