<p>My teacher isn’t really preparing us well for the vocabulary part, i don’t think. So far, we’ve done the basic music notation and intervals. And then we’ve spent a lot of time on composition (chord rules, like double the root, etc). But in terms of the vocabulary, I’m so clueless. Will I still be able to get a 5 on the AP exam without knowing the vocabulary, assuming I answer correctly all the aural parts and the composition parts?</p>
