<p>HAHAHAHA
yes the vinegar in the eye was QUITE HYSTERICAL lol</p>
<p>it wasn’t vinegar?</p>
<p>but #1 was a stumper to me…and I only missed one in #4. the products, so that’s -2 points, and I am pretty confident I got all of #5 right. I hope that will balance out my bad #1…</p>
<p>I highly doubt that the cutoff for a five goes up that much. I think everyone’s perspective is skewed because everyone here thinks it was simple- but people here make up the minority.</p>
<p>I totally screwed up #1. #2 was average and so was #3, but #4, #5, and #6 were sooo easy.</p>
<p>Edit: sorry for double post</p>
<p>My chem class, which is full of kids who mostly have Cs in the course agreed that it was easy…when someone with a C is confident they got a four, you know its really going to step of the level of the top score, 5.</p>
<p>That’s crazy haha
I had NO clue on number 5 lmao and didn’t have any problem with number 1
but I guess it’s because our equilibrium chapter and test was pretty harddd so I studied hard for that one lol
I had no clue what to do on number 5 because it was just information that I simply didn’t know haha
I think I got 2 points on that one LOL</p>
<p>I definitely thought 2002 was easier than 2008…beta you might’ve thought 2008 was easier if you studied before taking the 2008 and didn’t before taking the 2002 lol.</p>
<p>vince, good point…i try to think of the plurality of people taking APChem that are vastly underprepared to cheer me up hahaha.</p>
<p>^^^^ and trueeee haha
while we all think it was easy (well idk I didn’t haha…definitely easier than I expected nonetheless) there will be lottssss who don’t do well I think lol</p>
<p>Honestly…the exam was quite “fun” because it was so easy. And regarding the “hysterical” question that actually bothered me…do they think we’re ■■■■■■■■ or something? It actually bothered me a little bit that they had such little faith in us. When I read that I was just like I’m not 6 years old…</p>
<p>True. I didn’t study much, only 4 hours…but I took the 2008 yesterday and the 2002 on Saturday. That’s probably the case. I got the same # correct (45) on both, but I skipped more on 2008. Perhaps I should have skipped more today…</p>
<p>I hope we are indeed the minority. It makes me feel better at least. :)</p>
<p>1-ahhh, probably half creditish
2-ok,most of it
3-easy
4-sooo easy
5-easy
6-ok,most of it</p>
<p>damn, if they had asked anything but ksp I would be confident in a 5.</p>
<p>I enjoyed seeing easy questions like the one in reference toward the end…it brought my hopes back up after skipping/guessing on a few toughies. XD</p>
<p>seriously, ilyssa.</p>
<p>anyone wanna start an AIM chatroom to discuss?</p>
<p>lol, yeah i would’ve liked it more if the first question was acid/base titration or any other equilibrium except Ksp…since Ksp is one of my weak spots in chem haha</p>
<p>lol i spazzed when i saw the first free response, so i went on to do 2/3 and when i went back #1 magically made sense!
4 was wayyy easy - i thought i would get like a 2 on that one going into it but not anymore :D</p>
<p>The MC felt really easy, I omitted one. FRQ #1 went well, though there were some…shall I say…odd numbers. FRQ #2 was all right, save for one thing I wasn’t confident in. FRQ #3 I bombed, to say the least (time management issues). FRQ #4: A joke. FRQ #5: Mostly easy, though I felt like I may have skimped on a couple of explanations. FRQ #6: Again easy. I felt pressed for time though, and in making sure to hit everything, may have missed a few points. Estimated score…optimistically 79%/5.</p>
<p>As for the curve - even if this test was easy, I’d have a hard time seeing it go above 108 (72%), especially if it has been so low as 100 (66.7%) the past few years.</p>
<p>lol, yes i got a few…unusual numbers for FRQ #1 as well</p>
<p>about the explanation length, #5 I did completely in 3/4 of a page. my handwriting is neat but not small or large. I feel as if I explained everything enough (just used the terms…what more is there…). Should I be worried that I didn’t blabber on enough?</p>
<p>Last year’s entire FRQ section only included 59 points: 10 pts on Q1, 2; 8 pts on Q3; 15 pts on Q4 (1 pt for products, 2 pts for reactants, 1 pt for balanced, 1 pt for follow-up on each rxn); 8 pts on Q5; 8 pts on Q6. </p>
<p>If the entire thing is 150 pts (since the 75 pt MC is 50% of the score), then the FRQ raw score must be multplied by appx 1.25 to get the entire raw score.</p>
<p>From what I’ve seen I think somewhere in the range of 100-105 is the minimum for a 5.</p>
<p>im interested in an aim chat
