Ap physics 2 equation sheet
I would feel far more comfortable with the Math I (my SAT math score was competitive, but not so great I think I’d want to take a more advanced one–that could lead to disaster, especially considering I’m only taking pre-calc this year, so I’m not confident I’d have all the skills I’d need to address the Math II test). I know that the info page about it states there is no preference between the two tests (math I or math II), but… does it really make no difference which one you take? (If you guys who are already accepted don’t mind telling) what subject tests did you take? Speaking of panic-worthy math tests… I was wondering about the SAT II math subject test required for applying to MIT. So Douglas Adams? So long, and thanks for all the wit. (Learn to recalibrate your brains: that’s awesome.)
#AP PHYSICS 2 EQUATION SHEET HOW TO#
Every time I glance down at my hand it seems like I suddenly remember how to breathe.
During one memorable week (I believe it was while planning for CPW last year, and around the time of my famously long to-do list) I must have re-inked the fading message on my palm at least twice a day for 5 or 6 straight days.Īnd seriously? It works. If I was having a rough day, or knew I had a hard pset or tons of work in general, I’d grab my pen. I even took to writing my mantra on my hand during particularly stressful periods in general- with or without exams. He seemed to think it was kind of pathetic, actually.) (Despite the fact that I was always sort of afraid that a TA or professor would notice ink on my palm and think that I was trying to cheat, only one professor has ever noticed and said anything. After freshman year, fewer classes allow equation sheets, so I started writing it on my hand before the exam. Every equation sheet I’ve ever written for an exam at MIT has had those words written across the bottom. So on the back of my index card, after writing in all the last minute derivatives that I never bothered to memorize, I wrote myself an important message in what I hoped were large, friendly letters.” Quoting myself from a blog entry freshman year: “Considering my track record in math, I figured I’d need reminding that stressing out over tests never helps anyone during my last 18.01 exam. So right from freshman year, I came up with a plan to help me to stay calm and ward off test-taking anxiety. I never had any kind of test anxiety or anything like that. I used to be really good at taking tests. The AP Physics 1 framework included in the course and exam description outlines distinct skills, called science practices, that students should practice throughout the year-skills that will help them learn to think and act like physicists.Remember that epic pset I told you about? Well, a few days after that pset was due, we had our only exam in that class (Sustainable Energy). As always, you have the flexibility to organize the course content as you like. The AP Physics 1 framework is organized into seven commonly taught units of study that provide one possible sequence for the course. The framework also encourages instruction that prepares students to make connections across domains through a broader way of thinking about the physical world. The framework specifies what students must know, be able to do, and understand, with a focus on six big ideas that encompass core principles, theories, and processes of physics. Based on the Understanding by Design® (Wiggins and McTighe) model, this course framework provides a clear and detailed description of the course requirements necessary for student success.
