FRQ Strategies
✍️
Show All Work
Graders award partial credit for correct setup and reasoning even if the final answer is wrong. Never skip steps.
📝
Justify Answers
When asked to justify, reference specific theorems (MVT, IVT, FTC) and connect conditions to conclusions explicitly.
🔗
Answer Every Part
Each sub-part (a, b, c, d) is scored independently. Even if you can't do part (a), attempt parts (b)–(d).
📐
Units & Context
Include units in applied problems and interpret results in context. "The rate of change is 5 gallons/min" beats just "5".
⏱️
Time Management
~15 min per question in Part A, ~15 min per question in Part B. If stuck, move on and come back.
🧮
Calculator Setup
In Part A, show the integral/equation you're computing, then state the calculator result. Never just write a number.
