Common Misconceptions and Exam Strategy

Misconceptions to Avoid

• Don''t confuse Key concept 1 with Key concept 2 — while related, they address different aspects of Expressions & Operators.
• Key concept 3 is often misunderstood — remember its precise definition for the AP exam.
• Make sure to distinguish between similar-sounding terms; the AP exam tests precise knowledge.

AP Strategy Moves

• When you see questions about core concepts, start by identifying which key concept is being tested.
• For free-response questions, always define the term first, then explain with a specific example.
• Use process of elimination on multiple-choice: if two answers seem similar, identify the precise distinction.
• Connect core concepts to broader themes in AP Computer Science A for higher scores.
