AP Calculus AB Study and Discussion Thread 2012

<p>FYI, teacher said the shell method won’t be asked on the exam, so use washer method if you’re more comfortable with that method.</p>

<p>Please no related rates or horrendous cross sections. :(</p>

<p>Good luck tomorrow everyone!</p>

<p>@Above: If you really feel the urge to cram last minute, memorize formulas for related rates.</p>

<p>Good luck tomorrow, everyone.</p>

<p>good luck guys</p>

<p>I thought the test went well. Now we get to wait for our results :(</p>

<p>I thought it was fairly easy, other than that problem about the bird.</p>

<p>What problem about the bird?</p>

<p>Really? I actually thought that was the easiest one D: along with the last one.</p>

<p>i dont know about anyone else but i found the multiple choice challenging but the frq’s were really easy. i solved all of them with relative ease except the first part of the fourth of fifth question. im really hoping for at least a 4 right now lol</p>

<p>I think the non calculator multiple choice was hard…other than that there was like only one free response (i think lol) i didnt get…</p>

<p>how did you think the test went in general? and how will the curve be?
also do you think i’ll get a five…
i guessed on about 7 nc mc and i wasn’t absolutely positive on the ones i did do
i’m pretty confident about the test except one nc fr where i changed my answer right before we stopped and only managed to write down something random to justify but it kind of made sense.
what do you guys think? i’m so nervous!
was this test considered easy so they won’t curve it too much? or is it normal?
D:</p>

<p>i died about 20 times during that test.
mah life.
:/</p>

<p>Hey guys, I was just wondering what the multiplier for the MC section is. My teacher said it would be 1.2 or 1.3ish. Also, do you have any estimates as to what the cutoff score for a 5 might be?</p>

<p>I thought the non-calculator was easy… died on the calculator though… :(</p>

<p>Probably around 66-70</p>

<p>Wow that test was brutal and I was my first ap test</p>

<p>Sent from my SPH-M910 using CC</p>

<p>Hated this test with a passion
Multiple Choice No Calc - Meh, some were easy and some were kinda hard.
Calc - This was brutal for me! I hated this section so bad.</p>

<p>FRQ’s - Thank goodness for #1, I hated #2 since it was harder, #3 was a bit hard, #4 This one was…interesting. I screwed up one entire question because i forgot the negative sign!, #5 was meh, and #6 was okay.
I only want a 3 on this exam. That is only what i am asking for</p>

<p>huh I thought the exam was the easiest thing ive ever taken. Everyone in my testing room was euphoric about it</p>
