Practice AP Exam
We will take a full length AP exam on Thursday, April 26 from 4:00 to 7:30 in the cafeteria.*
~ This practice exam counts as your final exam for the course and every student must take the test
~ Be on time, bring #2 pencils and your calculator, and do not bring food.
~ The exam will be given in the same manner as the real exam, in two parts with a short break between multiple choice and free response sections.
~ The exam will be graded on the AP scale, so you will receive a score of 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 based on your scaled raw score (out of 100).
*If you have a conflict with another event (lacrosse or baseball game or chorus concert), you must see me ahead of time to make arrangements to take the test. For any other activity, it is your responsibility to let your coach or sponsor know AHEAD OF TIME that you will miss practice or the activity on that day.
Units 14 and 15 Assignments
We're almost done!!! These last two units are about inference for categorical variables and regression. After we learn these concepts, we will focus on reviewing all content and test taking strategies.
