Good Luck Studying! Dictionaries and foolscap paper will be available for your use. Bring pencils, a eraser, and a pencil sharpener carried in a CLEAR zip lock baggie. Remember to wear your FULL AGS UNIFORM, or you will not be allowed to write the exam. NO AGS sweaters will be allowed in the classrooms, so wear a long-sleeved undershirt if necessary. Any phones or electronic devices should remain home or in your backpack outside of the classroom. If found on your person, it will be considered a cheating tool. Cheating is unacceptable. Students attempting to do so will obtain a zero on the exam. Studying is a great way to avoid this temptation It will be Ramadan, therefore remember not to have water, food, or gum.
