<p>Hey truzzi I used The Stranger as well. It fit the prompt quite well. I said that the irony is that although society tried to give humankind’s futile existence through meaningless rules and religions, society gets no justice in Mersault’s death sentence. It is Mersault who gets the justice since he is freed from imprisonment from a cursed paradoxical Earth where people are born only to die.</p>
<p>Are there any internationals that took the form-b test, on here? :D</p>
<p>Did anyone use or know of someone who used A Thousand Splendid Suns? It fit the prompt pretty good, but I think I spelled the Author’s name wrong…</p>
<p>Khaled Hosseini? </p>
<p>Isn’t it the same guy who wrote The Kite Runner ?</p>
<p>I used One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest for the last essay. I feel really good about that one, but I don’t feel so great about the first 2 essays.</p>
<p>whoops, my bad about the multiple choice. did anyone else use antigone for their essay? i found that to be the perfect fit. i was extremely objective though in my essay, like 90% analysis and only 10% background information. how does that tend to fair on the essay grading?</p>
<p>The Marius one was easy, I liked that one.</p>
<p>And yeah, when I saw that the Cranford one was printed on two different pages, I almost went into cardiac arrest thinking that there was a test misprint and that we’d all have to come back a different day to take it after the mess was sorted out.</p>
<p>Yeah the guy who wrote Kite Runner. If that’s the correct way you spell his name, then I spelled it right. So far I haven’t met anyone who has used it yet. </p>
<p>@711Kevin I think that would be fine. Analyzing is the most important part of the Essay. Background Information isn’t really needed.</p>
<p>I thought the MC was pretty hard (at least the 1st poem). I’m hoping for a 5 with -8 MC and 6, 6, 7 essays (which is just barely a 5 using appass). I’ll probably get a 4 though. I wrote about The Grapes of Wrath for the Q3.</p>
<p>I thought the test actually went well. I was worrying about the multiple choice because I was scoring around 40/55 on practice exams and really wanted to get up to about 45. I think three of the passages were relatively easy/medium, the last passage was medium/hard, and the one on grief was pretty hard. Luckily, I was able to keep my focus because it’s incredibly easy to zone out during the multiple choice section.</p>
<p>The essays weren’t bad; I thought they were reasonable and moderate. I was glad that both the prose and poetry essays focused on people relationships because it was easier to describe. The Open Question prompt was also pretty easy. I used Huck Finn and didn’t have much trouble with it. I think it was my best essay in terms of flow and analysis.</p>
<p>I sincerely hope the curve isn’t horrible, because I can’t get a 5 without a good curve, even if I think the exam is easy lol.</p>
<p>I didn’t finish the multiple choice (got the last one) but I still feel I did strongly on it.</p>
<p>My essays weren’t bad. First one good, second one eh, third one good. I LOVED THE THIRD PROMPT! I was hoping I could use 1984 for the essay, and I did a fist-pump when I found out I could.</p>
<p>@711kevin</p>
<p>I used Antigone as well.
Mine was probably a bit more background information though, just because I couldn’t find a way to answer the question without providing a decent amount of it.</p>
<p>I thought the test got easier as it went on. The first story about Marcia was pretty difficult. The first poem on grief, I thought, was ridiculously hard. Then the next three passages were pretty easy in my opinion-- they all were about pretty universal concepts that were relatively simple to understand. So I am hoping I got at least 35 of the multiple choice right.</p>
<p>The essays were just weird. I was expecting to write about more common concepts such as theme, poetic devices (metaphor, symbolism, rhyme scheme, alliteration), but they were both (frustratingly enough) dealing with structure, which is crazy to me. There is only so much you can talk about. The third essay was alright for me; I wrote about Great Expectations, which, in retrospect, may have not been the best choice. Traditionally, I have made 9s the entire year on every essay in class except for one (an 8 at the beginning of the year), but I think the best I did on these essays was an average of 7, unless I get lucky.</p>
<p>So 35 / 55 + 21 / 27 = 4?</p>
<p>So, if a person didn’t really complete his/her essays. What’s the worse score a person can get? Is it a guarantee 1 or maybe 0?</p>
<p>All I’ll say about the multiple choice section is that I thought the answer choice about “the horse’s hidden intentions” (or something like that) was hilarious.</p>
<p>@Karpie </p>
<p>I think you get a - (dash) or a 0 for a blank response.
You definitely aren’t guaranteed a 1 if you left it totally blank.</p>
<p>I3auer: I entered those numbers into the AP Score Calculator on the AP Pass website, and it comes out to a high 4. The curve obviously depends but it will almost surely be a four, possibly even a five, though I don’t think this year’s curve will be that good.</p>

<p>Do you all think a lot of people used Huck Finn? I already know a lot of people used Hamlet.</p>
<p>Huck Finn fits the prompt pretty well, there’s probably a decent number of people who used it. I would have, but I couldn’t really remember everything that happened in it. ;-;</p>
<p>I know a lot of people who used To Kill a Mockingbird.</p>
<p>Most of my friends/classmates used Hamlet and quite a few used The Kite Runner. I literally entered the exam with detailed knowledge of only Huck Finn and The Kite Runner and luckily the prompt fit both. Otherwise, God knows what would have happened. -____-</p>
<p>Antigone was a really good choice for the prompt, and we even read it in class, but we did it in November so no one remembered enough of it to use it.</p>
<p>I never even thought of Huck Finn but yeah that makes sense. I was so intent on using Invisible Man going into the test that I was relieved when there was a perfect prompt for it.</p>
