<p>Yeah, the test wasn't bad. I left out 5 or 6 on the MC, and I did pretty well on the FR, except for the last question or two on the No calc. I had a very good teacher, and plus I like math a lot. I prepared starting about 2 weeks before the test with Barron's 2008. Basically ran through areas that needed refreshment, and did some practice problems. But, all in all, not a whole lot of prep. I think that it's more important to prepare oneself psychologically than academically for this test. Not that the importance of academic prep is overestimated, but rather that the need to mentally focus one's energy is widely underused.</p>
<p>C'mon guys...of course there's going to be a lot of 5's. Not only because of the generous curve but because of non-response bias. People who didn't get 5's are less likely to post their scores, especially when there are so many 5's already. :-P</p>
<p>i got a 4… =/ i thought i failed thou so i was pretty happy =D hehehe
although my teacher might be disappointed because she rarely has students who get 4’s on the test XD</p>
<p>My teacher was hella hard, anyone who got an A in that class got at least 80% raw score on the practice AP test. (he gave it as a normal test, without AP curving) So i’m expecting around the same high 5 for the test</p>
<p>At my school, BC calculus is the hardest class because it is basically learning a year of college calculus in a semester. It is a lot of work and only the best math students get into the class. I mean at some points everyone struggled. I mean I had a rough patches along the way, especially because I was college visiting for most of the 2 weeks we spent on taylor series. But I worked my ass of in that class and even though I only got a B- in the class, I still pulled out a 5 on the AP. I felt accomplished.</p>
<p>I got a 5. Although I wasn’t really expecting it. I did really well on the non-calculator portion of the multiple choice test, and then not so well on the other part. On the FRQ, I made a few dumb mistakes (such as incorrect boundaries for integrals), and i completely missed every part of the sequences question.</p>
<p>I knew I was on the borderline of a 4/5, and I’m really glad I got the 5 :D</p>
<p>I got a 5. I’m pretty sure I didn’t miss a single problem. I know for a fact that I got 100% on the FRQ and the Multiple choice for me was mind-blowingly easy, I finished really early and checked more than thrice.</p>
<p>1: 3
2:
3: 3
4: 6
5: 57</p>
<p>How come there were no 2’s, but 3 1’s and 3 3’s? Weird. I actually don’t know anyone either who got a 2 on any AP test, but know of some that got 1’s and many that got 3’s, 4’s or 5’s…</p>
<p>Hey, if you studied, did well in the class, and you think you got some questions in the FRQs, and also in the Multiple Choice, there is a chance that they mis-graded your test. You could ask for a regrade if you want. Because somebody I know from another school last year went in expecting to fail completely, without studying, and had a C in the class. He got a 1, but he asked for a regrade. he was not confident at all and reviewed the FRQs and said that he got most of them wrong. Still, his score moved up all the way up to a 3. So, you could ask them to regrade it. It’s 10 dollars i think but they reimburse you if they find an error, which seems likely.</p>
<p>Is it pointless to take the AB test one year if you know that you’re going to take the BC test the next? The BC score comes with an AB subscore, right?</p>
<p>If this helps, I did MUCH better than I expected to. From what I can tell, the AB material is weighted significantly higher than the BC material, because i left 2/3 BC free response questions blank (although I’m pretty sure I got most of the credit on the third one) and most of the MC on series. I got a 5 as my AB subscore and a 4 as my composite score, and I couldn’t be happier :)</p>
