<p>who's taking it =]</p>

<p>me.. and i have not even started studying my PR book yet... currently enrolled in honors physics class... i don't think i can even break 600. any tips for me?</p>

<p>Me. I'm gonna go over all of PR since my AP Phys teacher this year didn't teach me anything.</p>

<p>me, have to self-study everything since my class is worthless. I got 670 on the test in the blue book knowing only cons. of energy and f=ma so hopefully I can squeeze out a 700+ score</p>

<p>me, i took the sparknotes one and got 790, does anyone know if sparknotes physics is accurate?</p>

<p>I took the May one, and it was harder than anything I had seen before. I'm currently in AP Physics B and have a 103 average =/
Now, I do recommend using the books extensively because clearly my class didn't prepare me well at all as there is a lot of modern physics and physicists on it.</p>

<p>sparknotes is considered slightly harder, so adamonkey you're on track.</p>

<p>ooo..i'm taking it. I'm taking physics B, and just how hard is it??? is it exactly like Ap Physics test?</p>

<p>I'm taking, currently in Honors Physics I, but I have to self study so much stuff, its crazy.</p>

<p>The spark notes is the one on the net ? Or do they have a book (which is different ?)</p>

<p>thanks a lot lolcats4
and yes R-DNA, it's the one on sparknotes, the website</p>

<p>im taking it
hoping for that 800 :/</p>

<p>im taking it , i think its the easiest one or at least it should be after taking ap physics. I am a little worried about the modern physics and the wave stuff which is not covered by the physics c but with the curve so lenient it should be preety easy to get a high score</p>

<p>lol the curve IS very lenient. I've taken AP Physics B and probably got a 5 on the AP exam. I looked thru a book, i think it was kaplan's, and i think the stuff is very easy-looking....and for me, books are generally much harder than the real thing.</p>

<p>don't be fooled by Kaplan!! Their practice tests took me an average of 30 minutes to complete, and I'd get 800's each time. By comparison the real thing is 10x harder!</p>

<p>wat is the usual phyz curve? how many wrong still qualifies you for an 800?</p>

<p>thx</p>

<p>someting like 7 or 8 wrong u can still get a 5, according to one book that might be inaccruate xD</p>

<p>I'm in regular physics and I feel prepared for everything except Nuclear and Thermal physics (and I'm using Barron's to fill in the gaps).</p>

<p>it's a lot more than 7 or 8 wrong for an 800 I think</p>

<p>well idk but that would seem super easy then.</p>
