AP Calculus AB & BC 2013-2014

<p>@College123college I did not use a prep book (I honestly think those are scams, for the most part) but our teacher was a grader for many, many years and gave us TONS of old AP questions. These were VERY helpful. They’re really easy to find and I honestly felt super prepared.</p>

<p>When we get our scores back in July, what will we see? Will it just be our score 1-5 or will they tell us a more detailed report on what sections we missed etc
I was hoping that I will be able to see which specific questions that I missed. Is that possible?</p>

<p>The only information you’ll receive is your overall score (1-5) and your AB subscore (1-5), if you took BC. Sorry. They really should release more information - a test should be about more than a single grade, no?</p>

<p>Since scores are released by geographic location, and the west coast is first… would any CC’ers mind helping the people who have to wait till Wednesday July 9th for their scores? If this is kosher to ask on CC… probably isn’t. But I figured I’d ask just in case.</p>

<p>@Chromium meaning logging into your account from their California computer? I highly doubt that would work.</p>

<p>@BassGuitar Essentially… yes. I did it for someone last year through a different social network, and it worked. She just changed her password to some random combination, then I logged in and took a screenshot of the page and sent it to her. Then she naturally changed her password to something else. </p>

<p>@Chromium Whaaaat? That is cray. I would never do that though unless it was a friend or relative that lived there since your cb account is serious business. Why would they lock users out from seeing their score based on their IP address?</p>

<p>@bassguitar Well, they release scores by geographical region, as seen on the apscore.org website. I’d be pretty skeptical of doing it myself. I’ll probably end up using a proxy server to make it look like I’m in California.</p>

<p>@Chromium That’s a solid idea. I’ll definitely be doing that. </p>

<p>Is there any way to know like what percentages correct would get what score?
APTrevor just posted the % of each score, but I want to know the % correct to get each score.
BC Exam btw. </p>

<p>They only release that information when they release exams. The most current one can b found on APpass.com. You may be able to get that information if you tweet trevor.</p>

<p>For those of you thinking AP exams are graded on curves check this out,</p>

<p>Its from the Official APTrevor, Trevor Packer, Collegeboard head of AP Programs. He says AP exams are <strong>NOT</strong> graded on curves! What do you guys think about that?!</p>

All that means is that they won’t fail American (non-native) kids for taking a language with so many native speakers in the pool. Find the percentage w/o natives, and it will probably be closer to the percentages of the other tests. Other non-language tests are essentially on a curve; percentages are generally consistent every year.</p>

<p>Yup, and the BC standards for a 5 (I guess instead of a curve) are pretty good since 1/2 the people who took it got that score. Even though I know I’m very competent in calc, I still worry about getting a 4…am I just being paranoid? lol…</p>

<p>I am ready for my score. Hoping for a 5. I felt confident after the test, but in nervous now </p>

<p>Just saw my scores! 5 on AB and 5 on BC :)</p>

<p>Well I disliked AP calc ab but got a B and B+ for both semesters. Next year will definitely be a struggle because I’m not sure if I pulled off a 3 on the AP Calc ab exam. Will find out for sure in a week. 8-X </p>

<p>Got a 90 on the AP calc final though, in comparison to my D+ on the midterm. Safe to say you understand more as you go along.</p>

<p>There is definitely a curve for the AP exam. My teacher said if you get 33-37 points out of the what 80-something (idk) that’s most likely a 3 depending on the curve. But hey she was a bad teacher so who knows. Her passing rate is in the 80s.</p>
