AP GOV 2014-2015
Review Assignments for AP tests
Regarding review: If you keep up on this by doing some every day, it is a very manageable review schedule. If you leave it to the last
minute it will be stressful and you won’t get as much out of it. I DO NOT ACCEPT LATE WORK.

Review Assignments for GOV 2014-15
I.
Comp review chart: this chart allows you to compare the 6 countries in categories that correspond to all of the required acorn
concepts. If you are not sure what a concept (column) is, make sure and figure it out. You may do this with a group. Keep in
mind that the more you do yourself, the better you will learn it and select your group well since you are relying on your group
members to do it well.
II.
Taking vocabulary tests US and Comp Gov: You must achieve a 90% on vocabulary tests. If you are not in class on the day
of a vocab test, you must write significances for ALL the words (pick up words on the day you get back). If you know you
will be gone on a vocab day, you may take the test in advance. The tests will be given on the days listed on the calendar on
the back. If you get 90% on that day, you turn it in. If you don't, you keep the test and you must write significances for ALL
of those you missed and turn them in, along with your original test by Friday May 8.
III.
