Help please! Someone shared an idea that I want to steal but I can’t find it. It was a card of sorts given to seniors with teacher contact info that said something like “redeem for a coffee in the future”. Anyone remember this? Was it you?

Happy AP score release day to all who celebrate. No matter what the numbers say, remember the work you put in and how you grew as a learner and a human last year. This number does not define you. Feel the feels (joy/disappointment/meh) and then go do something that brings you joy

Keep in mind: some AP Exam questions are designed to assess whether you can apply a key concept/skill to a new situation. So don’t panic if your first reaction is, “My teacher didn’t cover this.” Take a breath, re-read the question, and seek to apply what you know & can do.

Remember: AP Exams are worth preparing for, but not worth stressing over. The worst that can happen if you don’t do well is that you simply take the class again in college – no big deal. So prepare and then relax. You’ve got this.
