I'm taking the AP Calculus test on Tuesday and the AP Literature test on Thursday. Last year I took the Ap U.S. History test.
As far as the AP U.S. History test, one half was multiple choice and the other half was comprised of two or three essays. A few problems into the multiple choice, I literally sat back and laughed out loud. They were so ridiculously hard that you just had to laugh at your misfortune. The essays were a breeze. Even though I didn't know much of anything on the multiple choice, I still got a 4 (and 6 credits for college.. U.S. History 101 and 102). On the U.S. History exam, if you've heard of whatever the multiple choice question is talking about, your best bet is to make a guess. If you've never even heard of it, you should probably leave it blank, but I didn't leave more than 5 or 6 blank.
Since you're taking one Tuesday, I'm assuming it's AP Calculus too. For me, it's going to be mad easy because my teacher is insanely good. My advice is to make sure you have programs that will do the quadratic formula, Simpson's Rule, Trapezoidal Rule, RAM functions, and the PDF function. It'll save you a lot of time. Also, you can type all the other one's in (like the derivative of sin-1(x)) to help you remember.

on friday our class spent the period taking a practice test and it was pretty difficult. they say that the questions start out easy and get increasingly harder, well i was stumped on the first one....so im not feeling too confident about taking the test. yeah, the question was on some specific shit they probably didn't even cover in the book,i looked through the next few pages and found they were all incredibly confusing. i looked around and most of the class had the same expression on their faces as i did. my teacher said that we shouldn't try to memorize when we study for this test, but focus on the general ideas.......after taking the practice test im pretty sure that general ideas aren't going to cut it.
