Ok guys, we're in the final stretch! Below are the due dates for the remainder of your review prior to next Tuesday's AP Exam. It is essential that you complete all of this work to an outstanding standard and use next weekend very wisely to focus your review on your areas of weakest recall and understanding. I highly recommend you use the Pomodoro technique, which is supported by cognitive neuroscience, as we (who were present) practiced today.
Remember: practice makes permanent (in memory), and highly focused deliberate practice, spaced over time, is best! Cramming only uses working (short-term) memory and doesn't transfer knowledge into long-term storage.
