@yeyyey97 oh my goodness same! I didn’t get to the grid-ins and I didn’t even finish half of the frqs. I answered the first two and the I skimmed through the rest and only answered like half of each, if that. It sucks because it was a really easy exam but I just didn’t get to finish. Hopefully the curve will be generous!
@yeyyey97 i feel you dude. i was so pressed for time on the multiple choice that i bs’ed through the grid-ins and put random answers on the 5 questions before the grid-ins. on the free response i learned my lesson and went through it lightning speed but i’m pretty sure i wrote complete nonsense, lol.
I didn’t finish at least three or four questions total (parts of questions I guess) and I never did well on the grid ins in class so to pass would be a miracle.
@nolasaxman Excuse me, I thought it was easy an I’m pretty sure I got a 5, definitely no less than a 4. Speak for yourself.
GUYS ITS FINE. STOP WORRYING ABOUT IT. ITS OVER. RELAX. WE CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT IF WE CONSTNTLY FRET OVER HOW WE DID. JUST FOCUS ON YOUR NEXT EXAM.
@barbriallen omg yey at least there’s someone tht understands me!! :’) yess i hope the curve is on our side
@guanlinzhou thnxs
@CollageWhat at least u put random answers! I hope u get them right!! i didn’t learn my lesson and missed the frqs too…and the ones i did answer are bsed so…haha may the curve be on our side!!
@letmeseetheworld at least u answered them! 3-4 left blank is not tht bad! I had more than 10 in total!!! Ahhhhhh :’(
@bobobobo214 yea true…whts done is done
guys if u guys have more APs I wish u luck!! I have AP WH on my way :’)
Does anyone know the cutoff for a 5 on last year’s AP Bio? I heard that for 2013 it was like 79% and last year was like 76%? Does this change every year?
@yeyyey97 I’ve got whap coming up too. May the odds be ever in our favor
@TheTennisNinja Good luck!! I hope the essays are on easier topics wht score are u hoping for?
@yeyyey97 at least a 4
If you missed like 10 MC and you get the following scores on the free response: 5/10, 9/10, 3/4, 4/4, 3/4, 3/3, 2/3, 2/3. Is that a five?
I think that would be a 4 or 3
Hello, all. I have been chatting with my AP Biology teacher, kind of as a year-in-review type discussion now that I have taken the test. This was her first time teaching AP Bio and we used the Campbell textbook (9th edition), but does anyone know if there is any textbook that has been written/updated specifically to suit the new curriculum? We both felt that Campbell was just a little too much for the new test. It was very detail oriented whereas the test is not at all. I couldn’t find anything about an updated version of Campbell in the works or even another textbook written since the new curriculum came out. Thanks, folks!
@ChemFire085 If you only missed ten questions on the MC, then you most likely can get a 5. However, the 5/10 on the long FRQ may hurt you a bit and you may have gotten a very high 4. Just a heads up, you can miss 30 questions and do decent on the FRQs and still get a high 3, so don’t worry about it,
my teacher is going over the frq tomorrow or Thursday and I know it’s going to be painful like a knife slicing through.
@TopOne At least your teacher’s going over it with you. But aren’t the solutions posted 2 days after the exam on the college board website?
@TopOne
I can relate to that feeling Those FRQs are going to haunt me
ye it’s coming out tomorrow but if it is late, then we can look it over on Thursday. He is making us redo the frq section and he will grade it himself. @_@
How did you feel about the MC though? Literally everyone in my class said it was a joke and that it was so easy but I felt like it was ok… I expected more content questions which would’ve made me move a lot faster.
@ChemFire085 that is essentially an 80% so I would say that is a 5
