<p>The MC was a mess, but OMG that DBQ and those FRQs were so unbelievably easy. Predicting 50-60/80 and 7 on DBQ and 7/8 on both FRQs.</p>

<p>Thanks for the 5 Collegeboard.</p>

<p>I thought the MC was a lot harder than the released ones. I took the 2001, 2006, and 2008 released exams, but this one just seemed alot more specific. </p>

<p>Essays I thought were okay. And my teacher predicted the DBQ, so that made me happy :D</p>

<p>Wow the frqs and the dbq were SO easy. Thank god haha</p>

<p>I did essay 3 and 5.</p>

<p>tinychat for specific discussion so we don’t risk getting any cancelled scores…[u4dng&lt;/a&gt; - Tinychat](<a href=“Live video chat rooms, simple and easy. - Tinychat”>Live video chat rooms, simple and easy. - Tinychat)</p>

<p>I also did essays 3 and 5. Messed up a bit on 3 but destroyed 5 and the DBQ. The MC was a bit tough, but still think I got a 4 or 5.</p>

<p>I though the MC was awful. I feel like I got 50 max out of 80, but I murdered the essays. Pretty sure I got 7s on all of them. Hoping to get a 5 but I’ll be content with a 4. :D</p>

<p>GUYS…It’s DONE.</p>

<p>What I put was that trans-Atlantic trade formed a slave based economy (mentioned plantation economy and John Rolfes hybrid tobacco and less use of indentured servants). Also it formed an economy soley based on making what Britain couldn’t make in the motherland</p>

<p>@TheKongo It was my midterm too! So happy!
It feels great to be done with APs this week, MC was harder than other practices I’ve done, but I feel confident about the essays. I hashed everything out with my wonderful APUSH teacher. I feel great</p>

<p>Multiple choice wasn’t that bad, I think I got 60-70 right, dbq was pretty easy, probably got at least a 6 and for me personally, Frqs were hard. I was able to come up with a weak thesis for both of them and brought in some outside info but I barely wrote 2 pages for them. I did 2-5. Whatever, it’s done. I’m content</p>

<p>That test was so easy…I’m afraid the curve is gonna be a little tougher this year, like mid 70’s instead of low to get a 5</p>

<p>Mid-70s of…what?</p>

<p>hey guys, if I accidentally put that it was john winthrop that perfected tobacco instead of john rolfe, as a little detail in an FRQ, will that affect my score really badly?</p>

<p>Multiple choice was pretty bad…I could’ve gotten anywhere from 55-70 correct so I have no idea what to think. DBQ was easy but I only used 6 documents, but I’d been told you’re fine if you use over half? Is that true?</p>

<p>Anyways, for FRQ 2 I wrote about the Triangular Trade basically setting up the South’s slave and crop industries and how Britain’s trade with the New England colonies was reciprocative (raw goods to GB and products to colonies).</p>

<p>I think I killed FRQ 5. My research paper this year was about Jackie Robinson and how he broke the color barrier and this ignited the Civil Rights Movement, so I used a lot of that in here.</p>

<p>Overall, guessing 60/80 on multiple choice and (if using only 6/10 documents isn’t gonna hurt me) 7/8 on the DBQ, maybe a 6 or 7 on the first FRQ I did and probably a 7 or 8 on my second FRQ.</p>

<p>It was goooood!</p>

<p>Someone needs to put down 10 bucks here.</p>

<p>I felt like I did really good but after coming out of the test room and talking with my friends I realized I made a mistake in the second question about British mercantilist policies… I talked about the navigational acts in description but I called them the Townsend acts which were in 1767. I also mentioned Townsend and accidentally called the molasses act, the sugar act instead but still talked about smuggling so hopefully they can tell I was aiming for the 1600s molasses act… It won’t hurt me too much will it? Confusing the names of the acts and taxes and going a little off time?</p>

<p>@satman111 as long as it doesn’t destroy the meaning of your entire argument, it’s fine. I mean atleast you got the john part right lol</p>

<p>@efeens how long was your frq #2? I literally used the same ideas as you did. My first paragraph was about the production of the raw exports (from indentured servants to slaves). I also talked about the triangular trade in that one. In paragraph 2, I talked about how the the navigation acts repressed the markets for the colonies, and mainly in the south. I also included some o.i. with john rolfe and such. Idk my essay was only 1.5 pages…</p>

<p>Satman111 Yeah, don’t worry. Ap readers are trained to reward you for what you do right, not penalize you for your mistakes.</p>
