Where’d you find that link? It’s not on the past FRQ page…</p>
3% got the 2nd form.</p>
You only have 50 minutes to write two essays, so unless you can write and get your outline done really quickly there’s really no time for a pre-write. The psych essays are pretty straightforward though so you shouldn’t need to make an outline. Your essays don’t even have to be good essays as long as you have all the info required by the prompt</p>
My FRQ was completely different than the one that was posted above (and the one you guys are talking about) as well as my MC…***?</p>
^looks like you got the wrong test. I would suggest calling collegeboard and canceling your score because your answers will not match up to everyone else’s!</p>
LOL I’m just kidding. You just got a different version, that’s all.</p>
what are your curve predictions?</p>
We should all call/email collegeboard about the second essay prompt. I showed my brother who has a degree in neuroscience and even he said that the question is poorly worded (especially the “motor cortex, body movement” part). Also for serotonin, the location is pretty vague as you could talk about synaptic clefts to the different lobes of the brain to the brain in general… what do you guys think?</p>
Okay so I just realize the girl’s name was Annabelle and throughout the entire FR I called her just plain “Anna.” Oops.</p>
Also, does anyone still have nothing on the heart disease question? That one really frustrated me</p>
@lemons8: heart disease question should be the hostile, angry manager guy. He’s got the strongest Type A personality.</p>
@thesmiter
I thought so too because the report ENJOYED a fast paced life.</p>
<p>Has anyone compiled a list of FRQ questions/answers? I know one was done for apush.</p>
<p>alwaysleah,</p>
<p>I don’t think anyone has and if we start now, we wouldn’t get many questions, because it’s been a week, we probably forgot them all and as you can see by the popularity of this thread, that the hype over the AP Psych exam has died off.</p>
<p>@ jsjratt I agree, I really hated the way they posed those questions… I’m kind of surprised that more people aren’t perturbed at it, though.</p>
<p>Halfway through the FRQ, I called her Anna (Annabelle) and just continued on with Anna. Do you think they’d mind? I did establish “Anna” was a shortened version.</p>

<p>did any ap psych teacher post their solutions to the frqs?</p>
<p>I was considering self studying AP Psych next year. I will be a sophomore, and my only hard classes are Alg2Honors, ChemHonors and EnglishHonors (only offers EnviSci to sophs as an AP, and I have no room to take :/). </p>
<p>My dad studied Psychology in college (not practicing), and could help me if I need any. And I was going to get Barrons.</p>
<p>I know you are all thinking that this is such a BS AP, but I actually want to study neuroscience in college. My school does not offer AP Psych…</p>
<p>Do you think I should do it?</p>
<p>DEFINITELY do it. Easiest College Board-administered exam I’ve ever taken IN MY LIFE, no joke … and that includes the PSAT. The AP Psych exam is all about the terminology. MC questions: recognize the correct term or definition. FRQ: define terms and explain how they’re relevant in a made-up person’s given situation. My class used the Myers textbook, which was definitely over-preparatory; I used Barron’s to kind of narrow down what would actually be on the test and what I’d need to study. Seriously, get the Barron’s book and read it cover-to-cover multiple times, buy the Barron’s flash cards and quiz yourself on them until you know every single one, and you’ll get a 5 without breaking a sweat.</p>
<p>In my opinion, every high school student who can take AP Psych should, just because it’s a) an easy 5, and b) very unique in that it’s extremely easy and extremely interesting. You know what I mean? For most classes, the higher of a level you reach, the more interesting a class is; psychology is unique in that it’s fascinating yet *easy.<a href=“Have%20I%20stressed%20that%20it’s%20easy?%20:P”>/I</a> I think the main reason it seemed so simple to me is because, while it’s vocab-intensive, the vocab isn’t hard to remember. Each term just makes sense. We are psychological beings, after all, so most of the stuff you’ll learn in AP Psych will make perfect sense to you because you experience it in your own life or witness it in others’. Soo in conclusion I think anyone who can take the test should, and I think that’s especially true for a prospective neuroscience major. 
So go ahead, self-study; your dad can drill you on your flash cards and help you understand anything you might find confusing. Oh, and make sure you practice writing handwritten, 25-minute FRQs. And you’ll be set. :D</p>
<p>@MandieJ: Since reading your post you have inspired me to take the course. I’m not that compelled to study Neuroscience as a major but Psychology seems too interesting to pass up. My school will not allow Juniors to take the AP version but we can take Honors Psychology online if we want. I am definitely doing this , then AP senior year!</p>

<p>Elated to hear it! I hope your experience with psychology will be as beneficial to you as it was to me. :)</p>
<p>I need help. I’m taking the AP Psychology exam today. Does anyone remember how the FRQ from this year’s TEST FORM B went?</p>
