How I Crammed for AP Gov Last Year (resources that helped)
2024.04.09 17:00 Greedy_Strain_9025 How I Crammed for AP Gov Last Year (resources that helped)
Hi guys, I took the AP gov exam last year and I mostly did all of my studying the week before so I thought I'd share what helped me still get a 5 for anyone on the same boat. For reference, I had a 84% in the class. If you have any other resources that helped you please comment them in the thread to help anyone who's taking it this year!
If you didn't take notes properly, this study guide was made by past ap gov students & does a pretty good job of going into all the important stuff
https://knowt.com/note/b11b2173-a75e-4bff-94fc-b9c232559cce/The-Ultimate-Guide-to-AP-United-States-G Start By Learning the Amendments Especially if you're cramming last minute, there's not a lot of time to get into the details so don't bother. Make sure you know the
13th-15th amendments, which are all about voting rights,
18th-21st amendments that both legalize and ban prohibition, and the
19th amendment which granted women the right to vote. It’s always a good idea to study the other amendments, but these ones especially like to show up on the exam. For each one you should know :
- What the amendment does at a surface level
- What events led to that amendment
- What events happened as a result of that amendment
- 2-3 key facts you can use to BS your way through an SAQ that mentions it
Foundational Documents - I just googled a flashcard set for this and ran through it a few times. Fed 10 (Federalist Paper No. 10), Brutus 1, DOI (Declaration of Independence), AOC (Articles of Confederation), The Constitution and BOR (Bill of Rights), Fed 51 (Federalist Paper No. 51), Letter from Birmingham Jail (MLK), Fed 70 (Federalist Paper No. 70), Fed 78 (Federalist Paper No. 78)
Focus on these processes (at least one of them shows up) - Legislative process
- Budgetary process
- Appointment process
- Ratification process
- Electoral process
Do lots of practice!! When I was cramming I did 1/3 of the time for review and 2/3 for practice, cause for me I remember things better when I mess up and go back to learn why.
Free MCQ Practice Heimler FRQ Playlist Vocab Flashcards
Paid
(Romulus AP US Gov App) REQUIRED Supreme Court Cases For the cases have a brief idea of what each one decided and any if the key causes and effects for it. I'm not gonna list them all cause
Heimler has a solid playlist on each one and what to know. There's also this list that's pretty good if if you prefer something written
http://apsubjects.weebly.com/uploads/2/0/5/3/20538716/keycourtcases.pdf Free Response Questions : even if you're cramming, I would start at least a week out with the FRQs and do 1-2 a day cause they're a big part of the score. I just
used these ones that college board release (This took forever to write, please upvote if it helped!)

2022.07.11 19:04 Jude2425 In-Process* Greek Readers Megathread
Some notes:
There is a considerable amount of arbitrariness in this list. I predominately have works listed with same/facing page vocab and grammar helps. The older generation of readers (like
Salamis) have those helps in appendices. I think these works are important enough to our community that the should be listed anyway.
Also, I've included AG translations of modern works (Harry Potter, Winnie the Pooh, etc) many of which don't include vocab or reading help at all (notable exceptions would be those works by Glossahouse). I think this category is small enough that it's nice to have them listed. That's my reasoning.
Some ways this could be better:
Steadman's, Nimis's works are available as free PDFs through their publishing sites. I need to include those links.
Maybe the classifications could be improved.
Less reliance on Amazon. I buy from them all the time and I don't like them. But they were really convenient to link to while compiling this.
I haven't yet compiled a list of Bedwere's comics, both the PDFs and the Lulu press store.
So, what have I missed? What other works should be included?

2022.05.14 18:02 -jacey- Can we make a master list of comprehensible input resources for beginners (all languages)?
Regardless of your opinion on language learning methods, I think most of us would agree that input (listening and reading) at your level is an important part of the learning process. For me personally, it's also the most FUN way to learn.
However, it's not always easy to find resources for input that is comprehensible for beginners. I thought it would be helpful if we could make a list of specific resources in a variety of languages, so we can save them for when we start a new language, or to share with people who are just starting their journey, or who are struggling with their listening/reading skills.
Specifically, I'm asking for resources for levels A0-B1 that use the target language to tell stories or communicate messages/information. They might use pictures, drawings, slow and simple language, etc. to make it understandable for beginners. I'm NOT looking for resources that explicitly teach grammavocab, or that heavily use translations. I am also not looking for listening/reading drills/tests/exercises.
Post your recommendations below, and I will edit them into the original post so we can have one big list. Please include a link and make your recommendation specific (instead of saying, "graded readers", include names and links to specific books that you enjoyed). Whenever possible, include the language level of the resource, the format, and whether it's free or paid.

2021.07.29 00:54 Ok-Anywhere7861 Definitive Guide for a 5 on AP HUG (please upvote so it reaches more people)
First things first, AP HUG is easy if you know how AP's work (Got a 5). Over this past year, I've been compiling resources for AP HUG into a google folder. This folder has practice tests, useful links, textbooks, review books (the most recent ones), notes, study guides, etc. Please take an in depth look at it and FAVORITE IT, STAR IT, IT IS GOING TO COME IN HANDY!
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1bdE0TQPM-94HHfz9rvtPaHLyvdw2gszy?usp=sharing How to Study:
Firstly, familiarize yourself with the course and exam description. There are 7 units in AP HUG and make sure you understand the skills and content AP is going to assess you on.
https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/pdf/ap-human-geography-course-and-exam-description.pdf?course=ap-human-geography Next thing, you may want to know how to study throughout the school year. The most popular textbook out there is the Cultural Landscape (or AMSCO, but I don't have experience with that). In all honesty, Cultural Landscape covers the major concepts but like any textbook, contains too much superfluous information not in AP (not saying that hurts though). I've taken a look at 5 steps, Princeton Review, Barron's, and Kaplan, and settled that Princeton Review is the best one. It covers most content related to AP and does a fine job. Its practice questions are a little sus but it's pretty good overall. Read the other review books and try out their practice problems for a thorough understanding. During the schoolyear, if your teacher wants you to read the textbook, you probably should, but if you read all the review books (in my folder), you can actually avoid reading the textbook altogether (I know this sounds sacrilegious, but it works). My teacher went by the units in the course and exam description, and gave us about a little less than a month for each unit (which is actually plenty of time). You should expect to put in 45 minutes a day for AP HUG sometimes more.
Additionally, AP HUG is global, meaning that it teaches you to think about the world and its interactions. You will need to know political examples, agricultural examples, population examples, etc. For this, I stumbled upon a godly teacher website that compiled all "case study" videos and articles that will really further your understanding of how AP HUG and the world works.
https://sites.google.com/forsythk12.org/boneaphg/home?authuser=0 You can click on any unit you want and click resources. Please, Please use this website and explore around; it also has presentations, notes, vocab lists (seriously, it is the best website I've come across).
Lastly, when it comes to other online resources, click my folder, and click the essential websites document.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XpusFfpolIpJxmo8P1h-SIik1ubBKC1bRswyQbHyfvQ/edit?usp=sharingThere you will find tons of links to websites I myself have used. The first link is the teacher website. Each of the links are categorized for your convenience. When it comes to FRQ practice, PRACTICE EARLY. The moment you finish learning a unit, do the frq practice according to the valdez online link (this website sorts frq's by unit)
http://valdezonline.weebly.com/aphg-free-response-questions.html In addition, youtube is an invaluable resource. The best youtube channel for AP HUG out there is Mr. Sinn (this past year, he created videos to match the course and exam description). He is very helpful; he even categorized his videos by unit (and has a discord community that's helpful). If you want videos based on the Cultural Landscape, check out Andrew Patterson (he created presentation slide videos for HUG). Links to Mr. Sinn and Andrew Patterson are both in the document. If you're looking for a review, make sure to check out collegeboard's 2020 playlist of videos if you want to review unit by unit and 2021 if it's March/ April and want to start preparing. Next, some other pretty good resources are Fiveable

https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-to-ap-human-geography?index=product&queryID=1d36959acf7523a066914e79321113bf&position=1 With that said, you can pick and choose whichever resources you like best, but the ones I mentioned above are ones I highly advise taking a look at.
How to Prepare:
I prepared a month in advance. For MCQ, I used the practice tests that are in the folder, prep books, and website on the document. For FRQ practice, I made a google document and put the year of the frq, timed myself, graded myself, put my score up, and read the Chief Reader Report. The Chief Reader Report is interesting to read because it talks about what most people missed and what are some common misconceptions (you can click on the year of the FRQ and the chief reader will show up).
https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-human-geography/exam/past-exam-questions My google document for FRQ practice looks like this
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y7w77A0JB3VkpQLMtYrz94Ufgpz0UqEiYV3EKkav18Q/edit?usp=sharing, where green means I got the point, red means I missed it, and highlighting means I somewhat got it. I did close to 8-10 sets of FRQ's (I know that's a lot, but if you're willing to put in the work, you can reap the rewards in the end).
With that said, AP HUG is an introductory AP class, which means it shouldn't be too hard, but seems hard because for many of you, it may be your first AP class. But following my guide, tips, and also using my resources strategically, it is almost guaranteed for you to achieve a 5. If you have any questions, PM me or ask here and with that said, good luck! I believe you!

https://www.edx.org/course/introduction-to-ap-human-geography?index=product&queryID=1d36959acf7523a066914e79321113bf&position=1 With that said, you can pick and choose whichever resources you like best, but the ones I mentioned above are ones I highly advise taking a look at.
How to Prepare:
I prepared a month in advance. For MCQ, I used the practice tests that are in the folder, prep books, and website on the document. For FRQ practice, I made a google document and put the year of the frq, timed myself, graded myself, put my score up, and read the Chief Reader Report. The Chief Reader Report is interesting to read because it talks about what most people missed and what are some common misconceptions (you can click on the year of the FRQ and the chief reader will show up).
https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-human-geography/exam/past-exam-questions My google document for FRQ practice looks like this
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1y7w77A0JB3VkpQLMtYrz94Ufgpz0UqEiYV3EKkav18Q/edit?usp=sharing, where green means I got the point, red means I missed it, and highlighting means I somewhat got it. I did close to 8-10 sets of FRQ's (I know that's a lot, but if you're willing to put in the work, you can reap the rewards in the end).
With that said, AP HUG is an introductory AP class, which means it shouldn't be too hard, but seems hard because for many of you, it may be your first AP class. But following my guide, tips, and also using my resources strategically, it is almost guaranteed for you to achieve a 5. If you have any questions, PM me or ask here and with that said, good luck! I believe you!

Reading Techniques (Work in Progress): - Identify ALL particles first (including but not limited to correlative/interrogative/temporal adverbs/adjectives, conjunctions, exclamations, etc. see Smyth Section 2770, p. 631)
- Then Demonstratives
- Then other indicators of subordination or coordination such as infinitive or participial constructions.
- Then Prepositions and the phrases they govern.
- Then identify and parse verbs' Person Number Tense Mood Voice (always check for Primary or Secondary endings, individuate tense signs/stem, then potential euphonic transformations between the tense stem and primary/secondary endings. Much more to be said here.)
- Individuate the clauses in a sentence or passage using the above information.
- Check to make sure every subject has a verb(s) and every verb has a subject(s). i.e. Use the above information to deduce and then supply any elided material in a sentence.
- Note: Particles often introduce, mark, or complement coordinate or subordinate clauses, and their absence from a sentence (often, not always) indicates the presence of a primary clause.
- Note: Particles that introduce a subordinate or coordinate clause often end at the first appearance of a new verb, editor's punctuation, or both (compound/complex sentences complicate this so stay alert).
- Note: Authors that rely on large ellipses (think of Livy, Pindar, Tacitus) still generally follow these rules, but the reader must become sensitive to the ways in which each author, genre, language finds unique modes of departing from these rules.
