I sneezed on my AP exam.

Test Preparation AP Mathematics & Computer Science
1

<p>So I sneezed all over my AP Statistics exam (the free response booklet). Will there be a grading problem?</p>

2

<p>Possibly. How bad was the damage to the booklet?</p>

<p>Someone at CB is going to have some real fun scanning your booklet. :P</p>

3

<p>not that bad, it kind of looked like a spilled a little of bit of water on it.</p>

4

<p>I ****ed on my AP Physics C Mechanics exam, metaphorically speaking.</p>

5

<p>^ Literally speaking, someone actually did ‘****’ on their exam…</p>

<p>FRQ part - green booklet. It’s actually a thread somewhere here on the forums… or a post. I think it’s under AP STATS 2011…</p>

<p>I lol’d so hard when I read it but I’m in class right now so: yerpdaderp…</p>

<p>I do feel sorry for the guy though… can’t imagine doing that on exam day… that would SUCK.</p>

6

<p>I sneezed on my SAT test booklet… I think it was a math section…
Will there be any issues?</p>

<p>(Sorry that this isn’t 100% relevant…)</p>

7

<p>NuclearMatches, would you mind trying to find that thread for me? I looked and didn’t see anything.</p>

8

<p>^ It’s kind of too late for this (2 WEEKSSSS GAHHH) and I can’t believe I’ve just noticed but (sorry) I mean the AP Physics B exam thread.</p>

<p>Sorry!</p>

<p>If you’re still reading this, you’ll find that it was quite worth while, though I do feel sorry for the poor chap.</p>

<p>Can’t possibly imagine having this happen to me…</p>

<p>It’s fine dude, lets just hope that the person marking doesn’t take it out on your grades :)</p>

<p>I can tell you from what I have heard from someone who has graded these exams for a very long time, what happens is that they have a team come in and basically clean it up. Then, the grader has to wear gloves and stuff and then simply grades your paper like a normal one. Since there are thousands of people who take these exams, you will not be the only one. Your test will be treated seperately from all the others, but this should not impact your score.</p>

11

<p>That’s why I don’t try any new foods before any major exams ;). </p>

<p>

<p>As long as it’s not on the multiple choice, you will be good…
The group of people correcting your test might be grossed out or curious though
(or I think they make copies for everyone to use so it wouldn’t show…)</p>

<p>LOL @ NuclearMatches
Anyway, when I first read this I thought “oh crap, if it’s the MC…” but you said it was the FRQ, which I think should be fine :slight_smile: Because it’s graded by a person, not a machine.</p>

<p>LOL at this thread… I feel bad for whoever who has to grade the exams…in protective gloves…really? Almost sounds forensics to me :P</p>
