AP World Choices

Today we discussed the Four Noble Truths of Gautama and moderation as a means to attain Nirvana (or enlightenment). Tonight you have an opportunity and the gift of time to take advantage of it!  You may, if you wish, compose an essay in response to the question you did not write on the exam.  You will want to pay close attention to the construction of the thesis statement to include the time period; the fact that you only need one similarity and one difference; that you should have four pieces of evidence to support those; and don't forget to say why! Use the score guide on the test to help yourself out.  If you choose to re-write the essay, I will, when it is accompanied by the original test, re-score that section for a new grade.  If you choose not to write the essay, that's fine too.  Look at the amount of work you have to do, and make your choices.  The re-write and test are due at the start of class on Friday.  If you don't have the original test, I won't accept your essay! BE WARNED: the desire to get a better grade may cause you suffering...
