Mrs. pyland is a great teacher, and a master in her field. This is a very different class studying wise. If you are used to getting As, you need to study differently and work hard at home. Take notes in class, and retake all the notes at home, combining content from class slides and the textbook. Take practice multiple choice questions for the assessments, which are challenging. After you understand how the questions are structured, you will do well. Mrs. Pyland will help you suceed and she's a great teacher!

READ. THE. TEXTBOOK. The only way you can get all the material is by reading the textbook. If you are pressed for time, only read the modules she doesn't cover in class. And buy the 600 questions and answers book by barrons, she gets a lot of her test material from there.
