Worst class I took, teacher does not actually TEACH, ever. Also is rude. Constant quizzes and LOTS of reading.

Read the textbook, do the study guides, and make sure you have a good understanding of the information as it's required to do well on the exam. Don't make Macsuga mad so do your work on time, do good on tests and quizzes, pay attention, and follow her instructions.

Please if you are a freshman DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. The actual material is pretty difficult but the teacher DOES NOT TEACH AT ALL!!!
Class of 2023
Know vocab, and actually read the assigned readings. The readings will help so much, and manage your time for this class. Extremely hard class, but great teacher.

Don't skip the reading and if there is extra credit TAKE IT. Your notes are more important than you think

Don't make Macsuga mad as you'll have her as your teacher for the year and be prepared to learn from the textbook/other sources and not from the teacher as Macsuga doesn't teach and merely reinforces the information and explains the format/techniques for dealing with exams (MCQs, Dbqs, LEQ, SAQ).

This class is definitely not easy but its not impossible. As long as you stay on top of everything and pay attention youll do great. Mrs. Macsuga is really nice and always willing to give help. It's a rough transition into high school but she makes it easier.
