curriculum note
This video was recorded for the 2020 modified AP exam, which had only one timed essay (no MCQ section). The current AP English Language exam includes multiple FRQs and a full multiple-choice section, so references to 'one essay,' 45-minute total time, and 'typing for the first time ever' reflect an outdated exam format.
