I felt confident going into the AP test. I feel like I was prepared well.
What was effective was all the practice timed writings and getting feedback on how I did. That allowed me to pinpoint bad habits in my writing and fix them, as well as discover what I was effective at and allowed me to be confident about those things and use them more.
What I would have liked to done more of would be to have more focus on the time aspect of the writing. That was the only thing I was worried about on the test, if I would run out of time or not. I think there should be more emphasis on the time portion of the writing, and not let us edit/take it home as much as to put more focus on getting our ideas out and well put in the appropriate amount of time. I would suggest this be more implemented later in the year, after students have had the extra time to write, to explore and develop their writing without the stress of time until later.
