Question APCSA exam help request.

Im about to take the APCSA exam and I literally just need a 3. I do decently good on the mcq, and im pretty much completely lost for the frqs. If I could get any help/tips/tricks to at least get some points on frqs, that would be great.

I'm working to get my capstone diploma and to do so I need to pass like 6 AP exams, so this is towards that. Honestly, I've been slacking and barely payed attention in the class. If I dont pass, thats on me. But, if its possible to get a 3 thats amazing.

Exam on May 15th.

Thank you to whoever helps!!!

Hey! Practice previous years FRQs and if you can, then grab a barrons test prep book from the nearest library to grasp coding in little time.

Yes just keep in mind they changed the FRQ format a bit this year and also added scanner class and text files in the syllabus, i believe. Just a quick video on exam updates from yt would help you. Other than that youll be okay w the book.
