APGov: Biggest E.C. Opportunity of the Year!

This Saturday at 8am the W-L Social Studies Department will be hosting an AP Mock Exam in the school cafeteria.  This exam is your opportunity to experience the administration of an AP exam before you take the real thing next month.  If you choose to take advantage of this opportunity, you will earn 3 points added on to your fourth quarter grade.  For example, if you earn a grade of 77 in the fourth quarter (normally a C+) your grade will be increased to a 80 (a B!).

The exam takes about three hours to administer and you'll be out the door and enjoying the weekend before noon!
