In two weeks, students across North Point will pick up their pencils, rip off the seals protecting their booklets, and get to work on Advanced Placement tests in every subject, from calculus to human geography. These tests show colleges how much a student has learned over the previous eight months. Students who score exceptionally well can even earn college credit for their efforts. As a result, sitting for AP exams can be a nerve wracking experience. The Eagle Eye asked five of North Point’s AP teachers for their best advice on how to score well in their area of expertise.
