Design, analyze or critique a specific experimental methods Identify connections between major content areas

The Free-Response Questions Unlike many other History and English AP exams, you do NOT need to write a formal essay with an introduction, thesis, and conclusion. However, you may NOT just make a bulleted list of facts or create an outline. You will need to write complete sentences that provide the specific information requested in the various parts of the FRQ.

SODAS S pace – leave 1-2 lines between each paragraph; easier for readers; gives you space to add more info O rder – answer the various parts in the order they are asked; keeps you more organized and makes it easier for the readers; each paragraph should begin with a topic sentence that indicates which part of the question you are answering

SODAS D efine – definitions alone will not score points but they show knowledge and can help support your response; underline key words A pply – absolutely essential to apply your answer to the specific scenario; do this for each individual part of the prompt; it is repetitive but necessary

SODAS S ynonyms – you cannot explain a word by using the term or any part of the word; for example “Modeling is when someone models another person’s behavior.” - this does not demonstrate any knowledge about the concept
