Hi, everyone. I self-studied the AP Psy by using Barron’s. The review is great and I think I have crammed most of the book. I got about 10 wrong on the 1994 released exam and I am pretty confident. But when I did the MC part of Barron’s test 1, I was frustrated. I got more than 30 wrong. How can I get such a result? Do you have the same feeling? Help me, plese!!!</p>
Hmm… well when I took the practice test in Barron for AP psych (also self studied) it said I would get a 3, I ended up with a 4 and pretty sure it was close to a 5.</p>
Thank you. I found that there are many abbreviations in the Barron’s test. Will the real ones use the same method or will they give the full name with the abbreviation? I lost a lot of points for failing to identify what those abbreviations were.</p>
You’re going to have to elaborate on what exactly is abbreviated in barrons, I don’t remember it was a while back… But as for the actual test, it was very straight forward. As long as you know your terms well, you should be fine.</p>
Well, Psych has gotten harder over the years. your performance on a 1994 exam isn’t exactly accurate. with Barron’s i also got around 30 wrong but im confident i will get a 4 on the real exam. just relax, you will be fine.</p>
I was about to ask this exact question. I got an 85% on 1994 and a 72% on Barrons #1.</p>
