How was APC for people who took it this year?

<p>Hey everyone!</p>

<p>I haven't found out my scores yet, because I really don't want to pay CB more money than I need to, and since I'm going to college, I'm not in much of a hurry other than the fact that I need to show them to my advisor to get college credit. </p>

<p>But I remember that APC (AP Physics C) wasn't very good, particularly the Mechanics because the FR #2 was simply ... evil. How have you guys done on Mechanics despite screwing up that question? Personally, I'm expecting a 3 or 4, but I have yet to discover.</p>

<p>Use the small angle approximation…Write an essay on how you can determine hte center of gravity. Blah Blah…</p>

<p>Needless to say, my class got brutally murdered on that exam. It was the first year my teacher taught AP Physics C, lol.</p>

<p>And by brutally murdered, I mean nobody made above a 2.</p>

<p>Having self-studied Physics C, I was not really prepared for that question, but I used calculus to hammer out an answer, which ended up being pretty close to the right one (I did small angle then integrated, instead of the other way around). In any case, I got a 5, likely from the MC section.</p>

<p>Well, I took a really garbage physics class(Not AP) and decided to study both sections.</p>

<p>We only ever got to projectile motion and slightly into work energy, so I self studied all the other topics, with calculus of mechanics as well as the entirety of E&M. </p>

<p>I took the test and after FRQ 2 on mech and all the FRQs on E&M(I stupidly messed up the last part of every one…) I thought I was shooting at like a 4 and a 3 or so…</p>

<p>BOTH 5’s!!! uhh…okey dokey</p>

<p>I did find the MC very easy though especially compared to the princeton review problems.</p>
