AP Review
Most of you will be taking the AP World History test in the GYM. Once the precise locations of all testers is announced, I'll post it on this page.
Given the time of the test (3 hours, 15 minutes of testing time), it is possible that y'all will test through a bit of LASA lunch. You will get at least a 30-minute lunch (likely during regularly-scheduled lunch) and report to 7th. |
Remember, YOU CAN DO THIS!

Essay Writing: Remember, you write ONE DBQ and ONE LEQ, which may reflect a variety of historical thinking skills. In the past, students wrote two
LEQs, one of which focused on CCOT and the other on Comparison. Linked below are previous topics for the CCOT and CA that you can use
for review/practice (but remember, now LEQ can target one of four historical thinking skills: CCOT, Comparison, Causation, or Periodization).
Past CCOT topics
Past CA topics
SAQs have changed on the WHAP test this year: you'll write 3, and now have a choice between prompt 3 OR prompt 4.
