<p>Good luck to everyone this morning! (:</p>

142

<p>lol good studying everyone</p>

<p>Missed 4-5 ish on MC and I’ll probably fail all the FRQs, but I’m hoping for a 5</p>

<p>gg no re :(</p>

143

<p>Good Luck to All!</p>

144

<p>Super easy exam. </p>

145

<p>that was soooooooooooo easy. im worried about the curve.</p>

146

<p>Im confident about my MC but i never went over polarization… Does FRQ give partial points?</p>

147

<p>You don’t have to get the entire FRQ correct to get points.</p>

<p>I’m guessing that the curve will be very harsh this year. But many below average students take the exam at my school and obviously thought it was difficult, so who knows?</p>

148

<p>@Awflapjackz I mean do they give like .5 points for kinda gettting the answer for FRQS? and same with my school I think 3 kids including me studied. Everyone was saying that they were hoping for a 2 after that MC… How does the curve work? </p>

149

<p>No idea about that. I guess we’ll just wait until June for the percentages to come out. </p>

<p>Really think that I did enough today to get a 5, so i’m pretty happy. :)</p>

150

<p>I also found the test to be really easy. Just a couple of terms on the MC that i didnt know. I think the curve will be pretty much the same as previous years though. </p>

151

<p>@awflapjackz im about to look at the FRQ thursday and see what the lowest my multiple choice can be for a 5 lol.
Only thing on MC that was kinda hard was having those multiple choice questions that have a one word difference that changes the whole question. </p>

152

<p>is 79 points still a 4 btw? cause I think i got 20/25 on the frq and if 79 points is still a 4 then i would have to get under 60% of MC(lol) to be below 79 points. </p>

153

<p>too easy </p>

154

<p>So I skipped lines between paragraphs of the different sections of the FRQ. Do you think they’ll count off for that?</p>

155

<p>This exam was easy so the curve will probably suck. For party polarization is it ok if I just defined it using the y axis variable of the graph?</p>

156

<p>Also what is it called when citizens elect a president based on his or her past performance?</p>

157

<p>

</p>

<p>…why would they?</p>

158

<p>Well I mean it says on the back of the booklet that you aren’t supposed too</p>
