I suggest that you study, study, study. You are going to pass only if you put 100 % effort into EVERYTHING.

The class is made to be more difficult than needed for anyone attending. Us students are treated as if we are attending an AP college-level course where in reality its a sophomore class. The material is not taught properly and the teacher even said on the first day HE ISNT WELL WITH LARGE CROWDS! Why is he still a teacher? I don't understand why he is employed by Warwick High School, he is better off teaching a college seminar rather than a bunch of 15 to 16 year-olds.
