*** Official AP Computer Science A Thread 2014-2015 ***

@BunnyMonster I have to agree with you about the multiple choice, there was so much tracing and running code involved, I didn’t have nearly enough time to get through the entire MC section. I only got through around 30 questions. Most of the people in my class also felt that way too.

I barely finished the MCs in time but finished the FRQs with about 50 minutes to spare. The first three FRQs were a breeze, and the fourth went decently.

Can someone please try to post the answers to the frqs once they are OFFICIALY released? I am pretty sure we are allowed to do that…

he will post the answers once the college board has posted the questions free for answering.

@darkpoison thanks!!

There will be many sites with proposed answers; I’ll post a link to another one (from one APCS textbook author) when it’s available.

Yes, once the FRQs are released, all discussion about them is fair game. :slight_smile:

@jkhuggins Thank you so much!!

That test was so easy… I’m relatively sure I got every single question right. I finished FRQ in thirty minutes, and I had an hour and fifteen minutes left afterwards. I tried to fall asleep, but I ended up just making a sculpture with my pens, pencils, and erasers. I don’t even know how anyone can get less than a 5 on this joke of an exam. :stuck_out_tongue:

For part C of the last FRQ, were you supposed to assume that all of the objects in the array also contained a Range and “were” a class and therefore contained the class accessor getmin/max methods?

Well if your teacher sucks it’s obviously going to be more difficult.

@ayraify no, the NumberGroup interface contained one method, boolean contains(int n). The method should NOT have been implemented in the interface and SHOULD be implemented in the Range class and all other class which implement NumberGroup. You were given an ArrayList, so all you had to do was traverse the ArrayList, if (I forget the name).get(i).contains(num) return true, then return false outside of the loop. You could NOT call getMinValue()/getMaxValue() as NumberGroup did not contain these methods (and it was not stated that getters or setters were even necessary in the Range class, mine didn’t have them).

oops. I actually implemented the method in the interface…:(. I am not sure how many points will be taken off for that…

So, we allowed to about the test now since its been 48 hrs, or we gotta wait till they post the questions

@darkpoison I think we wait till they release but they should be released soon.

@darkpoison @harsh98 yes, we’re supposed to wait until the official release. 48 hours would be around 4pm EDT today, but given that it’s the weekend, I don’t know if the release will happen today or not. We’ll just have to wait and see …

@darkpoison @harsh98 @jkhuggins

FWIW, LY they released on Saturday and Sunday, so I’m assuming they will this year as well.

How do they release the exams over the course of two days.

If last year is any indication, they will release Thursday’s FRQ today and Friday’s tomorrow. @darkpoison

Alright, I guess the only to do is wait. Think I might nap.

They’re here! https://secure-media.collegeboard.org/digitalServices/pdf/ap/ap15_frq_computer_science_a.pdf
