Key points from q& a's with ap readers corrected
Notice that it’s
YOUR position!
  Also, readers
want to see all
 three types of
     ways to
    integrate
 sources (think
research paper
   notecards)
Notice that the Chief Reader stresses that HIGH-
SCORING ESSAYS focus on issues surrounding a topic—
 and the student’s claim about those issues and their
  impact on a community. This is what can be done
           regardless of the synthesis topic!
Pay attention to the fact that saying something is
 “good” or “bad”, no matter how fancy the diction,
   will impress the readers. They want to see the
 impact and ramifications of the issue based on the
information at hand from the sources to make your
                       decision




                                           Notice that they don’t want to see
                                                SUMMARY, QUOTE, OR
                                            PARAPHRASE WITHOUT YOUR
                                               ARGUMENT: Can you say
                                                      “because”?
I hope you see a pattern here: if you don’t
   address the issues, only restate the info
from the sources, don’t develop an original
claim, or use a five-paragraph formula, you
     will make them think you are NOT A
    COLLEGE-LEVEL THINKER OR WRITER!
                OUCH for you.




                                Now it’s time
                                to put the 5-
                                  paragraph
                               essay where it
                               belongs—in an
                                grave labeled
                                   “FAIL”!!
Rhetorical Analysis
                       Notice that if you apply the SOAPSTone, you are
                         halfway there on addressing the prompt; the
                      second half depends on explaining how the writer
                      achieved the purpose. The rhetorical terms (unless
                      specified in the prompt) don’t drive the response:
                      recognizing how a writer develops a claim should.
Argumentative Essay   You have a problem if you completely
                       misread the prompt: adversity and
                           advertising—read carefully!




                                                      Do you see how
                                                       this prompt,
                                                        similarly to
                                                    synthesis, requires
                                                     you to examine a
                                                          broader
                                                       perspective?
The lesson: don’t frighten your AP
Exam readers with your freakiness!




                                       Remember that ONLY on a prompt like
                                     this can you use 1st person “I” and ONLY in
                                             one detail of one sentence.
Again, they
 DON’T LIKE
   THE 5-
PARAGRAPH
 FORMULA
I hope you see that just STATING your stance
(agree, disagree, or qualify) on the claim is not
 sufficient—you MUST connect your examples
    (evidence) to your stance on the claim.
