ap chem guessing rules...

<p>Wait so is it just like the sats that they take off .25 points for every wrong MC?</p>

<p>how bout the student-produced answer section? can we just write whatever we think is right or do we get points deducted there?</p>

<p>whose feelin confiednet about this ap chem? </p>

<p>ive had minimum time to study cuz til may 5 i was studyin for my sat II, after that ive been tryin to study for AP chem and for my last SAT I comin up in June 2. </p>

<p>Also, Is it true that u have an option of sending or not sending ur AP scores to colleges? cuz i always thought it was on the same score report with ur SATs when Collegeboard sends that to ur colleges. </p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>im not taking the ap chem, but i can answer your other questions.</p>

<p>the ap exams are not on your sat score report that college board sends to colleges, but it does the same thing where if you send one ap score, they automatically send all of them. you do lose .25 points for every wrong MC question. I believe that the scorers can take off points on frq, but very rarely. i think that the have a rubric of things that they take off for. if your mistake is not on that rubric, you don't get credit, but i dont think you lose it either.</p>

<p>the MC you lose .25 pts. But, i am not sure on the FR. I know on BIO, you don't lose anything for wrong answers, you can only get +1. I think its the same on chem. That is weird because one question from 1999 i think was "what formulas do you need to find xxxx...?" and I just wrote a bunch of formulas, and the 2 correct ones were there. the scoring rubric didn't say if the incorrect answers would lose pts. It appears to only have positive points, not negative points.</p>

<p>k thanks guys, if anyone knows the exact curve percentage for a 3, 4, and 5, that would be great, thanks again</p>

<p>i think a 5 is like 63% or something. But, i think it will be lower this year because they changed the test, and i think it will be harder.</p>
