APUSH was pretty easy except I kinda got mixed up with my dates for the DBQ. Those date constraints screwed me over.
That was really easy but I really dropped the ball on the DBQ. I didn't have get any outside info into it at all like any of the muck rakers or anything.
The only tests I need to worry about really is AP Bio which is on Monday. AP Comp is gonna be easy
I really have no idea how well I did on Euro. Guess I'll find out in July. Fuck it.
I feel pretty good about my Euro test. I know I passed for sure, and I used 11 of the docs for my DBQ, but I hope I didn't make an egregious errors.
[QUOTE=Wealth + Taste;35895128]Anyone take AP Physics B? How bad is it and what is the course load?[/QUOTE] It's a lot of math but with a good teacher (or even a student to keep her in line) you'll get it. I use my $150 TI-89 calculator with a custom menu, the calculator by default comes with ALL constants programmed into it and custom menu makes units proposterously easy to use.,
[QUOTE=Rammaster;35918873]APUSH was pretty easy except I kinda got mixed up with my dates for the DBQ. Those date constraints screwed me over.[/QUOTE] Did we have the same DBQ? Something about industry and change after the Civil war? I don't think I did so well on that, but I nailed the FRQs with my Scopes trial/Prohibition knowledge + Effects of French Indian War.
Ahh I remember AP test week back in HS. I took computer science AB and calculus BC with 4s. Also got credit through purdue calumet and tested out of all my required math classes so I had to take none in college. The best part I remember of AP test week is that you can take the test and skip the rest of the school day/ go out for lunch because attendance is not taken if you have an AP test!
Essays 3 and 4 was the way to go. [editline]11th May 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=ManningQB18;35920607]Did we have the same DBQ? Something about industry and change after the Civil war?

Why does everyone say the free response take forever to do for Comp Sci? I finished mine in 30 minutes, went over 'em for about 15 minutes, and then left an hour early.
[QUOTE=redBadger;35920795]Essays 3 and 4 was the way to go. [editline]11th May 2012[/editline] Mentioned organized crime for prohibition?[/QUOTE] Of course. Modern comparison was to the drug war today. I bet the grader thinks I'm one of those stoner kids that thinks weed will fix the recession or something.
APUSH test was fucking easy. Did two full essays and part of the other, and the MC was a joke
All APUSH test material were the same, nationwide. So we all had the same mp, dbq/free response. Did mine on the presidents for one of the essays
[QUOTE=Downsider;35920815]Why does everyone say the free response take forever to do for Comp Sci? I finished mine in 30 minutes, went over 'em for about 15 minutes, and then left an hour early.[/QUOTE] Same here. Only thing that had me even a little troubled was the consolidate stables method.
[QUOTE=HazeFyer23;35921461]All APUSH test material were the same, nationwide. So we all had the same mp, dbq/free response. Did mine on the presidents for one of the essays[/QUOTE] Wrong. There are several versions of the test, with different questions. However, all those versions are used nationwide. But not everyone even in one school gets all exactly the same questions.
[QUOTE=Ast_risk;35921800]Wrong. There are several versions of the test, with different questions. However, all those versions are used nationwide. But not everyone even in one school gets all exactly the same questions.[/QUOTE] I stand corrected then
Yeah we had the same DBQ. I knew about my economics at the time but I used the wrong time period.when I talked about politics. I was 10 years ahead
[QUOTE=Katamari_Jr;35921512]Same here. Only thing that had me even a little troubled was the consolidate stables method.[/QUOTE] I just created a new array of the new size, then repopulated and reassigned to that one.
[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;35921302]APUSH test was fucking easy. Did two full essays and part of the other, and the MC was a joke[/QUOTE] I thought the MC was fucking hard for me. The essays were pretty easy though..
[QUOTE=PenguinKris;35927258]I thought the MC was fucking hard for me. The essays were pretty easy though..[/QUOTE] I thought it was alright, but the Colonization/Women's rights questions were bad for me. I think there were only 1 or 2 questions that I just looked at and thought 'It could be any of these'. Oh, and I freaked out when they called half way through multiple choice, because I thought there were 120 MC questions, not 80. I was on Q47 and thought I was way behind.
I only had the APUSH test. Didn't study at all, because I was in Germany during the entire review week. I think I did awesome on the multiple choice (Shit's easy), but that DBQ fucked me over, BSed the whole thing. I kicked ass on the FRQ on the 1920s, just detailed a lot about Scopes and nativism and shit, and then I almost ran out of time for my other FRQ (I did C first). So, hopefully, that one FRQ and the MC will carry me to a 3.
I took the AP world history final last year and jesus fucking christ that was hard as shit (hardest test I've ever taken in my life), I went through two trimesters of that class and dropped it, I figured I'd horribly fail the AP exam. Major props to you smart people doing one or more AP class.

[QUOTE=redBadger;35939258]DBQ was easy as fuck, as long as you mentioned the gilded age and robber barons (which I couldn't think of until now, fuck me)[/QUOTE] Well, as long as you go on specifics. I spent the better part of a paragraph talking about Pullman, so I think I'm good there. Still wondering abut AP English, though. I feel as though I'm liable to completely botch the MC if i don't get an almost perfect score.
I didn't remember how many Supreme Court judges there were for the AP gov and still got a 4, writing an essay about them.
What I really liked about AP lit this year was that the multiple choice questions for a passage basically helped lead you to understanding the meaning of the passage, especially for that Grief poem.
gonna go get a 1 on the AP Physics B exam tomorrow I'll probably just answer C for everything on the multiple choice then sleep through the rest
[QUOTE=ShadowSocks8;35947980]gonna go get a 1 on the AP Physics B exam tomorrow I'll probably just answer C for everything on the multiple choice then sleep through the rest[/QUOTE] Why do some people pay for these tests when they're not going to even try? What a waste of money.
