<p>Concerning the MC section… it really does not make sense for CB to ban the discussion of their questions, as it is that during classes, these same questions appear on the practice tests, in class assignments, etc. that are completed during the AP class. I remember that several of the passages (that I unfortunately did not get to until about 3 minutes to go) on one of my exams were the exact same passages that I had completed at an earlier date during the class.</p>
<p>The MC sections are out there for all to see/obtain, so it makes no sense 1) for CB to recycle these questions if they want to keep the test questions secret, 2) to ban the discussion of MC questions and, 3) to tell us, in case of cheating, to contact the Office of Testing Integrity, and then not provide us the OTI contact information :).</p>
<p>If you’re caught, when you get your score report it just states 0 as the exam scores. However, if you’re caught with the Calculus AP exam discussion/cheating, then it just states (1/0), or infinity. Obviously infinity can’t be used by colleges to assign credit, so it provides the same consequence as that of a 0.</p>
<p>If people want exams to practice from, they can just buy them at college board’s website. There is no use in exchanging exams and answers. I am buying released exams from collegeboard.com to practice from.</p>
<p>I was reading the whole IP thing… complete crap. ANYONE can simply reroute through a different IP address, for example, I could reroute through Canada where even if College Board wanted to do something to find me they couldn’t. Also, CB has no proof that anything I’m posting about myself is true… my name could be anything, I could be on any computer in the nation. If the CB was so intent on trying to stop these questions from getting out, and I wanted to really screw someone over, I could make a CC profile for them, post all the FRQ’s and MCQ’s (because I have a great memory) and reroute somewhere near their school, and THEORETICALLY they’d be threatened to have their scores canccelled and be banned from CB? bullsh*<em>. I’m sorry, I’m usully not this vocal, I’m actually very helpful, but this is just horrible. There is almost no way CB can prove their allegations, and if they cancel your scores or ban you, you can sue them because you PAID them to provide a service… that’d be the same as if I sold you a car and you paid me cash, then I gave you the car, then 2 weeks later, took it back. You can argue that as deprivation of property without due process of law (illegal). I hope that no one is fooled by scare tactics, but that’s all this really was. A scare tactic. I also hope this post doesn’t pis</em> off the moderators too much though, because they DO have the power to do something about it :)</p>
<p>hm… I wonder how that guy Tri N got tracked down. I thought the ETS doesn’t have any authority over the Internet. They can’t trace us down since it violates our right to privacy. right?</p>
<p>Keep in mind that for the past few years now, after every SAT, ACT, and SAT II (and APs) consolidated answer lists have appeared on these forums within an hour of the test ending. </p>
<p>I don’t know of any way you can reroute an IP address to a specific location. Also, if you used your own email account to register for the account, you could be traced. I suppose you could use a proxy, but if they were raided (and I 100% doubt that would happen) they would probably just give you up. The only semi-safe way to remain anonymous would be to use Tor.</p>
<p>LOLOLOLOLOLOL On Monday after the AP Gov’t test my teacher flat out ASKED the kids who took it what the essay questions/ troubling MC questions were. I don’t know if he was doing that to bust the kids or what…imagine if the Principal/Superintendent walked in right then (they frequently do) lmao.</p>
<p>well, you could make the arguement that by paying for the test, they have read/agree to the rules and conditions outlined in the booklet they send home, thereby giving consent so…</p>
<p>A senior at my school was late to the AP US Gov test on Monday and while walking to the testing center around 7:39, he Tweeted about getting ready to take the test. The test was supposed to have started at 7:30. The next day, the College Board contacted the principal and wanted to cancel all 181 AP US Gov scores. Thankfully, the administrators explained that the test started late, so no one’s scores got canceled.</p>
<p>Moral of the story: DON’T USE YOUR PHONE. Keep it in your backpack.</p>
<p>To the moderators: Ban threads discussing the AP exams- it should just be advice on preparation and studying- that’s IT! </p>
<p>It’s disengenious for you to say you care about the “innocent” cc-ers, when, they aren’t innocent when they engage in the posts, even by reading them- they still benefit, and that isn’t fair. So, please, just for the sake of everyone on here, BAN THE THREADS. </p>
<p>Plus, i’m sure there a lot of people who do not know about the embargos… so just ban it all. There is nothing wrong with that. </p>
<p>And I’d like to know how they can trace a post back to you… is CC leaking information?? :O</p>
