First off, you shouldn't wait until the last week. As soon as you know you're in the class you should get a Baron's AP Human Geography book. Then set aside some time to completely read the book and have it done a month before the test. While reading, some how make reference to EVERY vocabulary word and EVERY model and concept. Be sure to know different names for vocabulary and who made the models as well, apparently there was a difficult question on the CRQ's in 2008 because it referenced the model's maker instead of the models name. However, it was discussed by a few teachers and students afterwards and those students who didn't use logic to find out how the model referenced by name was similar to the model referenced by maker felt stupid in front of a bunch a friends who used logic. During the last month, do reviews.
You should not completely study by yourself. Make sure to pay attention to your teacher and do exactly as they ask. This way you get the same knowledge twice so you can learn it better.
Another good thing to do is to take a practice test. My teacher had one, so I imagine your teacher should have one also. Once you finish and have the correct answers, go through and "justify" why the answers are correct. This way, you can know why some of the ones you guessed on are right.
The week before the test do a bit of physical activity (although you should do that already anyway :P) and get a good nights rest. The most important night is TWO nights before the test, and the second most important is the night before the test. Don't overload on your studying either. Cramming is not the best idea if you have actually prepared. However study that way that is the most effective for you, but find out that by taking a practice test as serious as the real thing.
Good Luck!

The Five Themes of Geography are a way of organizing the teaching of geography. The Five Themes of Geography are: Location Place Human-Environment Interaction Movement Regions
>>Physical Geography (about the land forms on the planet)...^_^ >>Human Geography (focuses on the study of patterns and processes that shape human interaction with the environment)...^_^
MR. HELP: Movement, Region, Human/Environment, Location, Place
The five themes of geography for Moscow are location (its position on the globe), place (physical and human characteristics), human-environment interaction (how people interact with their environment), movement (of goods, people, and ideas), and region (how Moscow relates to surrounding areas).
It's spelled sophomore by the way. Here's a list of possible AP classes you can take: AP Biology AP World History AP Human Geography AP Foreign Language (level 5 &6 if you decide to go that far) **Foreign language AP classes can only be taken if you've completed levels 1-4 of the language first.**
I have taken AP World History and AP Human Geography and out of those two Human Geography was defiantly the easiest! I take Government and Politics Comparative next year so i can't help you there. Government and Politics is not an AP class, so it will be much easier. I took AP Human Geography last year and am taking AP World History this year, so I can tell you that both require a lot of work. Human Geo is more wierd. It is generally taken by freshmen who have not experienced an AP class before, which makes it even harder for those students. However, it is not impossible. With long hours of studying, I aced the class and got a 5 on the AP exam. World History requires more memorization. The type of work varies a lot depending on the teacher. It is gnerally taken by sophomores, so it is in theory harder than AP Geo.
For each AP Exam, it varies what a 5 means. The score isn't actually based on what percent of the questions you get right, but rather based on how other people do. In other words, the AP scores on a curve. To check last year's curve (which would show you an average of what you percent you need to get correct to score a certain number), you should check AP central on collegeboard for each test!
There are 5 themes of geography 1-location 2-place 3-movement 4-human environment interactive 5- region
The score system for AP testing runs 1-5, with 5 being the best score possible. 5 - Extremely Well Qualified 4 - Well Qualified 3 - Qualified 2 - Possibly Qualified 1 - Not Recommended Most schools will only accept AP credit if you get at least a 3 or 4, sometimes just a 5.
AP stands for Advanced Placement, and is a branch of the College Board franchise (same corporation that does SAT, etc.). AP Classes are college level classes that high school students may take, pass an exam for, and receive college credit for. AP exams are scored on a scale of 1-5 (1=Fail, 5=Highly qualified). Most universities accept a 3 or above for credit.

The five themes of geography provide a framework for teaching geography; they include location, place, human-environment interaction, movement, and region.
Ha! Silly question. I have friends who are way less impresive than you and they have gotten admision to go to MIT. Congratulations!
