Both Classes - AP Physics  Review:
APC 1996-1997 Free Response & 1988 MC
  • Individual students will put a single problem on the board

  • The student putting the problem on the board will then present the problem to the class answering all questions and emphasizing the physics of the problem [15 pts]

  • All other students will submit one randomly selected problem for homework credit [15 pts]

    
Assign: APC 1998-1999 Free Response & 1993 MC for NEXT Friday, April 25!
