AP Chemistry & the PR

<p>How accurate is the PR practice tests in their AP Chemistry book. I thought the 2nd test was really easy (MC: 61 correct, 11 wrong, 3 omitted; FRQ: 10/10, 10/10, 14/15, 10/10, 5/8, 7/8; Raw Score: 136) and I got an easy 5. The first PR test I barely got a 5 (MC: 55 correct, 20 wrong; FRQ: 8/10, 10/10, 9/15, 7/10, 3/8, 4/8; Raw Score: 108.5).</p>

<p>Do you think it's accurate & my studying has paid off? Or is it inaccurate and I should study some more tomorrow?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for your opinion.</p>

<p>BTW, I'm not trying to brag or anything...I'm just trying to get an honest opinion on whether the tests are easier for me b/c I've been studying like crazy for the past month...or just b/c they are just plain old easy.</p>

<p>Lol, I don't particularly care for PRs tests, but with those scores I think you'll be fine (if anything, PR's a little harder)...you might wanna do a quick review tomorrow, but it's clear that you are definitely ready for Wednesday's exam.</p>

<p>Alright...I'll start to relax now - wow...that word hasn't been in my vocabulary for....oh...about 5 weeks. <em>sighs</em></p>

<p>haha...yeah the PR tests are pretty difficult, although after studying the book they seem a little easier b/c the tests test for facts specifically outlined in the book.</p>

<p>If only my practice scores didn't suck in comparision to yours...i should probably try this "studying" thing everyone is talking about lol.</p>

<p>That's really true...I was workign on the reactions FRQ...I noticed it was all from the chapter dealing with reactions (some were even the same reactions).</p>

<p>btw, this is the only AP exam I'm taking - I have no excuse but to do well (my school is retarded - only 1 AP junior year).</p>

<p>lol I see...chem is my only one this week (just had US and calc last week) so I should be studying, too. I only need to actually study solubility rules, descriptive stuff...the rest is just a review...I think I'll pull a 3.</p>

<p>anyway, good luck scareya.</p>

<p>thanks....solubility rules really help when it comes down to writing the reactions - you can probably get at least one full one correct from knowing solubility rules</p>

<p>yeah...well i figure if i know solubility rules it'll help me with 1-2, and 1-2 will be redox, and 1 or so will be combustion so that's almost 5 right there :)...I think I'm gonna go check some old FRQ's out now.</p>

<p>If you want any old MC or FRQs...I have them all...IM me...and I'll send you it.</p>
