<p>The DBQ was excellent as I was able to incorporate a lot of outside knowledge. Mine was shorter than some: 3 1/2 pages.</p>
<p>I’m already starting to forget what some of them were. Some of the multiple choice were crazy. Number 10 was ridiculous, I had never heard of that in my life. (I guess that’s as specific as I can get without breaking CB rules =/)</p>

<p>Outside knowledge has no bearing whatsoever on your score on your DBQ, sorry to say. This is not APUSH, no outside info needed on Euro DBQs.</p>
<p>I wrote about 4.5 pages I think for the DBQ, then 3 pages for #2, and 2.5 pages for #6. I think I beasted the FBQ’s because I threw in a lot of ID’s. I only studied the night before, but our teacher is really good and has awesome notes. Just studied the notes from all year, and they were just exactly tuned for the AP test. 95% of the people in his classes get 4’s and 5’s on Euro.</p>
<p>CB rules…? Wow, have you seen any of the other threads? lol</p>
<p>Anyways, MC was fairly easy, even though I opened the book, saw the first question, and was like crap, but it turned out all right. Answered 79, estimating 65+.</p>
<p>DBQ was excellent, spent an hour 20 minutes on it though…5 pages.</p>
<p>Question 6 - So easy. Three solid pages - 25 minutes</p>
<p>No idea for the second set of essays. We didn’t really learn that part of history. Made up some BS, filled 2 pages with it, called it good. - 15 minutes</p>
<p>Mike, yes it does. On the rubric to get the “additional” points past the core six, one of the areas is “uses relevant outside information”</p>
<p>Yeah, outside info never hurts.</p>
<p>cia- i think i remember angsting over number 10 too. hahaha. </p>
<p>The quotes on the test were super easy. Loved them.</p>
<p>There was a poem that I was clueless about. Anyone else get that?</p>
<p>5 full pages for the DBQ, I think I did a really good job on it, I had lots of outside info</p>
<p>I did decent on FRQ #3 (wrote about 2.5 pages) but got completely owned by 4-7, I chose 6 but couldn’t remember any details.</p>
<p>I though the MC was annoying</p>
<p>yeah i did 6 too, but the thing is, i only wrote a page and a half because it was hard to go into detail. there were pretty much only 3 main points that i made about it because… that’s all what resulted. lol</p>
<p>I didn’t know you could get three 6’s and 25 mc wrong and still get a 5…</p>
<p>that’s possible?</p>
<p>Depends on the test.</p>
<p>CIA, the one to the poem was on pragmatism. I got that one wrong…I was pretty ****ed, cause I answered Existentialism or something…</p>
<p>Hey, just as a general question, does anyone know how difficultly the essays are graded? According to the College Board rubric, having a thesis that restates the prompt can only get you 1-2 points, but aside from the fact that my thesis was semi-restating the prompt I managed to write 3.5 pages containing a TON of evidence. Will they overlook my bad thesis and give me a higher score?</p>
<p>I wrote five full pages (front and back) for the DBQ, four full pages for FRQ #4, and three and a half pages for FRQ #7.</p>
<p>Quality over Quantity. If they’re 5 pages filled with compelling evidence and (for the DBQ) the documents are interpreted correctly, then that should be a 9. If it’s 5 pages of rambling about something that could’ve been said in half of that… that’s bad.</p>
<p>Did anyone else do essay question #6? I thought that one was the obvious choice for Part C, but I haven’t talked to anyone in my class that did #6… It seems that almost everyone did #7 and I think I talked to one person who did #5… In any case, I nailed/pwned #6…</p>

<p>I didn’t do #6. I did #7 although I had trouble with a part of it.</p>
<p>I did 4 and 6, I’m so glad I actually studied the Reformation and Enlightenment. It seemed a lot of the MC was more recent. I was surprised no Russia and no women. I was lucky I didn’t study those! LOL</p>
<p>MC was easier than I thought, but I didn’t really have enough time to go over the problems a second time.</p>
<p>The first set of FRQ was hard, because I only knew a little from each problem. I chose #7 on the second set; knew big idea and some details& examples; not enough analyzing though. DBQ was descent. </p>
<p>I’m thinking I probably got a 4.</p>
<p>omggg so there were like 5 questions on MC where i was like WTH HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THIS</p>
<p>so i just guessed on those cuz i could eliminate one. hope that goes well…</p>
<p>and then DBQ was easy. i was grateful for that</p>
<p>but i was SO mad cuz i chose 2&6 for free response</p>
<p>and i really shouldn’t have done 6 cuz i talked about the wrong ruler during that period of time. like the ruler i talked about had already abdicated but for some reason i thought he was still there… does anyone know what happens here? do i get partial points? i don’t want a 0 for getting my facts wrong 
:(</p>
<p>They only grade information that you get right, they don’t take off for information you get wrong… or something like that.</p>
<p>really?? that would be so awesome… although i don’t know how much of my FRQ would still make sense haha</p>
