How To Succeed
AP Environmental science is an interdisciplinary class, as it combines nearly all of the sciences and applies it to our daily lives. The key to succeeding in this class is to comprehensively read the textbook chapters assigned. Before a test, make sure to thoroughly reread all of the chapters in the textbook that are going to be tested; although the textbook always goes in-depth and is very time consuming to read (often much more in-depth than what you will have to know for the test), it is essential to understand the fundamentals of each concept to do well on tests. In addition to critically reading the textbook, you should review the given study guides and Ms. Thomson's lecture notes before a quiz/test. If you utilize these studying techniques and you turn in your homeworks on time, you are on the path to success in this class.
