Roger's Briefing

On the FRQ portion of the AP exam, every prompt uses specific Task Verbs to signal exactly what you are supposed to do. Here is the dirty secret: most students ignore them. Do not be most students. Read each verb card, crush the mini-quiz, and earn XP like it is your part-time job. Roger believes in you. Woof.
