AP Tests

Soo a little while back in May, some of us AP students had some crazy long threads about AP tests, quizzing each other and helping everyone out. How did everyone end up doing?

HAHAHAHA.

AP US History- 2!

I was kind of upset at first because I really want to double major in musical theatre and something else, so I need all the extra college credits I can get, but I guess I just screwed this one up. Our teacher told us throughout the year his tests had stuff that was probably harder than what we'd see on the AP test, but obviously not! Oh well. I'm not majoring in history

AP European History - 3...not thrilled, and go figure the colleges I want to go to are probably not going to accept it. That was an interesting day, I just remember needing to pee during the test, and actually going and loosing precious time. The proctors soooo loved me.

Marlene, I got a 3 on Euro last year (as a junior)... so yay for barely passing!

I did much better this year, though!

I celebrated my 5 in Biology, and was stunned by my 4 in US History, as i don't think i listened in that class at all.

I love how they tell you never to discuss the questions ever again after you take the test, and all of us walked out of the US History one saying "Did you see #2, about Clinton getting impeached? Why wasn't Monica one of the choices?"

I'm looking at AP Comparitive Politics this year, anyone got some advice on this?

Hahah arykahmarye we did the same exact thing - we were all like "but it wasn't supposed to go past Reagan!"

Thank you check your personality!

I took it as a sophmore...AP US for me this year...oh yeah!(Death, because we will actually need to learn real stuff with this teacher) It's a wonder that we passed, the teacher (a complete hottie) spent most of the class time going on a tangent, it wasn't until the last two months before the test where he figured it was crunch time and used the "Smart" board, I think I would have got a 1. I had no motivation to do the written homework because he never collected it, so I basically got a 3 from reading the barron's review book, and retaining info that I thought would help me when I'm on jeoprady. I do know we spent way too much time in that class talking about soccer, AIDA (more so Verdi's opera instead of the bway version), soccer, gays (and guys that were secretly gay), how people from various royal families slept aroung, soccer, South Africa, soccer, South Africa, soccer, South Africa, and feng shui! (Not really feng shui...but I argued that in order the prep for the Global Regents that we also had to take, the only thing we learned about China was like two guys Mao and some early guys, and feng shui!) Fortunately since I was actually interested in this, and I think like 50% of my grade was class participation, and the other half was tests (that were nicely curved) I walked out of that class with a 92! (Which becomes like a 102 when averaged in my report card! YEAH!) That's my long babble about AP EURO! I still insist that I deserve a 4, damn it!

Ooh, I heard Spanish was TOUGH. I decided to pass on that one and just take US (5), English (4) and Psych (5). Did anyone else take psych and think it was ridiculously easy?

Psych was easy? o_0 Well then again the person who taught it probably didn't spend most of the class explaining why it was good to be female and/or asian. (So I heard from my Junior friends) I actually don't know what they got, but no one thought it was easy.

Yeah, the teacher seriously does make a world of difference. I had the WORST Euro teacher ever, hence the 3 on the exam. I had much much much better AP teachers this year and did so much better.

I got a 4 on APUSH. Don't think I've ever been more excited! I did horrible in that class all year so I was thrilled. Then a 3 on Calc AB. Pretty pleased with that one. Then the 2 on Span Lang. Not so happy. It was SO hard though. I wasn't really expecting more than that.

APEURO- 4

I'm taking AP US this year is it hard? Then next year I will take AP English, AP Spanish, AP Chem, AP Euro, and possibly AP Music Theory, so I am freaking out about those.

AP US isn't bad at all... but you can't rely on your teacher to study, you really have to do it by yourself...

which English are you taking, Language or Lit?

[Wormlett]

Posted: 8/8/05 at 12:36am

AP US- 4
English Lang. and Comp- 4

yipee!

I got a 2 on my AP calc and AP chem.

AP chem was so hard... there were way too many questions we had never even done in class. A few he taught us AFTER the AP lol, but whatever, he told us it's suppose to be like a 2 year course and that we hardly have enough time to cram all the information in. Whatever, I did fine in the class and everyone else for 1's and 2's anyway, only 2 people in my class got 3's even and my class actually had a good amount of inteligent kids.

AP calc, well my fault missin that class for the last month or 2 before the exam. It was my only class I had left to take for 4th quarter... and well slept past it half the time lol. So forget the old stuff and didn't learn new stuff.

Ah well, chem I had no chance of passing, and Calc although I could have gotten like a 4 if I didn't miss class... it's not the end of the world. I'm already into a college at least, so whatever... leavin the 3rd... yay!

Well atually, it's kinda sad too, but it'll cool I hope.

I got a 5 on my AP World History Exam. I was like "Uhh, I think they misgraded mine..a 5?! Wow"

I got a 3 in US History, which I can't use because I needed a 4 or 5 for UR, and a 5 in English Lit, which I can't use because I'm gonna be an English major. ^_^;; But I was still proud to have a 5.

I had a really good teacher for the first half of the year in AP US Histry...but then second semester I switched teachers and we didn't really do a whole lot. Ms. Hastings, my first semester teacher, times the entire period so we always had something we should be doing. Ms. Kenny didn't do that. I ended up with a 3 on the test. I really wished I had goten a 4 but oh well.

Next year I'm taking AP Gov and AP Psuch...any one know more about Gov?

Posted: 8/12/05 at 6:55pm

I don't miss the AP tests at all.
