AP World History 2011 OFFICIAL THREAD

I didn’t think the CCOT was that bad, the compare on the other hand I did horrible at… I made a lot of stuff up, hopefully my DBQ can save me.</p>

I don’t understand why people are so happy about the DBQ. You can do well on ANY DBQ provided that you understand the documents.</p>

DBQs should only be praised on the AP US or AP Euro exams.</p>

I did horrible on comparative. I made stuff up as well. But the MC was pretty easy. Well easier than I thought it would be.</p>

yes, there was on question where i thought any answer could be right…the slaves in rome one… :(</p>

I think DBQ & MC was alright.
When i saw the CCOT essay prompt…#@#%! but it may have turned out fine…maybe.
and the sim/diff was okay.</p>

im hoping for a 4…maybe? we’ll see.</p>

Everything went better than expected.</p>

I did 2002 MC and thought I was screwed but then I did the 2007 and got much better. I was really hoping it would be as easy as the 2007 and it was but that means it was easy for other people too.</p>

And for the essays I thought I was gonna completely blank out for the CCOT and COMP but I guess the recent studying helped.</p>

Wouldn’t be surprised with a 4.</p>

Overall, I thought the multiple choice questions were similar in difficulty to the 2007 AP exam and the essays became increasingly feasible the more I wrote. By the end, I ended up writing 4 or 5 pages for each essay:D. </p>

There was just one problem though. In literally writing until the last minute, I never got around to actually numbering which essay is which (my proctor was kind enough to take the packet away and not allow me to put the numbers in)–I really hope they still score them, or at least they’re able to tell each essay apart from the other. I mean, if anything they’re in chronological order and have a page gap in between each essay. </p>

So…will the graders score my essays if I didn’t number which is which? (if all those 13 pages of work go to waste… -___________-)</p>

MC - easy
DBQ - very easy, they literally gave u the groupings
CCOT - meh. just had to think about it for a little and figure out the “big picture” for that time period
C/C - very easy. I knew a lot about the Mongols and West African civs</p>

sooooo HAPPY!! because it was soo easy! the mc, the dbq etc!! when i saw the prompt of the ccot I freaked out for a little moment but later noticed that it was common sense ~hahahaha </p>

expect to get a good grade!</p>

I thought i did well. But yeah…my proctor gave us 45 minutes instead of 55, and none of us realized until after the MC portion of the test.</p>

Can anyone tell me what they thought would be a good additional document for the dbq. also, was it okay to use the Mexican official’s wife as a negative view towards the revolution saying that it only benefited some peasants. I even used it for point of view, talking about the sarcastic tone she used at the end. Was that way off? anyone?</p>

I said an additional doc would be about the effects on the 1st world(since in theory, the 3rd world can trade their excess food with the 1st world)</p>

and just out of curiosity, did anyone use zionism for the migrations essay?</p>

@CrazyKi I said the Wife’s account was negative (or at least unreliable as a positive) too because the point of view was slanted towards the elites and the rich and didn’t consider the broader implications of the poorer classes.</p>

garfield, they had effects on the 1st world because the woman said from arizona to mexico, i said an additional document would be a lower class farmer who actually experienced the changes in agricultural production or a lower class women because all of the documents were from upper class officials or organizations</p>

^Not really, that was just people getting rich and then using their money to buy stuff in Arizona. That’s slightly different from growing more crops and trading with the US or Europe.</p>

I also asked for a more global study on environmental impacts, though I don’t think that counts.</p>

Ok,guys are we even allowed to talk about that in here I thought 48 hrs had to pass first or something,or I can just go all out here and tell you everything about my experience with the test :)</p>

for the basic point we had to use ALL the docs?</p>

^All or all but one.</p>

You have to mention all of them but you can misinterpret one.</p>
