Welcome to HiGAP-A! We have created a prior knowledge practice packet to help you be adequately prepared for the HiGAP-A course. This is a very rigorous course. The concepts and skills included in the practice packet are considered to be prior knowledge for this course and will only briefly be reviewed during class. Therefore, ideally you should be comfortable with each of the concepts in this packet before your first day in class. In the words a few former HiGAP-A students about how to set yourself up for success in HiGAP-A, "Take the packet seriously and keep your brain active (You won’t remember what you did last year, trust me).” While not required, we suggest that you do as much of the packet as you need to, to ensure your skills are up to date.

You will also see a document entiled "Advice for Future HiGAP students." Current and former students have put together some thoughts and suggestions to help you be successful in the HiGAP sequence.
