<p>No, the first one was purely AB.
I didn't learn #6 - I taught myself BC (school only offers AB) and that last one, after trying to understand it over and over, I just couldn't... At least PR couldn't get me to.</p>
<p>"Oh come one, it wasn't that bad."</p>
<p>It's pretty bad if you're considered the dumb one in your BC class...like me. </p>
<p>I can memorize equations all night...but when Im asked a question where I need to use them...I just go blank!</p>
<p>I thought #6 was kind of similar to the one in those test some years ago. It's not that strange. They have given that one before.</p>
<p>Questions 1, 5,6 were typical Free Response Questions.
If you know what you're doing, they shouldn't be that hard.</p>
<p>The other questions, on the other hand...</p>
<p>To fhqwgads2005:</p>
<p>Three of the questions on the BC exam are exactly identical to three of the questions on the AB exam each and every year, and accordingly, they don't use "only" BC topics.</p>
<p>similarly, i believe there was a close-to-BC-level FR question on the AB...</p>
<p>It's up :D</p>
<ol>
<li>a. 37.961831 b.1871.19 c. 243.32354</li>
<li>a. 8264 gallons b. whenever g>f (0,1.617), (3,5.076) c. 3-> 5126.59</li>
</ol>
<p>i definitely did not get 5126.59 for c. but i got the same answers for question number 1 and 2b. don't remember what i got for 2a. now off to my calc iii final which i am probably gonna fail bad!!!!! vector calculus sucks!</p>
<ol>
<li>a. 11.196664?(omg, i think i did this one wrong on the test, i outside of the circle)
b. -1.732051
c. .5</li>
</ol>
<p>(oh this is just me doing it now... so it is .. very possibly wrong)
okay, i'm getting bored now...</p>
<p>for 3b.) i also got - root 3. but i totally guessed so i dont know if its right.</p>
<p>i got .5 for 3c. YAY! I did that without a calculator, because I ran out of time and they told us to put our calculators on the floor. I went to part B and then went back and got 1/2, but I thought that was totally wrong.</p>
<p>i knew right off the bat how to do number 1 because I never divided this year into AB and BC topics. Our teacher told us that we would get a few of the same. We did a lot of the old free response questions which almost every year there was a question that asked for the area, volume, etc. I forgot how to do cross sections, though. I took the integral of the area, which was 1/2pi*r^2, but I think I got the wrong answer.</p>
<p>I think I only got 2a out of the entire second question.</p>
<p>I got most of #3, except I memorized the derivative formula for polar, but I didn't think we had to use it. I forgot about it. That was stupid.</p>
<h1>4 I got right off the bat. I thought it was really simple.</h1>
<h1>5 I also got. I taught myself Riemann sums the night before the exam.</h1>
<p>Did anyone else put "less than" for 5d? I drew a picture showing how the derivative was concave up and when you took the right side Riemann sum, you are losing some of the actual area.</p>
<h1>6, oh wonderful 6. I was out the entire week we learned about Taylor series and remainder theorems. I think I got the right derivatives though. I memorized e^x, but I didn't know how to transform it. I actually did, but I thought I was wrong, so I ended up finding the derivative by using the product rule ten million times. I had no idea for b and d. I definitely got b wrong, but for d, I wrote "You take the absolute value of the next term and it should be less than 1/200." Hopefully, they'll give me some credit. I missed that entire lesson and never had time to make it up.</h1>
<p>Haha how good is the curve on BC? Because I absolutely screwed up the entire series problem </p>
<p>I was in a big rush and left out "1" at the beginning of the series...so missed a. Integrated that series so missed c. Had the wrong series for the limit, didn't plus in and just just l'Hopital 5 times (horrible) and got wrong answer. Then didn't understand error thing. Oh, and my series said e^-1/2 was negative xD</p>
<p>Haha musikalgeek I ran out of time on the calculator on that section too! Except i did y = rCOS(theta) and derived it... So i got the wrong answer for y, but rite for x? Heh</p>
<p>MC was definitely easy tho - I missed at most 5 (I felt confident about all but like 3, and i confirmed those with my friends, but prolly missed some due to stupid mistakes). Think I can get a 5?</p>
<p>Could someone estimate my score please?</p>
<p>MC - I got ~38-40 correct with 3-4 omits
FRQ - I got 1a,b - 2a,b, and quite a bit of c, nothing for 3, half of 4, all of 5, and none of 6</p>
<p>...yea... the FRQs kicked my butt</p>
<p>Oh... and for 5b... we were supposed to use the approximated value from 5a right???... or did we have to find the real value?</p>
<p>tapedDuck, you got a 5 (raw score ~72.8)</p>
<p>Thanks Yatta!.... and what's the cutoff... is that a comfortable 5 or barely a 5???</p>
<p>It is sorta borderline, but you do have some leeway. For the 2003 exam, the cut off was a raw score of 64.</p>
<p>I'm having doubts about that... that means I got 35 FRQ points!... I can't have</p>
<h1>1 - ~6 pts</h1>
<h1>2 - ~6 pts</h1>
<h1>3 - 0 pts</h1>
<h1>4 - 5 pts</h1>
<h1>5 - 8/9 pts (probably made a simple error - always do)</h1>
<h1>6 - 0 pts</h1>
<p>TOTAL ~ 25-26 pts = AP score of 4</p>
<p>or is the raw score multiplied by something?</p>
<p>raw score = FRQ + 1.2*MC, so</p>
<p>26 + 39*1.2 = 72.8 which is a 5.</p>
