- read the question carefully and figure out what you are being asked to write
about; focus especially on the key terms that define your task (define,
discuss, explain)
- organize your ideas and briefly outline your essay before you write
(approximately five minutes)
- write the essay; it should have a brief intro (one or two sentences that
restate the question), the factual information, evidence and examples, and a
conclusion (one or two sentences).
- most AP essays have several parts-make sure you answer all of them
- support your answer with specific examples and evidence
- if time permits, reread the essay and make sure you have answered the
question fully
- don't try to "fake me out" with ideas that do not answer the question
- do your best!
