Laugh at Dr. G's jokes- no matter how much of a dad joke they are. This will ensure you become the favorite student and secure an A.

For AP US Gov & Politics, look at the College Board website where they've laid out what exactly what court cases & primary documents will be on the AP test. Many more court case examples are taught in class to give a bigger picture and greater understanding, but for deciding which cases to commit to long-term memory this is helpful.

Dr. Greenstein's class was one of the highlights of my school day. He's very understanding of how busy students are outside of school. He's super knowledgeable about US Gov and explains things very well, with random jokes in between. If you need help don't be afraid to ask him, it's better to start sooner than later!
