AP Chem Panic!

<p>Hey guys </p>

<p>Im taking AP Chemistry this year as a senior, i've heard how hard the exam is! and how difficult the class can be! even though i had the most horrible teacher for regular chemistry i decided to take it this year so i wont panic in college!</p>

<p>I really need someone to put in words how hard the class and the exam is! im already stressed out about the class cause i literally know nothing about chemistry!
:(</p>

<p>but i've taking IB Bio! i kinda know how much work i have to put in but i dont know if its going to work or not!
Anyone with experience please do help :)</p>

<p>the amount of work all depends on your class. in my class, the tests were hard, but there were sufficient labs and quizzes and, i hate to say it, planned absences that made the class relatively easy to do well in. there was also a significant weight.</p>

<p>the test, on the other hand, varies by year. sometimes the MC is hard, sometimes the FR is hard, sometimes both are, it depends. recently the trend has been below-average difficulty MC and significantly difficult FR. in ways it is a crapshoot because a topic you might be good with could come up or a topic you struggle with could come up. on the whole, the chem exam IS extremely difficult, though there is a hefty curve to make up for that.</p>

<p>good luck!</p>

<p>If you know what you are doing it is not that bad.
Out of all the test i took last year it was the hardiest, but out of 10 i would give it a 5.(i got a 5) tough it is no APES it is not that hard. If you have not noticed this sit is one big hyperbole(12 ap test a year with 5 s on all of them,every on has a 36 on the act,)</p>

<p>IB Bio or any Bio is utterly useless in you’re attempt at Chemistry. Chemistry is a whole new animal. Anyway ask the instructor for help until you understand every concept and study thoroughly! Good luck! You got this!</p>

<p>I took AP chemistry during my junior year and i’m going to be a senior. AP chemistry does require a lot of studying. If you’re not strong in math/ chemistry, you might want to spend some time on it. I thought i was alright and i was so lazy that i just cramped all the topics a few days before the AP exam and got a 3… I still thought the class was interesting.</p>

<p>At my school the teacher for Ap chem is a MANIAC … i mean like she is the the demon of chemistry … all who enters her class is doomed for failure … but thts my school … but since thts the case at my school … im taking it at my loca community college :D</p>

<p>Thanks everybody for sharing info :)</p>
