ATTENTION ALL APWH STUDENTS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY
I just found a completely random website that an ap world history teacher made for his students that summarizes EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER and makes it easier to understand. He refers to it as AP world history Wiki. God bless that man’s soul.
Heres the link

Hey, Melissa! How do you study for Calculus?
When I took Calculus I online I would have video lectures by my professor. So i would take notes on those. The best part of video lectures is that you can pause and rewind, so I did plenty of that. Meaning if there was a 20 minute lecture video it might take me an hour to get through the whole thing just to make sure I get down everything I wanted to and stopped to practice the examples. I see no point in rushing through the lecture just to get it down because then you’ll probably have to watch it again! I would up the playback speed up to 1.5x but the stopping did obviously make it end up taking longer than the total time of the video (though it would have taken even longer if I didn’t speed it up). This allowed me to take one clean, neat set of notes rather than rushing through and then having to rewrite them later. The only reason I rewrite my notes in normal semesters is because I can’t read my mid-class handwriting otherwise.
So once I had that I would go do my homework. At first I tried reading the textbook but that ended up taking so long and it wasn’t all that helpful to me anyway (I don’t generally find math textbooks helpful). So I would have my notes and my book on hand while doing the homework. If I got stuck on a limit, derivative, or integral, I would type it into Symbolab where it would give me a full solution. From there I would try to figure out what I did wrong. It’s very easy to start using Symbolab to get the answers and not as a supplement, so just as a reminder, it will not be helpful to you on exams if you just look up the answers for your homework. Use the tools as they were intended. I also found a Riemann Sum Calculator, too, which ought to be used similarly.
In a condensed semester there’s not enough time to do extra practice outside of the homework but in a regular semester I would recommend doing extra practice if you have time. Get a notebook to do your homework in and fill it up with practice. If you’re not struggling with anything maybe try to do one extra problem for each type you’ve encountered each day just to stay sharp. If you find that you’re solid on pretty much everything but are struggling on one specific type of problem, just do several of that type to practice until you understand what you were doing wrong and correct it. If you still can’t get it you can always consult the internet or ask your professor.
One additional thing I did was fill up a mini Moleskine with condensed versions of my notes. Since it’s so portable I could bring it with me anywhere and just glance at it when I had an extra moment to remind myself of the material. This was especially useful for rules I had to memorize. You don’t necessarily have to make them the day of the class you take the notes, but I wouldn’t put it off more than a week because it can get to be too much after some time. If you don’t know what I’m talking about when I say “mini Moleskine”, check out my post on it here and you can see an example of it here.
I hope that helps! If I change my study method for Calculus II in July (which won’t be online) I’ll be sure to add to this post! For reference, I did get an A in Calculus I.

I STUDIED HISTORY OF ART FOR SIX YEARS AND I CAN’T STOP LAUGHIN
One of my favorites
It’s pretty accurate too haha. I love art history… & I love this informative spice to it.
hello! i hope it's not too much trouble but i just have some questions about ap latin? like how long have you been studying it and how difficult did you think the exam was? im very interested in it but always felt kind of intimidated by the subject
Hello! I don’t mind at all!The AP Latin exam is usually meant for students who have taken 4 years of high school Latin, the last of which is an AP class. I was in a somewhat different situation because I studied Latin more informally with my mother from age 9 and came into high school Latin a year ahead, so I had had seven years of Latin experience (three of which had been academically rigorous and about two of which had been supplemented with considerable time spent in the tumblr classics community) when I took the exam this year. I personally did not find the test itself very difficult. The hard part of the exam is the preparation that goes into it: in order to succeed, you need a solid grasp on the Latin language, and you need to have done a large amount of syllabus reading from the works of Vergil and Caesar. I can definitely provide you with more advice if you are interested in AP Latin or Latin study in general.

Note: these are MY notes, that were written to help ME remember the content. What I write may not be the best notes for YOU! Ideally, take a look at the online PDF of notes. They’re more detailed, but if you’re confused, or really on a time crunch, then use these. :)

40 Studies that Changed Psychology
If you are called to read 40 Studies, a link to a FREE pdf can be found here. It is divided by the chapters, and in the chapters are 3-4 studies, each.
If you, like me, find that a free online copy is way too tedious to read, there is a set of online notes from EACH study that can be found here.
General Tips
Know how to read a period table.
Print out a periodic table for your own use. Place it somewhere in your binder for easy access.
Know how to determine the number of valence electrons for an atom from the periodic table. Oxidation numbers? Yeah, those too.
Know certain elements mass number by heart so you don’t have to constantly look back to see what the mass of hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), etc. is
Know periodic trends like increase in electronegativity, etc.
Read the material before class starts. This makes it easier for you to follow through lecture and ask questions about things you are not clear about.
Take good lecture notes. If your teacher posts his/her lectures online, I would advice you to print these out before class, read through them and take notes on them.
Read your lecture notes once again after class to keep the stuff fresh in your mind.
Focus on key concepts and how to apply them.
Do not memorize! If you don’t understand the concept well enough, memorizing will not be helpful at all.
Learn these by heart:
formulas and names of common polyatomic ions
solubility rules (including the exceptions)
common acids and bases (including their strength).
gas forming reactions
molecular geometry shapes
Check that your equation is balanced before anything else. Nothing screws up a stiochemetry question, and loosing easy points like unbalanced equations.
Scientific notation will screw you over if you don’t know them.
Write the equation out! It’s easier to figure out how the reaction works when you visualize it. Especially if you’re trying to figure out which one is the oxidation agent, reduction agent, etc.
Practice makes perfect. Go through every question in your textbook + external questions. Know the question type, how to approach it, etc. The more familiar you are with the types of questions, the easier the class will be.
Be familiar with mnemonic devices.
OILRIG = oxidation is losing electrons, reduction is gaining electrons
Know basic math such as addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, logarithms. General Chemistry is math heavy.
Make a “cheat sheet”/ “index card of information” for yourself. Your cheat sheet should consist of formulas, numbers you might need to know (Avogadro’s number, standard pressure, etc.) and concepts.
Utilize your professor’s office hours and free tutoring services!

if you’re taking AP US History this year listen up
So today was the first day and my APUSH teacher gave us this website, apnotes.net, and I thought, oh, cool, maybe it’ll have some extra information and just basic stuff to help with the course.
But, oh man, it’s so much more than that.
This has complete notes on each individual chapter, links to more resources, exam info, and probably my favorite part, a list of all of the presidents, up to Obama, with little notes underneath with their achievements and little facts you’ll need to know about them.
The notes are based off of the 12th and 15th editions of The American Pageant, which I’m pretty sure is what most, if not all APUSH classes use. Even if you’re not using that book, though, the notes are still amazing. This helps with any US History course, really.
Of course, you should still take your own notes and all so you can interpret the text and your teacher’s lectures in your own way that’s easy for you to understand (plus writing stuff down makes it easier to remember), but it’s still a really great resource to have to make sure you have everything you need and that you understand everything.
APUSH is hard, so this makes things so much easier and I knew I had to share this website to anyone else who may need it this upcoming school year.
Best of luck! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
AP Book Reviews
AP English Language Barron’s: (6/10) So this book starts off by asking you to annotate the passages. I’m going to be real with you…you aren’t going to have time to make meticulous annotations. None of the tests were particularly helpful, but the notes are somewhat useful if you aren’t a frequent writer/reader. Before taking the test, I memorized about 40 “hot terms” like synecdoche and apostrophe to use in my analysis essay, and got a 5. I wouldn’t say English is one of those tests you can’t study for, but it really is 50% natural writing skill and 50% practice. The best practice is to just check out old prompts from the collegeboard website. I would not recommend buying this book if you are on a budget!
AP U.S. History Barron’s: (7/10) If you are using this book while you are learning the material during class, it could be helpful because you are reading a condensed version. On the other hand, if you buy this book a week before the AP test, it’s not helpful because there is way too much reading to do. The practice tests do not capture the essence of the real test unfortunately. I would recommend buying this book at the beginning of the year.
AP Biology Barron’s: (8/10) I think I quickly skimmed this book front to back and got a 5. However, it was really Bozeman videos that helped me get through so, I would recommend buying this book at the beginning of the year, otherwise not worth it because of the online material.
AP Statistics Barron’s: (10/10) This book is a must! The questions are a little harder than the actual exam so it really prepares you and it explains the actual reason behind the statistics instead of just telling you to plug and chug. I would recommend this book!
AP Chemistry Barron’s: (8/10) The book goes too in depth with some topics which are not major concepts that will be tested, I don’t think it is worth buying unless you are bad at chemistry (like I was). The practice problems are decent, and it’s actually kind of a fun read, but not the type of book I would be looking for the week before the AP test (Princeton Review is better for that).
AP Calculus Barron’s (7/10): Practice problems are much, much harder than the actual exam, which is good for practice but bad because it kills your self-esteem. The explanations in the chapters aren’t very helpful, so I would buy this book if you’re already pretty good at calc and are just looking for some practice problems.
AP Calculus Princeton R: (9/10) Would recommend buying at the beginning of the year, because it explains in very good details how to do everything. I did find some BC concepts missing from the chapters though. Overall, a good book that would guarantee at least a 4 on the test. The practice problems tend to be the same level as the actual exam.
AP Physics C Princeton R: (10/10) Pretty hefty book and a difficult subject to understand but if you get through the whole book with perfect understanding, there is no reason why you shouldn’t get a 5. Practice problems are very good, as are the explanations.
Rule of thumb: Get Princeton for hard sciences where practice is key, get Barrons for humanity classes and where memorization is key.
Repost: Updated post about this AP resource blog. If you’d like to help out, please read below and follow/message/reblog. Thanks!
As the title says, this is a new blog that is going to be set up to help out with next year’s AP classes. So far, I’ve started setting up the pages for every class. If you click on the blog itself, you’ll be able to see this. We are setting up a tagging system so that people will be able to follow their specific classes. So here is a post explaining the blog and what we need/are doing at the moment.
Organization: To organize the blog, I have created pages that redirect the user to a page where we have tagged posts for the specific class. This blog has JUST started, so there isn’t anything more than a test post in any of the class links. Just, FYI, this is how its going to work.
How to Help: I am currently looking for people to help make the site navigation better. If you know how to work HTML in ways that will help to organize the side/top bar to drop down menus to organize classes that would be great. If you have any other suggestions and ways to help the site navigation we would be forever grateful. Also, I kind of like the idea of making a group message chat… does anyone know how to do that/have suggestions?
Admins: There are quite a few AP classes, as you all can imagine, and we’re hoping to fulfill the needs of every class. So, we need people who will be taking classes next year, willing to look for resources all year round, willing to make/share documents, and post regularly about notes, tips, and other resource findings. We’re looking for people who will be able to keep a regular tagging system (that we can figure out together). I, Keila (@yoyopotato), created the blog but I can make people admins or contributors so that we don’t need to share passwords and have separate accounts b/c that gets complicated!
We currently need people taking the following classes:
Art History
Studio Art: 2-D Design
Studio Art: 3-D Design
Studio Art: Drawing
Comparative Government/Politics
Microeconomics
World History
Calculus AB
Calculus BC
Biology
Chemistry
Physics C: Electricity & Magnetism

Macroeconomics AP Tips
This is a relatively new blog being made for people to compile resources and lists for as many AP classes as possible. I made this blog on my account, so I’m currently the only poster using it, and I’ve been working on some of my Macroeconomics Summer homework. If anyone would like me to post the resources and notes that I’ve made, please tell me. I have a google document for each “Module” in my book, and I can make some master posts of tips and vocab words and stuff if you would like me to. If not, I’ll have them posted throughout the school year.
If you have ANY interest in following, posting, or participating in any way, please see the post here ! Happy summer! ~Keila

We’re looking for dedicated people who have good grades/scores, because we don’t want to let people down, and we want people who are able to keep good studying habits while contributing semi-regularly. We don’t want to take time away from people who should be studying. If you’d like to be a part of the poster groups, everyone will be able to make submissions.
The goal is that this blog is up and running by September. Plenty of us have summer homework, and I know I’ve already started on it, so there should be posts before then. Share and follow this blog for updates! :)
