The AP Biology test date is approaching fast!  I know most of you are wondering about the format of the test.  View the following video for more information:

Answer the following questions about the video.  You can email me the responses, message the responses to me on Facebook through our page or write your responses and turn them in during class.

1.  What are the two parts of the test?  How much is each part worth for your overall score?
2.  How long is the multiple choice?
3.  List the tips on how to do well on the multiple choice.
4.  What are grid in questions? What can you use during this portion?
5.  How do you grid in fractions and decimal points?
6. How long is the free response portion of the test?
7.  List the tips on how to do well on the free response.
8.  How long should you take on the long free response? How about on the short free response??
9.  What two things will you be tested on?

Make sure to create a student account on apscore.org.  You will be able to view your scores of the AP test in July.  Additionally, use the AP student website to access practice tests.  You can access this website by using your college board account.  Thank you!
