Official AP Human Geography thread 2012

<p>How specific do you guys think we needed to be on question 1 part b where we had to explain the purpose of one the walls we listed in part a. I chose to elaborate on the Berlin Wall, but was kind of vague in my description. I talked about how it was built by Germany to divide the city into two halves, East Berlin and West Berlin and prevent emigration from one half to the other. Do you guys think this is too vague to get the point/points for that section?</p>

<p>^I thought it was built by the Soviet Union?</p>

<p>Edit: No, you’re right.</p>

<p>^ dam… I said the same thing… Is it possible for points to be taken off for inaccurate facts?</p>

<p>@dfire28 They don’t take any points off for wrong information</p>

<p>^
That’s true. As long as you answered the question they asked, you’ll be fine. Writing incorrect information that wasn’t needed will not deduct from your total score.</p>

<p>Personally I said: Berlin Wall, US-Mexico border, and the North/South Korean border. What did everybody think of the MC section?</p>

<p>i’m taking the late exam this thursday.
are they usually harder than the original exams? and completely different?</p>

<p>Yo, itzmikejones here. What did you homies put for urban spatial organization in #3.
And, do youz thinks that religious tolerance and jobs in France are acceptable reasons why Muslims are migrating there. Thank you boiiizzz in a’vance</p>

<p>^LOL religious tolerance in France…the ravcist, antiimmigrant candidate got 20% of the vote…</p>

<p>So am I the only one who completely failed the third FRQ?</p>

<p>^probably not. I looked at the past FRQs, and the FRQ about religion are always (to me) super hard. I would have probably got 0 on one of the past FRQ about the 3 religious denominations in USA.</p>

<p>Overall, do u guys think u did beast on it? (Mc and frq overall)</p>

<p>yo garfield bro, so iz religious tolerance not co’rect??? becuz some other countries in the middle-east likez Saudi Arabia or Iran haz culture clashes between Sunnis and Shi’ites, so France gives thems a place to feel safe and not havzis these culchur clashes that often lead to fights or even wars bro.</p>

<p>When do they usually release scoring guidelines for the FRQ’s?</p>

<p>^Like middle of next school year.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You’re right that France is probably more tolerant than the Middle Eastern countries, but I just found that statement amusing…maybe I’ve watched too many videos regarding “The Muslim Invasion” of Europe.</p>

<p>Anybody get their scores by phone?</p>

<p>I did!!!</p>

<p>I got a 5!!!
Haha on the last frq i only answered part a</p>

<p>Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using CC</p>

<p>I got a 5! Definitely wasn’t expecting it. Couldn’t think of any more walls for the first question (it was a bad morning), so I wrote strictly about the Berlin Wall. I BS-ed the second FRQ (obviously it worked), and I guessed the last country wrong on the third, though everything else I wrote was correct. </p>

<p>My multiple choice must have saved me.</p>
