So, You Want to Take AP Government?

The typical AP government course will focus mostly on the 4 branches of government: legislative, executive, judicial & bureaucracy. These branches account for about 40% of the test.

The most challenging component of the test is the four REQUIRED essays. The structure necessitates the triaging of questions, focusing on the question that the writer has the greatest ability to answer down to the essay that produces heart palpitations. Be mindful of the time and BRING A WATCH! Your cell phone clock canNOT be used.
