• Oh, dear.

10 THINGS TO KNOW • I WATCH A LOT OF NEWS (CNN AND LOCAL NEWS) AND READ
A LOT OF NEWSPAPERS, MAGAZINES AND ONLINE SITES. • I ‘SKIM’ THE ONLINE NEW YORK TIMES IN THE MORNING
AND ‘READ’ THE PRINT EDITION LATER. • THE FRONT PAGE OF THE TIMES IS CRUCIAL, ESPECIALLY
‘ABOVE THE FOLD.’ OBITUARIES ARE ON PAGE 1 FOR A REASON!
• THE TIMES’ FACT CHECKS MORE THAN OTHE PAPERS AND IS OBSESSIVE ABOUT ACCURACY AND FAIRNESS.
• HARD NEWS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SOFT BUT THE TIMES LOOKS FOR THE ODD/UNUSUAL/ WHIMSICAL IF POSSIBLE.

10 THINGS TO KNOW • ROTE MEMORIZATION AND GOTCHA QUESTIONS ARE NOT
MY DEAL. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND MEMORIZATION.
• THERE IS ONLY ONE CORRECT ANSWER. • I TRY AND CORRECT CHANGING INFORMATION BUT AM NOT
INFALLIBLE-‐-‐-‐ WHAT IS KILLING THE BEES IN 2013 -‐-‐-‐ BUT THE RIGHT ANSWER AT THE TIME IS STILL CORRECT.
• NEWS IS NEWS. IRAN TALKING TO THE U.S. IS IMPORTANT FOR THE TEST EVEN IF IT QUICKLY ENDS.
• LISTENING CAREFULLY TO WHAT I SAY, AND WHAT YOUR TEACHER SAYS, WILL INCREASE YOUR SCORES!

Essay thoughts 101
• Think first: Pay anenAon to the quesAon and then formulate an answer.
• Don’t rewrite the prompt. Make your piece flow clearly and smoothly (a page should be enough).
• Develop a plan and outline it quickly. • State your thesis/topic early and provide supporAng informaAon.
• Embrace the opposiAon.

Essay thoughts 102
• It is fine to analyze and interpret -‐-‐-‐ but don’t write an editorial.
• Showing a grasp of current events is a posiAve, not a negaAve.
• Typos and grammaAcal errors are literary killers!
• Make a list of points you want to state if it helps.

MISTAKES!
• No substance; skimming the surface of a topic. • Dealing in absolutes: good/bad; right/wrong. • Editorializing rather than analyzing/interpreAng. • Rambling, repeaAng, ranAng. • Not looking at a variety of perspecAves: economic, cultural, social, poliAcal.
• CiAng the usual sources: anything on the AP English list, quotes from MLK, JFK, Gandhi, Churchill, etc.
• Arbitrarily menAoning Rosa Parks, the Holocaust, 9/11, WWll with no reason.
