IMPORTANT!
This is from the College Board:
Please remind your students not to post about AP Exam content. If a student posts to any form of social media during the exam or refers to unreleased exam content at any time after the exam, their score will be canceled, no retest will be permitted, and they may be permanently barred from testing.

Assignment
LAST POST TODAY:
After the exam, please go to:
Answer the survey on the AP Biology Tee Shirt. Period 4 students feel very strongly that they do not want the definition so if we cannot come to another conclusion, the shirt will have a blank back.
Please rank your choices of back designs. Hopefully, we will have one design on which most students can agree, even if it is not your first choice.
The front will be the plant photosympathizing . . . . .

Here is a site with a question bank, divided by subject matter. They are not very in depth questions, but they may serve to review some learning outcomes.

Hardy-Weinberg review!
A friendly PSA on allele frequency calculations:
Many of you are having difficulty calculating allele frequencies when the question specifically says that the population was NOT in HW equilibrium. You cannot do the calculation using the HW equations in this case. Students need to read the question very carefully to see what the question is asking. T minus 6 days... See attached document.
