<p>i got 54/60 on 2009 for multiple choice, hope the questions are that easy tomorrow</p>
<p>Yeah the MC for the 2009 and 2008 Practice exams are really easy. For 2009 I got 51/60 but I finished 12 minutes early. So in the exam tomorrow I’ll spend my time more wisely to get an even better score!</p>
<p>How about we review vocab for FRQ. Random things like writ of certiauri and state decisis.</p>

<p>I’m scared. All our teacher talked about was current politics.</p>
<p>I finished government back in December…exam tomorrow. The FRQs are going to kill me.</p>
<p>You and me both, starchy. They’re not as bad as I’ve been thinking, but there’s still a few too many where I know absolutely nothing about what’s being asked to be confident about the FRQs tomorrow. The MC practices I’ve been doing haven’t been too bad. I guess at this point the only thing I can do is review notes from last semester and go over practice FRQs.</p>
<p>Best of luck to everyone tomorrow!</p>
<p>What are your FR prediction for this year</p>
<p>Any predictions this year?</p>
<p>NOT MY PREDICTIONS! From <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/history-social-sciences/1338236-ap-us-government-politics-frq-predictions.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/history-social-sciences/1338236-ap-us-government-politics-frq-predictions.html</a></p>
<p>No guarantees, but here are some predictions:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Civil Liberties (this is my top pick) – most likely invoking a SCOTUS decision (there hasn’t been a specific court case addressed since 2007).</p></li>
<li><p>Foreign Policy – with all the issues concerning war and war powers, this might be your connection to presidential powers. Plus, it hasn’t been directly asked before.</p></li>
<li><p>Congressional/mid-term elections – with the big turnover in 2006 and the huge shift in 2010, this is likely. May even bring back a discussion on incumbency (although that has been addressed recently)</p></li>
<li><p>Social/Economic Policy – especially entitlement programs and mandatory spending. Possibly addressing health care (although that may be more likely on next year’s exam).</p></li>
<li><p>Divided Government - similar to my reasons for #3. Only unlikelihood regarding this one is that readers already see this definition too much, even when it doesn’t answer the question. And lately, the College Board isn’t into giving out “freebies.”</p></li>
<li><p>The Media – there was a question in 2009 about the media, but it pertained to agenda setting. This year it might focus on coverage or impact on the institutions themselves.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>You can always guarantee that there will be a question related (even if indirectly) to Congress and/or the President. Also intertwined somewhere in these topics is likely to be a discussion of the framer’s intent. I’m fairly confident that we won’t see questions on the bureaucracy, federalism, or voter behavior/socialization – the last three tests were ladened with these topics.</p>
<p>I feel prepared for this test tomorrow but now I’m thinking I should go over those topics again before the test tomorrow… ugh back to studying</p>
<p>Just finished reading the review in Princeton. Only iffy parts is the different programs like entitlement. Anyone think there will be a FRQ over supreme court cases?</p>
<p>We are done here! Lol good luck guys in America!</p>
<p>Finished with AP US Gov! Thought it wasn’t too bad… hopefully the curve isn’t too harsh. I definitely feel confident that I got a 4 or 5.</p>
<p>I just got home from the test… I thought the multiple choice was a bit difficult, but the FRQ were all really easy. I’m confident I’ll score a 4 or 5.</p>
<p>Heh that was pretty easy. Only thing I wasn’t sure of in the FRQ was the last bullet point, but everything else was simple! The multiple choice was really easy too, looks like they reused some questions from the previous exams lol. Feel like I got a 5, and I definitely did better than a 3.</p>
<p>It was insanely easy, and my last AP. I.AM.DONE. YES. </p>
<p>This is weird though – It was my last AP forever, as I’m a senior. I can’t stop smiling. :)</p>
<p>That was ridiculously easy for me. There were maybe 5 MC questions I wasn’t 100% sure on and we did like 60% of the FRQs in class. I expected it to be much harder and after the first page of MCs I was just grinning to myself like a lunatic.</p>
<p>Easiest AP I’ve ever taken! Larry Krieger deserves a Nobel price for writing amazing prep stuff.</p>

<p>Doubt I missed more than 5 questions, the FRQ were easy and flexible. I love life right now</p>
