Keep up with the readings; don't procrastinate. There's going to be occasional pop quiz reading checks, but not on a daily basis like other teachers. Finish your essays and be completely prepared for declamation at least five days before the due date.

This year was different because we had science everyday and this was Mr. Balickis first time teacher 2/4 units we did over the year. He is very knowledgeable, but sometimes he doesn't really explain things a lot, and this leads to having some trouble with homework. Overall he is a chill dude and very lenient about getting to class, and lab rules.

Group projects are a huge portion of each term's grade. Read the books, don't just use Sparknotes! Your understanding of the topics and your grades will thank you for this!

microeconomics is super easy, one of my easiest classes this year. every quiz and test was easy with lots of prep beforehand. you got packets and review videos. he would also post multiple review problems and optional videos to study with, which were extremely helpful if you were confused on a topic. do the homework nightly and bring your notebook to class everyday, you won't regret it. and the ap daily videos can be put on 2x speed which is nice if you want to take notes quickly. he also emphasizes the importance of drawing your graphs carefully and detailed which is super important for the ap exam and his class. he will not give you full points if your graph is messy. he will also not give full points if your video isn't fully watched so wait two seconds after the video finishes to make sure. always participate in discussions, he will give you full credit if you speak twice so it's important to have ideas beforehand. the topics are all very interesting if you like learning how the world works. good luck!

Mr. Brownell is by far one of the best Latin teachers at BLS. He does give a fair amount of work, maybe a bit more than average, but it always helps. He does activities to make you memorize your Latin vocabulary and watches funny videos for you to memorize grammar. He will definitely prepare you for next year. He also teaches Greek 1 at BLS. Very similar to the Latin course.

-Pay attention to the lectures. Ik they may seem boring and useless but the topics she covers verbally do show up in her tests/quizzes. It can sometimes be really interesting if you are somewhat into the language and the history and pay close attention. -Reach out for help asap. She is very willing to assist students but only if you take initiative. -Participate as much as you can, even if you get something wrong. It builds up your relationship with her a lot better. -She is a strict teacher but not an unfair one. She will be brutal in grading tests/quizzes, but she will not hold anything against you if you get something wrong. Try your best, learn from your mistakes, and over time, you will adapt to it.

Study a lot and you honestly should learn all of the material yourself if you want a good grade. Sometimes the test and quiz material is not talked about in class and there are things on the quizzes that you are expected to know without having learned it.

do your homework everyday, she gives 2% onto your grade (95 to 97 which can be a whole letter grade! ). go to her office hours if you are confused before the test. and ALWAYS do the test corrections. it might seem like a lot of work but those points add up. and remember to do the webwork everyday for each lesson you have. if you leave it for the week before it's due you will struggle since you have already taken the test and will have forgotten the topics. relearning it is helpful but not fun especially under a time constraint. plus the webwork is super specific so one wrong calculation and your whole answer will be wrong. thankfully there are unlimited tries! good luck!

- make sure you actually understand the concepts beyond memorization; she teaches a lot of memorization but understanding how the formulas are derived on your own is something that I HIGHLY recommend to help prepare you for tests - the class gives you free reign on your computer - use that to your advantage! (you can do work for other classes, but I recommend doing some math to prepare you for the tests - you should try to look through the week's classwork each week; she posts all the material for the week on Google classroom

memorization is key for this class. also make sure you understand the pattern for pop quizzes; they are not "pop" once you understand his pattern. also little to no test review, so that must be done on your own.

Honestly one of the best experiences coming out of a history class you are going to get. Unlike other teachers, Mr. Fogel makes history not just about memorization but actually being able to apply concepts and demonstrate your understanding through projects, explaining a subject, and a lot of inquiry-based work. The class is always full of energy and joy; the quizzes and tests aren't too hard, either. This will be the easiest A you are gonna get if you do all the work. Feeling your grade is down? Do the extra credit, you can raise your grade by a few points! Feeling like you are struggling in class? Mr. Fogel is free nearly every single day before and after school, and you can also shoot him an email as well! The homework is there, but definitely manageable. Even homework is fun sometimes! (Not the standard boring textbook readings every time! )

Take detailed notes on every lesson, based on both whats on the board and what she says. Stay on top of all your homeworks, this is the best way to memorize the material for her tests and quizzes. After 2 missing homeworks, every homework not completed is a point taken off your total grade for the class. If you complete every homework 2 points are added to your total grade. This class is difficult, but manageable. Good luck!

Best teacher I've had. Ms. Moon really teaches you and she has high standards, which train you for future years. Enjoyed the experience. I have to admit this was also the most difficult class I had taken at the time (compared to 7th and 8th grade) since there's a reading check DAILY. If you pay attention in class you will learn a lot, but don't make silly mistakes or you will lose points and good luck on the 100+ reading checks that you will have.

this class is very writing and project heavy which i'm sure you anticipated. the class is easy with few quizzes thankfully. projects are always done in class, usually in groups so don't worry about excessive homework. usually the homework is to read essays and take notes or write a prompt afterwards. super easy and doable. DO NOT procrastinate the personal essays to the last minute because you can't think of an idea, just use a seed journal and start writing. or look up fun prompts online. his advice on essays is very helpful and if you don't understand what he meant, just ask him. he loves helping students and is always up to a chat about your writing. and don't worry about your writing not being good enough. i thought that way too, but the truth is, the writing just needs to exist. let the words flow and fix them after. write about literally anything and he will be excited about it and proud of you. don't overthink it, oftentimes the only one reading your writing is you. you can choose to share with the class but it's optional. and he can't read everything you write since it's a writing course. so just think of everything as fun practice that you don't need to worry about. good luck!

ap chemistry is a hard class. don't be discouraged if others are doing much better than you, just keep studying and work hard. ask him questions even if you think they are dumb. the quizzes will be insanely hard, you will either do well on the frqs or mcqs. thankfully there are quiz corrections where you do a worksheet and explain all the answers to him on video. he doesn't watch the video, only listens to them. here's a basic study guide for all of the topics: https://docs. google. com/document/d/1JDMwPeqHqrTv8iWoKLTPoAiQqB1bP3L6VbYX0el-kYU/edit? usp=sharing if the curriculum changes, this will no longer be relevant but it's helpful to read it before a quiz and study the topics you don't remember. the quizzes are usually every friday so keep thursday nights open for studying. the class is very fast paced so try to keep up and study often. it's a very diy class where you get a worksheet and some slides, and are expected to complete multiple pages. it's time consuming but helpful. problem is, if you aren't doing it right or don't know how to start it's not very helpful. just talk to him if you have any concerns or questions, he is very helpful and loves the subject. you might think that you are ready to fail or blame yourself for choosing the class, but keep going. you will know MORE than enough before the ap exam and will do phenomenally. good luck!

if there is in-class time for the essays, USE IT. talk to him about your ideas as well, he's super helpful with advice. if he gives you discussion questions, do them thoughtfully. this way you can contribute to the discussion the next day which will boost your grade. the quizzes can be super hard but they're thankfully not often. if you write in your notebook often, you are more likely to succeed plus he lets you take open-note quizzes sometimes. he doesn't check notebooks, just asks for pictures of your answers to some of his homework questions so you can use it for other classes or as a journal if you want. good luck!
