[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has AP World coming up in another couple of weeks. They give them 45 minutes to read five articles, write an entire essay, and submit. It's insane. At the very least, they should be given a full hour or even more. [/quote] My son too!

Of course normally it is 3+ hours with more sections including short answers and a 60-question multiple choice section. If your student’s teacher knows the exam format they should have been doing their class tests in that format and timing several times during the year. CB advises 15 mins to read, 10 to organize the essay and 20 to write. It is just that parents don’t usually [/quote]
