      IRC Nickname: Dnovelta Group: Emeritus Posts: 2750 Member No.: 130 Joined: January 20, 2008 Total Events Attended: 137    | Does anyone know where I can find some good last minute bits of information. What I mean is something along the lines of lists of hormones for Biology that are involved in the endocrine system, or the list of constants and equations for Chemistry. My teacher in Biology is a fucking idiot and is all like "There is no way you're going to know everything on the exam so we should just learn what we can well, and you can use that to help you with the questions you don't know." I agree to an extent, but the fact is he won't even try to even expose us to the rest of the information. He won't teach us, and it's just fucking annoying. He comes to class without ANYTHING prepared and comes up with **** on the spot. I'm literally terrified of this exam because we don't know half the stuff because he doesn't know the stuff himself, and can't teach for his life. This is his first AP class, which isn't something you can hold against him because everyone has to teach their first AP class, but this is also his first high school class. He's a middle school teacher and his first HS class is an AP class? Bullshit. Sorry about the swearing...but I'm pissed. --------------------   |

The AP test is general knowledge on the subject(in the AP area of learning). Just know the basics and cram well w/ a good nights sleep and ull do fine. --------------------  |

I can't help u a whole lot there but goodluck mate. Btw hormones for endocrine is barely a key part of the test. I would try to know some of the hormones secreted from Ant / Post Pituitary glands and Parathyroid / Thyroid, etc. -------------------- That's Mr. Glennfase to you. Ex-Warlord/Council  |
