AP Physics, 4

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation

<p>I got a 4 on AP Physics C NM exam. I studied pretty hard for it; I know I got between 55-70% right on the Free Response (after review of the packet after the exam). And on the MC, I left 5 blank and of the other 30 I felt pretty confident on all but 3-4 of them. I know a kid who also got a 4 on the exam, and he didn't study and wasn't proficient in the material. </p>

<p>I know the curve is pretty lenient, so I was a bit concerned about not getting a 5. Is it possible that I just got a really high 4 and he got a really low 4? Or should I contact the board to check it out-rescore?</p>

<p>Eh, I thought I got a 3 because I didn’t really know the material as good as I would’ve liked and didn’t do that well on MC, but I ended up with a 5… So idk.</p>

<p>Dude you got a 4 which is pretty good. Just move on, so what
if some people can achieve the same thing with less effort.</p>

<p>that’s how i felt about apush last yr…life sux</p>

<p>Actually if you feel like you should REALLY get a 5, then ask for a rescore?</p>

<p>Chances are rare for an improvement in scores after a rescore. Others who scored a 4 and studied a lot would probably feel the same, and even feel indignant towards people who, apparently, did not study.</p>

<p>Dunno man, I thought the curve was super lenient. You know that FRQ that asked to label the forces? I didn’t even put normal and instead put centripetal, lulz. I got the same score. On second thought, maybe this means that you should try re-score.</p>

<p>I want to say that I got about the same amount of the FR as you, but I can honestly say that I guessed on about 10 of the multiple choice and got a 5. So either I got really lucky, or you messed up on some of the ones you though you knew.</p>
