I agree. MC had 5 or 6 tricky questions that I felt could have gone between two different answers… but the FRQs were pretty easy (this is the first time I did an FRQ and felt like I actually knew what I was doing). THE DBQ was not confusing either for the first time ever!!! OGGGMM
Some of the MC was debatable, but I felt confident on the FRQs.
I think I probably got a 4. I was a bit freaked out by the MC at first, but once I went back through and checked my answers, I felt much more confident. The FRQs really weren’t hard topics, but I probably didn’t have enough specific evidence to get a 5. I wrote 3-4 pages on the second two with six pages on the DBQ (big-ish handwriting).
I’m feeling this! Yay!! So delightful
Honestly, I’m scared about this test. It’s not that the actual test was difficult. I only had trouble on a few multiple choice questions. The essay portion was not that bad either since the DBQ was understandable and I knew about the topics in the other two essays.
I’m scared because everyone else is saying the test was easy. Both people in my school and high school students on reddit were saying the test was easy. If everyone thought the test was easy, then that means that most people most likely did well. If most people did well, then that means that it’s gonna be harder to get high scores even if you did do well. The curve is based on the scores of others.
We’ll see in July I guess. ¿Y’all feel me dawgs?
I absolutely understand your point. And that is also my apprehension. However, looking back at all actual exams, there was no really bad curves even though there must have been some fairly easy tests.
Also, i strongly dislike some of the MC simply because there are two legit answers. I really hope that CB would either cancel the questions or accept both, which actually happened in one of the actual exam.
Finally, I am emancipated!
@neoking That’s my same worry. Oh well, nothing we can do about it now.
May the curves be on our side. ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^
SO EASY AHHHHHH
The power went out at my school with like a half hour left. Everyone has to retake the essay half of the test next week with entirely new questions even though most people were close to if not finished. Thank god I wasn’t taking it this year lol.
I was good with the DBQ, but I know I screwed up the CCOT and Comparative,
I literally feel asleep last night listening to John Green obsess over the Mongols.
It was surprisingly easy. I think I messed up a bit on my Compare & Contrast though (I burned out so hard near the end). Only problem now is that everyone I asked found it easy, and so if a lot of kids in the USA did well then the curve and scoring will be much stricter.
So easy, the fr at least. All the prompts were things I’ve studied well. Mc was decent though a lot of iffy ones
I studied the wrong things. :((
I felt like I over overthought the multiple choice questions, so I don’t think I did well on that part, but the essays were extremely easy for me, though my right arm hurt so much…
It’s so weird that we’re done with AP World History. We literally studied the entire history of the world in less than a year. Great job everyone!
I thought for sure the essays would be something like ww1 ww2 or communist fascism stuff with the lack of them on the mc and was freaking out
My school we have history for 2 years, so reaching back to that first month was hard. But I was so shocked how freaking easy the essay questions were, I thought that would be the part I struggled with, but for me the mc had way more iffy questions than the official practice one.
I noticed that as well, there was little asked about communism or the cold war.
I have a micro exam tomorrow and literally ZERO motivation to study. I dislike the class so much
I’m so scared for the curve…
Everything that I studied wasn’t even on the test. I was memorizing PERSIA’s for all the empires/dynasties and they were pretty much useless.
