For anyone who has taken AP courses in the past, do you receive a score report along with your score of 1-5 that details your performance?
No, just a number lol
nah, just get a number, which is pretty annoying lol
Wow, I totally missed that axis on the right. I vaguely remember it now but I definitely didn’t pay attention to it when I was answering that.
Was the nutrient question the second essay (worth 10 points)? If so, then I did poorly on the most important two essays of the eight…
Well, you can actually order your testing materials to see how you did but that costs quite a bit of $$$$. Kind of sad to do all that work and just get a #… For all you know you could gotten 100% or 80%
Yeah my high school doesn’t allow us to take AP before junior year, so I’m just hoping my whatever I got on APUSH and my SAT counters whatever trainwreck of a score I got on bio this morning…hopefully Northeastern will understand a finance major does not need to know biology
do they actually give you a score report? i thought you just received your writing portion, not any score or comments
Im looking to be a finance major as well
Personally, I think a mastery of non-finance related things would work in your favor when applying, but if its rly bad just hide it lol
Where would the mussels containing the Lap94 gene be concentrated mostly at? I said site 5 because it had the highest concentration of salt on the Long Island Sound.
I absolutely love AP Biology and I am a current Freshman-- so I was not familiar with the AP format at all. On mini MC problems, I’d do fine but the extremely long ones, I am absolutely terrible at. My aim this year was to get a 4 or 5 (I’d prefer a 5 though.) I won’t discuss the details of the test today, but my time management was so bad that I had randomly filled in 6 MC questions and I didn’t even know the Grid-in (6 Questions) was part of the time period as well. In other words, I didn’t even get to attempt it. Obviously, this is my first AP and I’ve learned from my mistakes, but I’m really nervous as to if it’s possible for me to get a 4 or 5… Does anyone know the curve for this year for a 4/5 and how the fact I couldn’t even attempt the grid-ins will affect this? If I get a 3 I plan to retake it and delete the score before the deadline. Thank you.
Does anyone know how they would deal with this when grading a free response:
On one of the sections of a long free response I made a statement that was incorrect (because I got the terms backwards) but explained it correctly. Would I received no points at all for that section or would I receive some for the correct explanation?
same, i said that they would be concentrated near site 5 due to having the highest salinity. however, i also feel like saying evenly distributed would work in the sense that having the lap94 allele doesnt seem to serve as a detriment in normalized conditions, rather just an adaptation for high salinity that they develop due to being stuck there.
I said it would be near site 5 and also 6,7,8. because all those areas had high lap freq%
Did the question ask us to specify which site? I think I just said that more mussels would be found in higher salinity areas.
i didn’t get that question and what they were asking. the one about how are the adult mussels distributes despite the larvae. Did it have to with something about how they attached the the rocks? i just skipped it.
Well, my only chances of getting a 5 are if they’re very lenient on the essays. Otherwise it’s pretty much a guaranteed 4 because I’m very confident about the multiple choice.
Also, do Prokaryotes cut out the introns or not? I said that they didn’t because they have no nucleus.
also what was the direct source of energy for the one about the dry mass? did the leaves or the root grow the most? i couldn’t interpret the graph well
no prokaryotes do not cut out their introns. they do not even contain introns
Was the limiting nutrient essay worth 10 points? I think that’s the only one I screwed up too badly on.
