<p>So I just took the AP Chem exam (well like a month ago) and I really think I bombed it. This was my 1st AP exam so it would be really helpful if other people who took the AP Chem exam gave me some feedback on how they thought the test was! Thanks!</p>
<p>I believe I got between 4-3, only studied for a week and a half. The first question on the free-response section threw me off, I didn’t expect a lewis drawing question to be there, but, nevertheless, I got it right. (fyi: AP Chemistry is the first chemistry course I have taken in high school.) It was also my first AP exam.
Overall the I think the exam was okay, not too hard, not too easy. Remember that this is the hardest of all the AP exams.</p>
<p>I’m guessing that I got a 4 or a 5.</p>
<p>I thought it was one of the easier exams that I have taken. I expected something harder than that based on previous years’ free response questions.</p>
<p>I feel I got a 1. I just blew the Free response. Even though I took normal chem a in 11 and ap in 12</p>
<p>AP Chemistry was alright. I expecting a 4 but most likely a 5. The MC was more difficult than the FR. Number 2 FR almost screw me until i realize it was a feasible question to do. By the way, AP Chemistry is my first year chemistry course.</p>
<p>enwenw16, i’m sure there is an ap chemistry 2009 discussion thread, just search for it</p>
<p>Yeah, Jason2009 I totally know what you mean. I think I got a 1 also.</p>
<p>I took the exam last year and I got a 4. I basically bombed the reactions - for sure only got one reaction correct. </p>
<p>If you did relatively on the FR minus reactions (helped me a ton) and did okay on the MC, you should be looking around passing range :)</p>
<p>I never got the hang of those reaction things.</p>
<p>Well, compared to AP Physics the previous day, AP Chem was a PARTY! I got really … creative… with the free response lol.</p>
<p>Everybody should come back in July and post how they did.</p>
<p>I better have gotten a 5. I really want it.
A 4 is okay.</p>
<p>i plan to take this course in my senior year [will be a junior next year] From what i heard the test is more focused to the practical use of knowledge. </p>
<p>Is it true that the Princeton Review is the best book for the course?</p>
<p>Princeton is good if you want a quick summary of the stuff you learned in class, but if you are self-studying (like I did) get a college chemistry textbook. Princeton is a good review but covers nowhere near the stuff on AP.</p>
<p>By the way, I think I totally bombed the MC but I think I did better on the FR and reactions. Anybody else think so too?</p>
<p>^^^Yeah, I feel the exact same way. I am hoping for a 5, but i know that I should get at least a 4.</p>
<p>blast to the past on this particular forum but…</p>
<p>AP chem is pretty ez…i really messed up the FR and got a 5. but the MC, i felt like i got every question right…lol</p>
<p>i think i got a 4,5</p>
<p>but i did a lot of self studing</p>
<p>Every question right on the MC, aa6590? I thought the questions on the MC couldn’t have been harder! The entire test, I thought was very laboratory-based. Lucky for me, since I self-studied.</p>
<p>BTW I am really hoping for a 5 but probably not going to get it. When I told my honor’s chem teacher that I was going to take AP chem this year he said that I could at BEST get a 3. I just really wanted to show him that I could do it, but I think he’s going to win anyway. =(</p>
<p>For anyone who took AP Chemistry as their first high school chemistry class, how was it? Was it really hard to learn everything and keep up with the material? How did you feel on the exam? </p>
<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>to further expand on what tsubomi is asking, what math level were you in when you took ap chem?</p>
<p>I was in precalculus. I never took an AP Chem class, sorry tsubomi1993, but I do think the MC part was easier than the FR, but overall pretty challenging. Other people say that AP Chem is one the hardest APs. I’ve only taken one AP so far so I wouldn’t know.</p>
