Say a question tells you to give two ways so and so can happen. If you give 3 or 4, but only get 2 right, will you get full credit?</p>
<p>I think they will look at the first 2 you write, and grade it on those</p>
<p>Seems kind of odd. Does anyone else have any insight on this?</p>
<p>Government graders are especially told to only look for the correct answer. Now, don’t bite off more than you can chew, but if a question asks you to list an example for something and you can think of 2 but aren’t sure which one would work, its okay if you put both down, they’ll grade the correct one. Again, don’t bite off more than you can chew.</p>

<p>My AP Gov teacher is also an official grader, and has gone to the College Board convention things to grade the FRQs for the past five years or so, and he told us that they will give you points for any two correct answers you have no matter if your other answers are incorrect. Therefore, if you are unsure on an FRQ, or just want to be certain that you will get points, it might be a good idea to list say three reasons rather than just two for a question of that type.</p>
<p>Thanks guys! Feeling much better about the exam now. </p>
<p>That gets me thinking though, what about definitions?</p>
<p>I thought as soon as there is a wrong answer, the whole answer becomes invalid</p>
<p>Definitions should be as specific as possible to recieve ur points because u need to say certain things to get the points…</p>
<p>Just go with your gut response. I’m studying too, and I’m not going to go over the limit</p>
