 “I have three AP exams at Paly and one at Gunn High School this semester. I know the exams will be tough, but I think I’ve prepared enough during Semester 1 to the point where I can get to a four or a five, but I’ll definitely continue to lock in.”

 “For AP Lang, I think I made a good choice taking it. I’m a little stressed, and it’s also right after prom, so I feel like I won’t have a ton of time to study for it. I just want to get it over with, we just had tons of really annoying writing prep. We have lots of practice essays in class and also some assignments outside of class. I feel pretty prepared and feel like I know the content pretty well.”
