  3. Begin with the oldest material first--re-examine that to refresh your memory of the ideas we've convered already

  4. Once you've refreshed your memories, which topics gave you the most difficulty? Begin the formal review there first

  5. Create a coverage chart to make sure you deal with everything over the course of the next month

  6. Create a time to study AP Psych each day--whether working on the practice FRQs, going over class materials or old quizzes and exams, creating vocab cards, studying vocab cards, doing online practice quizzes from text, using the study book from your text; or some other form of study
