<p>Are Make Up Exams Really Harder??</p>

2

<p>Form B on the APUSH is harder than form A in my opinion. Check out the FRQs and see for yourself.</p>

3

<p>Form B isn’t the make up test. Notice how Form B and Form A have both been released for 2009 tests such as BC Calc. Form B is the international form.</p>

4

<p>yea, i’m taking about whether the late tests offered are harder (not form B)</p>

5

<p>like what happens if you’re sick, would they really give you a harder make up exam because of that?</p>

<p>I was told the material isn’t harder but the graders are more picky. Instead of working through a pile of hundreds of exams they only have a few so they don’t get tired as quickly and nitpick every little detail. </p>

<p>APES and Chem are during the same time so I had to do APES as a makeup. I decided to do that because APES would be the easier of the two</p>

<p>Aren’t late exams and current exams all graded at the same time during 1 week in June or something?</p>

8

<p>O… well do they put the late exams in the same pile as the normal exams?</p>

9

<p>From what I’ve heard it seems like a coin flip. Sometimes its harder, sometimes its not. There is a seprate curve for the makeups however, so it should not effect you significantly.</p>

10

<p>is the separate curve for the makeup usually worse?</p>

<p>and to megnificent: do you think your APES grade would’ve been any different taking the normal test as opposed to the make up test?</p>

11

<p>i dont think late exams and regular exams are in the same pile because taking late exams = late scores, so ur late exam score wont be available by jul 1</p>

12

<p>If the late exams are graded the same time as the regular exams, then why does the CB suggest that the scores for the late exams may not be available until August?</p>

13

<p>^ why do international students get the harder versions?? is it because there are higher expectations for them?? are they scored more leniently??</p>

<p>pigs<em>at</em>sea, I think pollkfg is correct. It’s a coin toss, sometimes it’s harder, sometimes it’s not.</p>

<p>I’m a little nervous; I have to take the APCS A makeup exam…</p>
