<p>I'm curious to see how everyone scored versus how they thought they did. </p>
<p>Multiple choice MURDERED me. I left no blanks and went through the entire exam three times. The essays I thought were pretty easy even though my last one I'm sure was awfully redudant (about gentrification), and the second essay I described push factors instead of pull factors. </p>
<p>But, somehow I got a 5. I am no longer an AP exam virgin and in the best way possible, lol. Woohoo.</p>
<p>I self-studied; I had a personal interest in the subject so it wasn't too hard. Got a 5, expecting it... I thought both sections were really easy. Funny, I can say that same thing about the third essay question - all I talked about was gentrification too.</p>
<p>hawaii.... congrats on self-studying it! Few questions since I'm going to be self-studying Micro and Comp Govt this year.... how early did you start? Oh, and I'm just curious : what textbook did you use?</p>
<p>I almost think it'd be easier self-studying it than doing what I did. I was quick to realize that the subject was so broad and studied EVERYTHING, on top of actually taking the class. I had two textbooks, the Barrons book, and a few other supplemental materials. While I'm obviously satisfied with my score, I almost think I was studying from too many sources and confused myself sometimes.</p>
<p>Longstanding Interest in it, self-study, used Barron's and then read up on redlining, bid-rent, and devolution (not mentioned in Barron's) just in case they were on the test, and we know what happened there. Multiple choice were pretty easy: the few I was quite unsure about were definitional where I wasn't familiar with many of the words. The free-response was a little worse. I'm not sure if the formation of the USSR counted as supranationalism, but I'm not complaining. And for the third question one part almost got me, but all in all, Human Geography, Environmental Science, and Psychology are good "virginal" AP exams, so to speak. AP Lite, haha . . .</p>
