You will need to both understand the concepts very well and memorize particular statistics. Memorizing your notes is good and all, but the multiple choice questions are mostly common sense based on the concepts you should know. Do not put off any work and do all the extra credit assignments. AP Environmental Science is the easiest AP science class, but that does not mean it is easy.

Ms. Masterson was the best! She made class really fun and entertaining. She was always kind and eager to help or explain things. However, she was a very harsh grader, especially on the short answer questions. She prepared me very well for the AP exam.
