@BassGuitar

You need to worry about sigfigs, but if you’re not sure just use 3 because it’s highly unlikely that you’ll be asked for 1 or 4 sig figs, and you’re allowed to be one off.

Finished!!!

Done. Easy peasy

It was so hard!!! Really worried that I didn’t get a 5 >:(

FEQs were easier than I expected… but time ran out on the multiple choice :(.

FRQ much easier than expected, mc was very easy. Struggled on a few minor things here and there but confident got a 5

@manukev I’m jealous of that mc confidence.

Assuming a decent FEQ score, about how many out of 60 should we be looking for for a 4 or 5?

@Xurian
Decent meaning as in 20’s/46 probably high 40 or 50/60

With 30’s/60 you would be good with 40/60

This is for a 5

FRQs were absolutely cake. I just didn’t know how to do a part of two of em. MCs were a hit or miss for me…They weren’t that easy :-/

MC was very easy. Apparently I had a question that nobody else had. It asked for the percent yield (MC)

Do you guys know around how many total points the free response had?
Like for each of the 3 long ones + the 4 shorter ones

i missed everything and failed. GG

Easy for me means super easy for everyone else… grr. Why does collegeboard have such a love for electrochemistry when it’s such a tiny part of the curriculum? Literally every other FR is some cell crap from hell

10 points for each long; 4 points for each short.

There were a million questions about half equivalence on there, I can’t keep it straight. Are we not allowed to discuss MC? Judging from my warning I think no would be a good guess

MODERATOR’S NOTE:

Your guess would be correct.

It seems like the CB got their act together for this exam.

Do you think a 5 is going to be more than 73% which it was last year, since we got more time for the FR?

@apactstudent How so? Because it was hard?

Hope not. I did notice we had a huuuge amount of time for FR. MC wasn’t bad either
