<p>@awflapjackz lol im like 20 miles above the D </p>
<p>IDK, about Macro either lets see how it goes. tomatox1, keep in mind that the appass uses current exams for the calculation. He is on the borderline for a 5. If you input a 50 for MC and if you remove 7 points from the FRQs. Those tests APPass bases its scores off might have a higher curve than we are gonna get.</p>
<p>idk there were some random mc questions that could have thrown some people off so the curve can’t be that harsh</p>
<p>Please don’t tell me im the only one that got tripped up by the last FRQ): </p>
<p>WAIT for the frq with the voter turnout did we have to discuss both the effects of age/education or just pick one of those two? I can’t remember.</p>
<p>@kpopzz you only had to pick one i believe. </p>
<p>@kpopzz Only one of them. But they were pretty much the same anyway.</p>
<p>@BarryYung42 yea I was tripped up by the last one too</p>
<p>@barryyung42 Oh phew and same! I completely blanked on what that term meant but I made my best guess from looking at the graph. I think I got two points at the most. </p>
<p>What did you guys say for the causes for polarization? That was one of the ones that made me feel insecure about my score since I totally had to BS it. I said ideological differences and “the bill itself” which is totally wrong. -.- </p>
<p>My friend mentioned the winner-take-all system and I was like “WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THAT?!” anyway T^T</p>
<p>I bs’d the causes by saying party loyalty/identification and whips lol</p>
<p>@alphabot I believe the curve is set by giving the exam to college students and then receiving data and trying to find score ranges where a 5 heavily correlates to an A and a 4 heavily corresponds to a B etc. The curve is usually set before collegeboard ever receives our exam. This is why some exams have high percentages of 5’s (like calc BC which has 45-50%), because college students don’t do so well in the tougher subjects whereas social studies courses have generally higher expectations (gov requires 76% usually for a 5), because the general ed courses in college are usually easier for a wider range of students.</p>
<p>Oh, I also stuck in something about them being “delegates” and conforming to the party’s majority opinion. teehee</p>
<p>@Jimmyboy23 if thats the case i would think that it would be easier for us because the day before the test we all study the material. Unless the college students also do that before they are given our exam we should be thinking its easier than the curve if its based on college students</p>
<p>@capitalamerica what did federalist and antifederalist beleive in terms of nat gov.? </p>
<p>@BarryYung42 I feel like for some reason this was a trick question, but I basically said that Federalists wanted a strong national government without impeding on the power of the state governments while Antifederalists wanted a weak national government with most of the power given to the state governments. </p>
<p>Then I gave an example with government intervention in the economy but IDK if that was even really relevant to the time period… :[</p>
<p>will 50-52 correct multiple choice and decent FRQ’s (missed a few points on each but not too many; in other words, received over 65% of the points) be a 5 on this exam?</p>
<p>@capitalamerica i did that too but i put an example of the antifeds wanting bill of rights before signing everything. </p>
<p>@College123college That’s very very close to the borderline for a 4 and a 5. It is thus difficult to say, but you definitely got a 4 at the very least (sort of like me >.>).</p>
<p>@BarryYung42 I didn’t put that since that didn’t really relate to the national government directly, but that probably wouldn’t have hurt since it balanced federal and state government powers a bit… though wasn’t that a part of the later section of the question? :o</p>
<p>@College123College I think thats boarderline 5. Lets say 51 points on MC for easy numbers. thats 85% from MX. then you add in lets say 70% on FRQ. Mean of 85 and 70 are 77.7% .775*120=93. Based on the charts ive seen thats only one or two points away from being a 4 </p>
