2010 AP United States History Discussion

<p>same here… i thought it was incredibly easy, just like comp gov was last year - way easier than i expected</p>

<p>Yes it was really easy!! There were a few i wasn’t sure on but overall it was easy. I think I might have messed up my second essay though… Are we allowed To discuss or no?</p>

<p>I was stressing over this exam so badly, but it was pretty freaking easy! Well, sort of. I literally never read my textbook this entire year, and finished my “AP Crash Course” book yesterday evening. Needless to say, I wasn’t super prepared. Either way, I think I did pretty well.</p>

<p>You can discuss at your own risk. Read the “defying the CollegeBoard’s rules” thread.</p>

<p>I didn’t get a chance to write a conclusion for my DBQ :frowning: but my points in the essay were excellent. Will not having a conclusion hurt my score considerably?</p>

<p>Hey guys,</p>

<p>I thought the FRQs were pretty easy. I incorporated a lot of outside info into one of them. However, I included 1 sentence that was out of the time period… I thought it fell in the time period given but I was like 40 years off :… How much will this hurt me?</p>

<p>MC and short essays were ridiculously easy. DBQ was a bad topic imo, pretty hard to incorporate good, factual outside info. I contemplated
not writing the last essay after how easy MC was.</p>

<p>I didn’t like a lot of the multiple choice…</p>

<p>Are you kidding me?!? That was the WORST DBQ they could have given us. I’m not going to say much but I didn’t like it at all. Everyone in my room groaned or gasped in horror.</p>

<p>MC was normal imo. Educated guessing wooh.</p>

<p>^ Yeah the DBQ was definitely the hardest part. Everything else was a complete joke.</p>

<p>yeah…MCs are sort of easy this year.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>25% of the test, say what?</p>

<p>I don’t usually say a lot on here but I have been reading. The DBQ was the worst possible DBQ they could have gave. There was not a lot of outside information that could have been put into a DBQ like that.</p>

<p>Anyone know what the curve will be?</p>

<p>I really didn’t like the DBQ topic, but I think my essay was alright. There were only a couple documents I could not find any use for.</p>

<p>Yeah, any curve predictions? I have no idea.</p>

<p>The MC sucked!!! I guess that’s what I get for staying up until 2:30 am cramming crash course though xD I think I did surprisingly well on the essays though. Hoping for at least a 4 on the exam.</p>

<p>Lmao I hated the DBQ, it was so gay… I couldn’t incorporate any outside info. My teacher specifically told us to NOT worry about any DBQ question on THAT topic because she was sure they wouldn’t put it on there and look what happens -_-</p>

<p>hahah yeah the DBQ was kind of eh hard to incorporate outside info… but I was hoping it’d be over that. like I literally told my friend before we took it that I hoped the DBQ would be this particular topic because I spent forever dissecting it last night. so I’m pretty satisfied with my DBQ… </p>

<p>I kind of bombed the second one… forgot the order of events lol :)</p>

<p>the MC was okay- much easier than I was expecting it to be, but since I basically stopped reviewing last night around WWI in the REA APUSH book, I was kind of screwed for everything beyond 1915… </p>

<p>overall, it was much much easier than I expected it to be, but I think I just got lucky. ;]</p>

<p>On the other hand, our teacher told us that the test writers liked that topic…</p>

<p>Good thing I knew a little bit about it…</p>

<p>Now what are we supposed to do? Have a life?</p>

<p>Eh, I’ll probably get an average grade on the DBQ just for the fact that I analyzed most of the documents and wrote 3 pages. I’m such an idiot. I blanked out on the 1st question of Part B… it was SOOOO easy but I couldn’t think of any support until after the test -_-. Can’t believe I didn’t write about that one… easy 7-9 points right there.</p>
