Reviews
In response to the buyer: I did offer my email and would like specifics as to the issues you are having, which is a legitimate way to offer assistance and help. As I said, I use these quizzes with my own students each year, and have not experienced any issues with paragraphing, so am wondering if there is some other technical issue going on. My apologies if my original attempt to offer assistance came across as something else in your eyes.
I do see that you have amended your previous review after I provided evidence to support the proper standards-alignment of the materials, and I thank you for that, since your first version of the review misrepresented the materials. Now, you have switched your focus to the quiz quality, and I'm sorry that you haven't been fully satisfied with them. I must say that I use all of the quizzes with my own students and have never experienced the issues you have described, so I believe there may be some technical issue or confusion involved. All of the questions were directly adapted from prior AP multiple-choice questions located in AP classroom and other buyers who have left reviews have provided opposite feedback as to the high-quality nature of the quizzes. If you would like to provide me with more specifics regarding your new claims, feel free to email me at 21stcenturylitedu@gmail.com so I can further assist you with this.
I'm so happy you and your students have found the materials helpful and that you would purchase the materials again! Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such positive feedback. Best of luck on the AP exam in May!
