Be prepared to waste hundreds of flashcards on this class. Maybe thousands.

DO 👏 YOUR 👏 HOMEWORK 👏 Don't worry about the 10 minutes of flashcard practice, it's not a big deal. Just get the homework done and you'll be set NEVER EVER EVER FORGET YOUR NOTEBOOK EVER

Practice Flashcards every day. Take detailed notes. Set aside at least 10 mins to study for tests.

Don't worry about flashcards that much, Murphy'll bother you about them but they don't really do much. I made mine, threw them out the next day, have an A in her class. Just be quiet, and try. Murphy LOVES to make the kids who don't even guess something feel awful, just say something. She uses a random selection method with popsicle sticks, but she still picks and chooses, so the more active you are in class, the less she'll call on you, especially if you get most answers right. Whether you are in 7th grade or 12th, she will treat you like you have the responsibility of a 5 year old. The faster you accept it, the better.

Never, ever defy any of the rules as you will get called out and it's super embarrassing.
