Mr. Smedes, I don't know what I would have done without you. I had to self study for APES, and the Ultimate Review Packet and your videos saved my life. I felt great after taking the exam. So thank you. Thank you so much for everything you do, for guiding so many APES scholars and making the subject interesting ❤
Hey Smedes, thank you for everything you do. My teacher is good but she really doesn't help us with understanding content. I put off studying way too long due to track and field, but your videos helped me prepare in the last couple weeks before the test. I still think I'm cooked, but I'm hoping for the best. Think like a mountain, write like a scholar (just like kendrick did). My exam is in an hour.
@NoahFernandes-by4zo that's the only part that terrifies me I can't believe on a science test they won't give us a reference sheet for the math. Also I gotta review the carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, and technology plates and other ocean stuff
genuinely could’ve walked in without ever taking an environmental science class and gotten a 5 using common sense Wasted a lot of time studying for this when the real issue is tomorrow’s APUSH exam lol
I was wondering if storing information/equations on your calculator would be considered a form of cheating? I have been researching and looking through College Board’s rules and can’t find anything that suggests it is not allowed. I just want to triple check. Thank you for all your help!!
How essential is dimensional analysis. If I do all of the same steps that are in the dimensional analysis but one at a time will i still get points? Like for example if a question listed this as the correct setup to get full credit: 220,000m^2/1,100,000m^2 x 100 and if my answer was done in multiple steps like this 800m^2 times 275 = 220,000 m^2 x times 1,000 lots = 220000m^2 x /100 times 1,100 m^2 = 220m^2 and 1100x/100 = 220m^2/1 1100x = 22000 x = 20 -> 20% of each lot (correctly labeled) would i still get credit for the "setup" portion or do i need to erase that and make it look like i did a dimensional analysis setup from the start on the exam
Good question! You can do the calculations however you like, so long as it's reasonably clear to a reader (exam grader) how that setup produced the correct answer. Dimensional analysis isn't required, but it is a method a lot of students have success with.
Sorry you're having this issue! I just checked and it seems to be uploaded correctly on the website. I was able to access it with my trial account. Have you figured out how to access it by now?
Make sure to do some retrieval practice (self-quizzing) as well! You can use the practice FRQs at the end of each video, released FRQs on AP Classroom, Quizlet sets, or the Ultimate Review Packet if you have that! That really ensures concepts stay in your long-term memory.
Hey my apes teacher says she knows you and your videos! Was wondering if you knew someone named Mrs. Kaidy (apparently she did some part in an apes textbook too)
Thanks so much! That exam was cake!! I’m even feeling a 5.
Yeah it felt pretty good

dawg it’s in 1 hour i’m cooked 😭😭😭😭😭
@@AnakinBlitz how do you think you did now that you took it ngl feel like I got a 5
@@mikeythegoat4478 MCQ was easy imo, but i ran out of time in the FRQ, especially the math one
Chat is this the heimler of apes?
Mr smedes are the Nitrogen cycles steps in order? if yes can you please list them out in order
What are the formulas from the units that are a must know?
smedes the goat 🐐
The exam was way too easy lmao it was like middle school level general knowledge
genuinely could’ve walked in without ever taking an environmental science class and gotten a 5 using common sense
Wasted a lot of time studying for this when the real issue is tomorrow’s APUSH exam lol
@@phi1688 I actually didn't take APES at all. Just used Smedes and some Khan Academy videos
yea i’m kinda suspicious 🤔
Can you upload the unit nine and five frame review?
soo sadly there was a storm in my area...and my county closed. So now I have to makeup the exam on the 22nd 😭

t minus how many mins till 2024 frq solutions drop?
Why don’t you have unit reviews after unit four?
They're in his ultimate review packet I highly recommend it u still have time
Yeah it’s really good
You’re doing Gods work bro
me. smede’s might not be pregnant but he never fails to deliver 🗣️🗣️🗣️
HAHAHAHHA
Will you post the live review videos? Because I have an exam Wednesday and can’t watch 1st one
Yep! They'll auto post under the live tab as soon as StreamYard finishes processing them.
it won't let me open the pdf for the 1 week review guide, is anyone else having the same issue
Sorry you're having this issue! I just checked and it seems to be uploaded correctly on the website. I was able to access it with my trial account. Have you figured out how to access it by now?
@@Mr.Smedes Yes, I've got it now, thanks so much!!
ive been writing donw paper notes on every single unit and its taking me so long but im reatining the concepts

i have NO idea what im doing
Get the plan in this video and start with steps 1-3! That will at least make sure you're familiar with the FRQ format. You got this!
gonna lock in maybe i’m not cooked
Hey my apes teacher says she knows you and your videos! Was wondering if you knew someone named Mrs. Kaidy (apparently she did some part in an apes textbook too)
add a kahoot in the live review pls
Good idea! Will do. What units?
@@Mr.Smedesyou should do the units with the most weight on the exam please 🙏
@@Mr.Smedes deffos unit 9
@@Mr.Smedes every one
@@Mr.Smedes maybe like a single kahoot for each video merging all of the units in the video in one kahoot
im cooked )': this will uncook me though
ngl this vid finna help me maximize my studying time. gl

My apes teacher only taught us until Unit 5 so i needa study the rest of the units in 3 days…
Should’ve started earlier, our teacher only went unit 6 but I started studying a couple months b4
@@vortexfitness44bro how my teacher got through like everything
