Re: AP Exams
Ahhhh APs:
Calculus AB - Very confident, 4-5 English Literature - Pretty confident, 4-5 again, I started feeling rushed on essays but made it OK. The Multiple Choice part went very well. English Language - Same with English Lit except leaning more towards a 5 All I have left is Chemistry, which I'm still totally mixed about. I feel pretty confident about a lot of aspects, but in others I still feel kinda unsure, which is where studying comes in. I'll be taking the test on March 17 rather than 10th, as I will be at an academic competition all week next week. |

Re: AP Exams
Ditto.
AP French Language - I don't know. I did well on the FR section and parts of the MC, but I did not know how well I did on the listening part of the exam - 3/4 AP Calc BC - 4/5 AP English Literature (aka AP Lit) - 3/4 - Kicked butt on the MC, but bombed at least 1 of my FR's Still to take - AP Biology - Monday (should get a 4/5) AP US Government & Politics - Tuesday (should get a 5) AP Physics C M & AP Physics C E/M - Friday May, 19--(alternate exam because of conflict with AP Biology), should get a 4/5 on both I'm with a lot of the BC people on the difficulty of the exam this year. I'll be making the hasty generalization that the Calc AB exam was easy for everyone here (who took it last year), but our scores are sort of inflated because 25% of the testakers received a 1 on the exam. So, that means that I don't know what the College Board is going 2 do this time. |

Re: AP Exams
Calc AB was really easy, should be a 5 (didn't have to skip anything, and I was able to check all of my answers)
English Lit- I thought this was reall easy, the essays were very simmilar to essays I have written in the past AP chem is all I have left, not 100 percent confident but I think a 3 is possible I really wanted to take Calc BC but my guidence counsellor wouldn't let me even though I know I was ready (I had scored 4 or higher on every practice test I took) |

Re: AP Exams
yay? I get to write all essays next year when i take AP English Lit. Lol.. and the thing is I think i made a 1 (on scale of 0-4 ) on the TAKS a state test..which means i auto fail even if i make 100% on MC,..and i believe teachers get scores this week (or already have them) and so I find out if I have to take some remedial classes to learn how to write the engish essay, and i cant bear stupidity, the only plague of society. But thats my punishment for dozing off...

Re: AP Exams
I only took one this year, and only took one last year.
Last year I took US History, and I got a 4 - which is excellent because it will count for credit at my school. This year, the only test I took was AP German Language - I think I did great on the multiple choice and writing sections, but totally blew the oral sections... I can't speak German fluently while under a 2 min time limit and am feeling stressed out...not my strength. Oh well. I'm probably looking at a 3 or a 4, and a 3 will get me credit (I get progressively more credits as my scores get higher). Even though I am taking AP Calc, AP Statistics, and AP English, I decided not to take any of those tests. I didn't want to take Calc AB because I would have needed to get a 5 (I might have been able to pull a 4) to get credit and I didn't think it was worth the stress. Plus, when I take it next year, it should be a breeze. Stats... just totally and completely sucks. I know how to do each of the processes, but I have no idea why and when to use them (I don't have a great class... AP Stats class is more like AP Slacking class). AP English I have been struggling with all year. Even though I love to write and read, I truly abhor analyzing literature. Pardon the pun, but I find that I just can't read into stories the way other people do. I am more of a scientific thinker and I just can't find myself inferring things about character's intentions and feelings and the meanings of those feelings and the metaphors and... ahhhhhhhh... I hate it. I would have had to get a 5 to get any credit at UM. Wasted $82, if you ask me. So, I will only go into college having taken 2 AP tests which will have given me credit, but oh well. I may also be able to transfer some of the credits I have earned through my school's Tech Prep program, which allows me to earn credits for the classes I take at school through Northwestern Connecticut Community College. However, at this point, I don't know which credits they will accept, and which ones they won't. |

Re: AP Exams
i took the AP Euro test and it was very interesting to say the least... i think i may have pulled off a three maybe four... my class was lucky, we have a young teacher who took them recently and could remember things.. like to study women's history because it may come in handy... im glad i listened.

Re: AP Exams
This year I took 3 AP Test: English Literature, Statistics, and Calculus BC.
English - I think I did pretty well, it just depends on how i did with the multiple choice. Statistics - Once again pretty well other than the Investigative Task Free Response question. Calculus BC - Not so well, should be be better than my Calc AB score from last year though. |

Re: AP Exams
The 4 of us at my school that took Physics C: Mechanics would be absolutely thrilled to get a 3 on it. That's the single hardest test I've ever taken. I don't know if it's really that hard or our class just wasn't very good for it.
