What surprised you? *Create a SPECIFIC GOAL for how you will do better on the AP Exam. How will you hold yourself accountable? en-us 2018-04-18 17:51:53 UTC 2018-04-18 19:08:49 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Shakinghands.png Josue Cruz https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253162984 The Mock Exam was somewhat easy and I felt a little bit more confident as I read the questions and wrote my responses.
I need to improve on questions over Periods 2 & 3. I definitely need to improve my time management when reading the documents and writing the DBQ
What surprised me was the amount of Period 1 and 3 questions,the D.B.Q. Question
To improve on the AP Exam, I will study The Book for 30 minutes a day and review the Quizlet in Reboot.]]> 2018-04-18 18:48:10 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253162984 Ivan Salinas https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163311  I felt that the test was short yet very difficult. I need to improve on my general knowledge for the DBQ and LEQ. I was surprised I manged to keep up with the test's time of 55 minutes and even finish before the time was up. I will try my best to study more than what I did for the Mock Test because I felt I did very lackluster.]]> 2018-04-18 18:48:56 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163311 Alex Zamora https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163669 1. I felt very uneasy toward the mock at first but the more i read and started getting a little refreshed i felt somewhat better.
2. I need to improve my anylization skills toward documents.
3. Definitely the DBQ as it just flew over my train of thought and i couldn't think straight when i was doing it. 
*I could try to study more consistently every day and maybe try and find my weaker points of knowledge and work on that by rereading the chapter that covers that specific event or time]]> 2018-04-18 18:49:42 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163669 Ernesto https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163982 I felt like the mock was not as bad as i thought. the time went by faster than i thought. I need to improve on the time i spend per question. To improve ill start going over the periods i don't remember the most of by watching vids and using the book ill also try to improve m,y time management that really messed me up.]]> 2018-04-18 18:49:58 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163982 Diya Patel https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163988 1. I feel okay about the mock, not so great because I should have prepared more. 
2. I definitely need to improve on managing my time between the DBQ and LEQ, and need to work on improving my skills on the DBQ itself. 
3. What surprised me about the mock was that each multiple choice question was connected to either an excerpt or an image. There were no questions by themselves.
4.  To do better on the AP exam, I will hold myself accountable for going through the review book given to us and refreshing my memory on the time periods I feel weak in. I will also practice how to do write a proper DBQ and improve my analyzing skills by going through and reviewing previous DBQ assignments that were given to us. ]]> 2018-04-18 18:49:58 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253163988 Brandon Espinoza https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164304 I felt that the mock was complicated at first, but as I kept reading each question of the multiple-choice, and the prompt for each essay such as the SAQ, DBQ, and LEQ it turned out to be kind of easy, but yet unpredictable.                                                                  
The only thing I actually need to improve on is efficiency because I lacked most of it during the mock.

What surprised me was the amount of excerpts there was on the multiple-choice.

My goal is to study all the periods, but mostly periods 1 through 4. And if I follow this protocol, best case scenario I'll probably get a 4.]]> 2018-04-18 18:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164304 valeria lerma https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164467 1. I don't feel that good about yesterday's mock. A lot of the writing part could be better then what it was yesterday.
2.I need to improve in knowing more background information for the writing part not just what the documents say.
3.What surprised me was the time and how the multiple choice questions were asked.
My goal is to try to learn more background information and to study the book more then i did before the mock. Also to focus more on periods 1 and 2 because i cant remember specific examples from those time periods. ]]> 2018-04-18 18:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164467 Heaven De Leon https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164509 1. I felt okay with yesterday's mock. I was not completely lost, but I know I could've prepared more. 
2. I definitely need to improve on the DBQ, specifically analyzing the docs. 
3. I surprised myself because I somehow managed my time adequately. Also, the DBQ surprised me because I wasn't not prepared for it. 
4. My goal is to continue to study using Khan Academy, and to get through all the videos and assignments that Khan Academy has to offer for WHAP.]]> 2018-04-18 18:51:05 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164509 Azul Elizondo https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164598 1) Yesterday's mock took me by surprise about some topics I wasn't prepared for. I felt that I could not remember details on older periods. The DBQ also threw me off because I did not remember the proper way to write. In total, I do not feel confident towards my score. 
2) I need to improve on the older periods, primarily 2 and 3. I should familiarize myself with the growth of empires and of the Chinese dynasties. 
3) I was surprised about how much of the test was over material given in the beginning of the year than more recent material. The time limit on the test also surprised me, although I did expect a tight time limit.
4) I should spend more time looking at my review material, whether it is the book or Quizlet. I will do my best to review over the periods. To do so I can spend each night reviewing material of significant empires and nation. I can spend my time understanding the timeline of the Asian empires and how they grew. ]]> 2018-04-18 18:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164598 Demetrio Torres https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164718 1. For someone that didn't study, i felt okay about yesterday's Mock.
2. I surely need to improve on my study habits, obviously. I can do that by reading the whole Amsco book again, reading the whole "the book", going through the whole freemanpedia page, watching crash course videos or by simply doing all of those within the span of a month.
3. What really surprised me was the multiple choice section. I really think we LITERALLY aren't given enough time to read through all the passages AND answer 55 questions in 55 minutes. "That's life i guess" 
-Drake
4. My goal is to TRY and study the materials i mentioned in my response to question 2.
5. I will hold myself accountable by deliberately grounding myself or by facing the consequences of failing the AP exam.

2. I need to improve on my dbq skills and completely finishing the questions 
3. The multiple choice questions surprised me as we have 55 minutes to answer 55 questions but each question has a document attached on it making it much harder to answer questions thoroughly. 
I need to improve on time management by trying to read and comprehend faster and i also need to work on my dbq skills by watching videos and practing dbqs and document analysis.

2. I need to improve on maintaining the things I study by just repeating the material each day
3. i was surprised about the questions and how they were asked 
I want to at least be able to know I answered the prompts and followed the formats and also be sure to be come familiar with a map of different periods. I can do this by making sure i know how to form the essay and also have background information of whatever the topic can be by fixing study habit.]]> 2018-04-18 18:51:35 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164768 Jonathan Roque https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164825 1. I felt the mock as there being too limited of a time limit for the multiple choice section of the test so that part was difficult and the dbq was the part i didn't understand at all, that was the hardest part of the test in my opinion.
2. I need to improve on learning more on the different time periods and handling my time better, i need to read faster and waste no time.
3. The most surprising part of the test was the multiple choice section, every page had passage that you had to read in order to answer the following 3-4 questions and i'm not a quick reader so i wasted a good amount of time that i could have been using on the questions themselves.
4. My main goal is to make something higher or a 3 and i will get there by looking over each section of the book when i have free time, during pie time or at home for at least 25 min, i will also try to make a study group with a couple of my friends.

2) I need to improve on my studying habits as well as writing and analysis skills for the DBQ. I also need to work on outside knowledge to make the writing sections a bit easier.
3) The fact that we had to either read or analyze a picture for each question surprised me.
4) My goal for doing better on the AP exam will be studying more often everyday, especially during free time at school. I will be watching videos and going through the book more thoroughly. I also need to go through the quizlet more. ]]> 2018-04-18 18:51:58 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253164960 Jurnee Navarro https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165133 Yesterday's mock exam was a real eye-opener, it showed me what my strong suits were and what I lacked knowledge on. The DBQ had a lot of things that I felt a bit hazy on and couldn't really write anything.
1.)    I need to read more in depth over chapters that I haven’t read in a long time. 
2.)    I really need to maybe make a couple of practice quizzes with questions I may think I don’t understand or think is too hard. 

]]> 2018-04-18 18:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165133 Moses Ramos https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165443 1) I felt pretty confident over taking the mock yesterday
2) Although I felt confident I need to work on managing my time more efficiently and working on the queuestions easier
3)The thing that mist surprised me was the amount of time I had , at first when I heard how much time we were getting I felt confident but from when the test started to when it finished went so fast
4) My goal I want to set and achieve is to work quicker and efficiently , I believe by doing so I will get better so when the real Ap exam comes around I can answer the questions to the best of my ability as fast as possible
5) I will hold myself accountable by studying harder by reading over vocabulary flash cards as well as early material we covered that k may have forgotten and I will take practice test and focus on the important key elements that the question is asking and leave out any irrelevant information.]]> 2018-04-18 18:52:54 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165443 Leslie Guerrero https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165733 I felt like it was easy but I just didn't remember enough information. 
I need to force myself into using all reasorces to remember more for the test. 
I was surprised how time goes by very fast. 
I will be secure on the day of the Exam and I want to get at least a 3.
I will look at the "book" more and make notes on the dynasties. I will look at vocab and the quizlet everyday for at least 30 mins if not more. I will also watch a crash course every day. I'll watch part of it and take notes on it and keep doing that. If not then I'll try to watch as much as I can before I go to bed. ]]> 2018-04-18 18:53:30 UTC https://padlet.com/chehernandez/gghuc1zifp6z/wish/253165733
