Make sure to memorize equations and if you have questions or don't know how to do a problem, ASK QUESTIONS. The only way I learned how to survive the AP test was to ask questions. As a female in this class, I did feel supported by the teacher but if you can, ask to be seated and partnered with the other girls in the class and you will feel so much more comfortable. End of year units are hard, but you either know it or you don't. Definetly be ahead on assignments because you can feel very overwhelmed if you aren't. Labs are hard, but I recommend making a group chat for everyone in the class to discuss lab results. Good luck!

Make sure you know the basics through and through, as they tend to be forgotten. Examples on powerpoints are not anything near the difficulty of quizzes or tests. Lots of outside learning required.

Teacher is nice but strict on dress code so pull them shorts and skirts down a lil before going into class ladies ;) No matter what, believe in yourself because second guessing may not always be the best solution.
