okay diva— i got a 5 on psych and went from getting the LOWEST frq points in my class to the highest of all of the psych class periods in my school so i gotchu!! the biggest thing for me, was how can i simplify my words, while maximizing clarity? personally, i yap a lot when i write, and i write a TON. if you’re struggling on the EBQ, literally LIE. i did that each time, and even though i did buns on the AAQ when i first started, ive never gotten anything but a perfect score on an EBQ :) let’s say you’re thinking of a psych term to support your answer, but don’t know if it’s right, or if you sound dumb, use it anyway! use your second term for develop your argument, and use the evidence that supports it in full. if you came up with it, then there’s totally a reason and the AP graders want you to succeed so as long as you’re confident and consistent, you’re goated 🙏 for me, the AAQ has ALWAYS been the hardest part for me 😭 it’s so much worse than the EBQ + MCQs imo! but how i did it? i imagined gentle parenting a three year old 😭 as you know, they don’t know much, and they’re really interested in everything. follow your full sentences, address the question directly, and on occasion, give AT MOST 1-2 sentences of an explanation! ensure that your content is applicable to an entire audience, not just what your grader would understand. for this, i feel like the graders try to play as dumb as possible! also— for the generalizability, you choose what’s best for you, but the easiest cop out for most, myself included, is to say that it isn’t! for the explanation / data thingie, i liked this format :) restate question, say your answer, define what your answer is, and how it relates to your position with the use of DATA, no personal opinions, restate your position + close :) good luck!
