<p>I believe so, since from looking on old scoring guidelines, the integrand (the stuff inside the integral) is usually worth a point, and if you miss dx or dt or whatever, then the integrand is incorrect.</p>

<p>“Greetings,
Indeed the graders are instructed to overlook omission of the “dx” although we are allowed to shed a tear while doing it.
Regards,

<p>OVERLOOK OMMISSION OF THE “DX” </p>
<p>thank god…</p>
<p>thank you… collegeboard…</p>
<p>wait what jsut happened…? what question was it?</p>
<p>Did anyone else get absolutely NO A’s on the calc mc?</p>
<p>I’m sure there were at least a couple A’s. No A’s would raise a red flag for their answer assigning algorithm. :)</p>
<p>@tmiddlet: no… O_o</p>
<p>My opinion of test: All the questions were fairly straightforward but as I started checking my answers at the end, I found that a handful I had misread/did some dumb mistake. So…should have been easy but I’m still nervous because I probably did a lot more dumb math mistakes.</p>
<p>@EducationOD not necessarily…</p>
<p>Felt wrong but I’m going to trust my instinct. Got 101/108 on the 2008 released exam when they administered it at my school.</p>
<p>For the FRQs that ask you to approximate, do you have to do simplify? (ex. (5+3)^2)</p>
<p>Man I really didn’t think it was that hard. At all. There were lots of little things and hidden mistakes that, if you didn’t remember, would have completely led you to the wrong answer. Anyone know when we get our scores?</p>
<p>tmiddlet: i got no As at all at the calc mc part
and couple of my classmates noticed that too</p>
<p>@Student518</p>
<p>The time they advertise is the third week of July, but from experience, they’ll probably be out earlier than that. I think I had mine by the first week last year. It’s a painfully long wait, but there’s not much you can do about it. I think you get online results faster if you provide your Social Security #, but I may be thinking of something else.</p>
<p>When does the free response go online?</p>
<p>Stevebnydc: Cool. I was the only one with no a’s but some of my class mates had only one or two.</p>
<p>@Scuba32Steve: Friday</p>
<p>damnit did I really get all my A’s in the calc session wrong?</p>
<p>@Scuba32steve</p>
<p>They should post it on Friday; they say it goes on 48 hours after the test. AP Chem is online, and that one was on Monday, so I think we can expect them to be pretty timely. They won’t have the answers, mind you, but you’ll be able to review the questions.</p>
<p>do you think there will be partial credit if you just wrote -1/5? lol</p>
<p>I doubt partial credit would be there but you would only lose one point or two points max.</p>
<p>I’ll consider myself lucky if I manage to pull off a 3 – and I’m pretty good at estimating my AP scores. It’s my own fault for not studying sooner and being more diligent about doing my homework. At the same time, I have a first year AP teacher who, bless her heart, has been dealing with a divorce this year. She did her best and I cannot fault her for trying. Most of my classmates just slept during the AP exam.</p>
<p>As a National Merit Finalist and AP Scholar with Distinction (I used to go to a very good school but moved my senior year), I am embarrassed by my performance today. I recognize that the FRQ’s were significantly easier than they are most years. But my cursory knowledge of series didn’t help me at all on those questions and I couldn’t get my calculator to give me the answers I needed on the MC and FRQ’s. I guess I’ll just have to write this one off as a royal screw-up and retake calculus in college.</p>
<p>I also got no As on MC Calculator section, with over half the answers as Bs…</p>
