Human geography should be easy, but not for me at all!! I have read PR 3 times and BR 1 times and I can get less than 10 wrong on MC on practice tests of both books. But I just don’t know how to do well on my FRQ. I always misunderstand questions and answer in a way that is very different from the rubics. For example, in a question that asks me to describe factors that have led to the concentration of households headed by females, I wrote all about why females stay at home while males go to work but the rubics focus on “concentration”.
Also, there are many FRQs that I just don’t know how to start with. I can only get 3 or 4 points or even less on some questions. Should I read my review books again or practice with more FRQs?
In addition, for those who got a 5 or are very likely to get a 5 this year, how many points on average do you get on FRQs?</p>
<p>I’m in the same boat. I am good at MC, bad at FRQs…I am going to ask my friends who got a 5.</p>
<p>OMG…I AM SOOOO WORRIED.I am the opposite, i am good at Essays and i am bad at MC. Everyone says that it is super easy. I really hope it is. I am using Barrons and everyone on here is saying that Barrons is not enough. So, Imma get Princeton Review to just ensure I get a 5.</p>
<p>Hey, doglover369, is FRQ just like brainstorming? When I look at the answer, they all just seem so easy, just common sense. But I just can’t come up with those points. So is all I should do just spend more time thinking before writing and then writing as much as I can, so as to cover some points on the scoring guideline?</p>
<p>Same again. I am using both princeton and barrons. I see the answers and I understand it, but it just doesn’t come to me when I actually do it! It is really frustrating.</p>
