ReplyDeleteThere are 9 steps to composing a research paper. Writing a research paper requires the skill of filtering reliable and unreliable sources. The thesis is the most important part, since it will summarize the entire subject of the paper. Form an outline to set a ‘skeleton’ for your points that will be made. Use parallelism, coordination, subordination, and division. After a rough draft has been produced, revisions are necessary, then the final paper is ready to be typed.

Summary:The Great Depression was an economic meltdown in not only America but also other parts of the world to. It began in 1929 and it lasted until about 1939. It was the longest and most tragic depression ever experienced by the U.S.
Though the U.S. economy had gone into depression six months earlier, the Great Depression had started said to have begun with a the collapse of stock-market prices on the New York Stock Exchange in October 1929. During the next three years stock prices in the United States continued to fall, until by late 1932 they had dropped to only about 20 percent of their value in 1929. Besides ruining many thousands of individual investors, this precipitous decline in the value of assets greatly strained banks and other financial institutions, particularly those holding stocks in their portfolios. Many banks were forced into insolvency; by 1933, 11,000 of the United States' 25,000 banks had failed.

Something new that I learned from the article is that you do not neccessarily have to take an AP course in order to take an exam.
ReplyDeleteIn my case, I will approach this exam like I do any major test. I will study and practice beforehand with my Ap practice packet. I plan on working the most on the timed writing, since I have the most difficulty with writing full essays in a set time frame. I am always most successful when I get plenty of rest and avoid stress.
Nothing really except that people should study some the night before the exams, since that will refresh their minds. All in all, this is exactly what we've all heard about the exams since any student began taking AP classes. I personally plan to learn all of the literature terms before the test and quiz myself on them. And I will make sure that I know the poetry ones as well.

ReplyDeleteThis article was your basic overview of the advanced placement exam and all about it. Since I have taken an advanced placement once before, I was semi-familiar to the processes it described. I plan on reviewing all of my notes from class, going through my AP Lit folder and re-familiarizing myself with things we learned from the beginning of the year which I may have forgotten. I will also be sure to understand how to construct a well-written essay in prose, and all the other ways in which the article prompted.
I didn't realize the time that it would take or the divisions of the time. This allows me to better prepare myself for the time constraints that I will be put under. As for studying for the test, I am going to review many poetry terms because I will be expecting at least one essay asking me to "disect" poems and compare them.
ReplyDeleteI learned nothing new when I read this passage. My AP teacher made me read it last year so I know all about it. Some of the steps are useful though. I will study over key words for the AP Exam.
