<p>Sorry champ but Beer’s Law and Redox Titrations are on the AP Chem test. For my class my teacher covered everything in time and we finished one day before the test. We lost ten days from the blizzard of 2010 so I guess we did pretty good. However, my chem class is abnormally smart. If you get an A in the class you get a 5 on the AP exam because his tests are 4-5 times harder than the AP exam. This year 13/16 kids in my class have an A and the kids walked out of the testing room saying they only missed 2-5 MC questions. I was one of the 3/16 but I still think I might of pulled off a high four or a low 5 :)</p>
<p>My AP Chem teacher knows what he’s doing, We did all the required labs (and them some) and we had enough time to finish the curriculum before spring break.</p>
<p>You think your school has a bad AP Chem teacher? Here’s the breakdown of the scores from last year:
5 - 1/18
4 - 2/18
3 - 0/18
2 - 2/18
1 - 13/18</p>
<p>lemone, I had a teacher likewise. Taught random crap half the time, went off on tangents all the time, and threw everything at your face and just expectsed you to get it immediately. He’d actually be like “Come on man! It’s not that freakin hard!” cause has a Ph.D. in Biochem and Chemistry, and he used to teach a university class. But If I didn’t self-study the 2 weeks before the exam I would’ve probably gotten a 2 max, maybe a 3. But, I was just mainly saying, there’s no excuse you ended up with a bad stone in your academic career, but you still gotta maintain. I self-studied and got a 5, taught myself everything. Reading the textbook is very important, doing problems is vital. That’s vital for college, this teacher (he actually requires us to address him by Dr.) taught me that. He showed me that’s how some classes, especially introductory classes, will be taught in college, and you’re just gonna have to get used to it.</p>
<p>We pretty much have the best AP Chemistry teacher ever! He went over everything we needed to know - coherently and comprehensively - and every day or so he’d make some offhand remark about how chemistry was really hard to understand, which comforted the kids who were struggling and stroked the egos of the smart kids. He’s so sneaky ;D Plus, I’ve been trying to figure out who he reminds me of for a few years now (he also teaches Honors Chemistry at our school), and I’ve finally realized that he has the same brand of humor as Demetri Martin!</p>
<p>As a second semester senior whose AP scores won’t count for anything in college, I can comfortably say that the ONLY reason I strove to get a 5 on chem was to make my teacher proud (and to apologize for falling asleep in class so much) … haha.</p>
<p>lol yeah, my chem teacher spent all year studying homogenous solutions, measuring dissolved oxygen levels in various labs, starcraft, and how to bs points on the frq on the topics that we didnt know (90%)</p>
