<p>Our class never even did the thing for FR #4, but i think it was easy to figure out on your own. Somebody drew a smiley face in the circle in our room. :)</p>
<p>FR #2 was the hardest, but the rest were pretty easy.</p>
<p>MC #33 had me confused. There were 2 plausible answers.</p>
<p>FR was a *****!!!!...I had no idea how to do 4 B</p>
<p>yeaaa...about number 4...</p>
<p>MC was kinda hard... some of the later questions really stumped me...</p>
<p>FR was alright.. but I've been looking at the curve and it seems easy enough to get a 4 or a 5...</p>
<p>Aw man... I forgot what each FR was because I didn't do them in order..</p>
<p>Someone drew a smiley face in our room too!</p>
<p>JWs1555--what's the curve? and how do you know the curve?</p>
<p>I thought the MC was easy. Like super easy. I left like 4 blank. The FRQ, ugh I don't ever want to think about it again.</p>
<p>The MC was easy except for some of the lab questions. The random classification ones also threw me off. I left out 2 but I probably should've left out more.</p>
<p>do you think its bad if I let like 15 or 20 of them blank? I want a 5...</p>
<p>****... could I miss 10 mc, get like a 28/40 on the essays [or 25/40] and still get a 5? </p>
<p>I went into WAY too much detail on the first essay and had to rush/half-ass the rest =/.</p>
<p>I think it depends on how many of the ones you answered you got correct.</p>
<p>I think a 5 = 57%, right? Or maybe 67%, not sure.</p>
<p>I saw the curve on another forum, type it into google it will pop up</p>
<p>how is it calculated since they change it to 100 questions?</p>
<p>is it mc<em>0.9 (out of 90)
frq</em>1.5 (out of 60)
and the same scale like previous ones?</p>
<p>besides, do anyone know former curves? (like 90 for a 5, 75 for a 4...etc)?</p>
<p>For some reason, I feel like I got all the ones I answered right, maybe I missed a couple but that's all.</p>
<p>Im hoping for a 65/100 raw on MC and a 6/10 for my essays.. that should be a 5</p>
<p>@yaji- you can easily get a 5</p>
<p>@kennyk616</p>
<p>I think that's right. I got the same thing according to my calculations.</p>
<p>For the 2002 AP Bio, a 90 was the lower limit for a 5. That's all I remember since that's what I'm aiming for.</p>
<p>So, I think I got 4-7 wrong and I skipped 2 (on the nerve diagram). If they scale it the way I did, then I would need only one FR point to get a 5 (90.25) assuming I got 7 wrong! I really hope that's the scale, since (optimistically) I probably got a 10, 9, 5, and 8.</p>
<p>Does anybody know how exactly they curve it? (I'm taking 3 AP tests but no classes so I've had nobody really to tell me about the test or grading procedures.)</p>
<p>We're not sure, but if all they did was scale down previous scales then it should work out something like this:</p>
<p>NUMBER MC CORRECT - (a quarter OF THE NUMBER OF MC wrong)</p>
<p>Take that number and multiply by 0.9 to get MC scaled score</p>
<p>Add up total FR points (there were 40 total with 10 per essay). Multiply total FR points by 1.5 to get FR scaled score.</p>
<p>Add FR scaled score to the MC scaled score you found to find your scaled score.</p>
<p>90-150 is a 5.</p>
<p>Alright, thanks. I understood like the #C-#W x .25= blah blah blah but I just don't understand how the scale is determined. Like, 90-150 is a 5 or whatever. I just don't understand how they figure that out.</p>
