AP Chemistry can be very challenging, but students often take the wrong approach. They take a brute force approach, give up hours of sleep, and practically cry blood. Instead, the AP Chemistry exam rewards students who take an approach that is "smarter, not harder." Students tend to do best on the AP Chemistry exam when the work to understand the concepts instead of just memorizing and when they can see the big picture. This allows them to see shortcuts and other, easier ways to solve problems. It also allows them to be clever. Here, we'll look at some examples of what it looks like to be approach an AP Chemistry problem by working "smarter, not harder."
