<p>For the 2nd one, were we supposed to use rhetorical terms (metaphor, etc.)? It was so hard to put them in.</p>
<p>I thought the multiple choice was really easy, easier than the SAT reading even. Wrote nine pages, finished both sections with ten minutes to spare</p>
<p>The MC was so easy! I think I did well on the synthesis (wrote 3 pages), and I really enjoyed the topic. I also liked the third one since I had a couple really good literary examples, but I only wrote two pages. The second one I don’t think I did as well in, but I don’t think I did bad on it. Only wrote 1.75 pages though.</p>
<p>I was worrying about time, but I finished both the MC and essay section 20 minutes early o_O</p>
<p>That second FRQ was beautiful, I was dreading the fact that it could be an excerpt from the the 18th century. Luckily, it was right up my alley.</p>
<p>Why does everyone worry so much about length? It’s content that gets you the score.</p>
<p>Stupid question. About half way through one of my essays I re-read the prompt and realized I had to add to my thesis to make it relate to the prompt. I put a little star and added on at the end of my essay. Do graders view this as lack of organization? Will it significantly alter my score?</p>
<p><i>Why does everyone worry so much about length? It’s content that gets you the score. </i></p>
<p>I just feel like if it isn’t long, I didn’t put enough content in >_<</p>
<p>OMG!! So I have been blown away by these AP tests…in a good way!!! haha I thought AP tests were supposed to be super hard. I took AP Am. Gov. and just took AP English Lang and I thought they were reallllly easy. I know I got a 5 on gov, but with lang I think I most likely got a 4. I was astonished at the multiple choice. My practice MC made the real thing pale in comparison. I had four questions I wasn’t sure on. Assuming I didn’t bomb my essays, I feel I have a good shot for a high score. Let’s pray my five AP tests next year are as easy as these. 
haha</p>
<p>globe trotter. you’re in trouble. they probably won’t know and will give you a 2 for a missing thesis,</p>
<p>well you missed the entire point Helvetica</p>
<p>well, if you only wrote a paragraph cld_1992, most likely you’ll get a 1 for one paragraph. sorry, but expect a 2 or lower.</p>
<p>You’re worrying me, seadog. My thesis wasn’t necessarily incomplete to begin with, but I just felt like I could add a little bit. My star had a little bubble saying, “see last page of essay.”</p>
<p>Free-response rk33? are you sure you took the right test?</p>
<p>MC was really easy, there were maybe 2 or so that i narrowed down to two choices and had to take a guess</p>
<p>synthesis essay i did really well on, the wording of the rhetorical analysis prompt was kind of weird i think i did average on that, and average for the last one</p>
<p>hopefully a 5…</p>
<p>“well, if you only wrote a paragraph cld_1992, most likely you’ll get a 1 for one paragraph. sorry, but expect a 2 or lower.”</p>
<p>Wait, what? My shortest essay was almost two pages <_<</p>
<p>What score do you think I can get if I got 50/55 on MC (no skipped), and a 7 on one essay, 3’s on the other two. Chance of a 4?</p>
<p>^ how do you get a 7 on one essay and 3’s on the other 2? lol, to get a 3, you need to write like…idk half a page or something</p>
<p>i thought the MC was easier than previous released exams</p>
<p>the first and third were pretty easy, while the second one was…interesting/unusual</p>
<p>I’m not really sure how they grade them, I just know my synthesis question turned out much better than the other two. I had more to right about and the difference in diction between that and my other essays was like day and night. My other essays were pretty bad with a lot of repetition, worse diction, and only 4 paragraphs (page and a half in length).</p>
<p>Does anyone know if the essays are weighted equally? Or is it like the APUSH, where the DBQ counts more?</p>
<p>i took a barrons practice multiple choice last night… 33 right and 22 wrong.</p>
<p>today, i feel like i got every single one right. I mean 55 out of 55. am i being overconfident? all the questions seemed soooooooooo easy!!!</p>
<p>essays… my first one was amazing… 7-8 quality… second one i got wrecked on… the structure and grammar and mechanics and such were okay, but the content was absolute GARBAGE… i am hoping for a 4+ on that one… and the last one i feel like i did well on it but i was rushed so my examples were relatively weak to what i could have used… and werent explained extremely clearly… im thinking 5-7…</p>
<p>5 material u guys think? or is that pushing it?</p>
