It won’t be it won’t be delayed.
It will be fine! There are people who handle this at the reading, I promise
No credit, dude. Sorry, but you have to address the prompt to earn the points.
Based on last year, I’d say you could get about 20 questions wrong and ace the saq and 5/6 Leq 6/7 dbq and get a five.
@ushera303 If you have at least two pieces of accurate, specific, relevant evidence, and you include additional evidence with inaccuracies, you can earn the first point for evidence but not the second. Tou either earn points or don’t earn them; there is no “docking” of points.
IME, the best you can do if your essay contains inaccurate information alongside solid evidence is 4/6.
@Politsci889 totally different readers for each question.
@history1000 the these must address all aspects of the prompt and go beyond restating the question. There’s no hard fast rule about how many parts it must have, unless the prompt itself dictated it.
What did you guys think of the multiple choice? I thought some were hard and some were easy so about medium? That scares me however because on the released practice test by collegeboard I got 46/55 so on the one we took today I may have missed more than 9…
@lamebridge What was your DBQ on?
Are there two separate readers for an essay question? The score from each has to match correct?
That’s for the SAT. I’m fairly sure there’s only one reader for your essays on AP tests
@steviegee1147 Reminder that we can’t discuss DBQ topics until TCB releases them.
Yes.
Incorrect. The two readers’ scores can differ by no more than 1, otherwise a chief reader will make the final determination.
Anyone know what 2 points they take off if you have only 1 piece of incorrect evidence… I had like 4 other correct ones in my DBQ… [-O<
My predictions
40/55 MC (I had a lot of B’s too)
12/12 FRQ
5/7 DBQ
5-6/6 LEQ
What score does this seem like… enough to get a 5?
@Benji3025 - From what my APUSH teacher told my class, that seems pretty close to the cutoff for a 5. I don’t remember the exact stats for a 5, but it was something along the lines of 39/49 MC (there are 6 field test items), 10/12 for FRQ short answer, and then around 5-6 for the DBQ and LEQ. So, I would say you have a good shot at a 5 especially because of your FRQ.
Do you think it’s ok that I only wrote four paragraphs (2 body paragraphs) for the DBQ and LEQ?
@ssm1002 I wrote 4 paragraphs too, but they were both very lengthy. I like to do one paragraph for change and one for continuity. I had in total for my essays probably around 5 pages
So for the field test MC if you get any of those wrong how does that affect your score for the MC section?
Getting the experimental MCs wrong shouldn’t affect anything at all. I’m fairly sure they just don’t count those.
