AP English Lang: It's done

 That's right; today I took the AP Lang exam that is now fully digital at 8am. 

 

I'm glad it's over. It was undeniably a long test. By the end of my second essay, I was drained. For the sake of myself, I'm not going to talk entirely about the content of the test (don't worry I will once scores are out). My responses were kinda ehh.

 

It's actually hard to write a good essay in 40 minutes, especially when the clock is ticking and you've never seen the topic before. The challenge, for me, comes from thinking from the nooks and crannies of my brain for examples I could use for the argumentative essay or details I could use for the synthesis essay to further expand my argument and be "sophisticated". But really, it can be hard to come up with things to say (even if you know you've got them in you somewhere) when you aren't familiar with the topic. Plus, sometimes the prompt is a little vague, so I don't know if I'm really answering the question 100% correctly. 


Either way, what's done is done, so there's no use stressing over every aspect of how you did right now since nothing you do is going to change it. I'm glad it's done, and I'm also glad APUSH is over. APUSH, if you're wondering, wasn't that bad.
