<p>For the DBQ, i just wrote “DBQ Page 1” and “DBQ Page 2” and so on.</p>
<p>for the FRQs, I’m pretty sure that you can switch up the order as long as you numbered it correctly… not entirely sure though</p>
<p>On the top, I just put the number. The A,B, and C is to differentiate between sample essays since they’d all have the same number. (I THINK. Not sure, though.)</p>
<p>I thought the test of ok overall. How bad is it if I messed up one of my paragraphs on one of my FRQs? My argument doesn’t make much sense. Can I still get above a 7?</p>
<p>^Things like that can be really subjective, but if your overall essay is really good, you probably could still score a 5. The AP graders do allow for some mistakes</p>
<p>5 on the essay or the exam as a whole?</p>
<p>I was talking about your essay, but even with a 5 essay, it’s still very possible to score a 5 on the exam as a whole</p>
<p>Really, really BS-ed essay #4, but otherwise, I did a presentation on one of the mentioned in #7 so I thought #7 went pretty well. Oh, but #4 was really a great deal of b-s-ing…(thinking about it makes me cringe).</p>
<p>The DBQ I answered with 4 pages. Not too bad, I don’t think, the topic was. And the multiple choice! I ended up with fifteen minutes to spare…it was great 
Overall, better feeling than calc, whose free response I think I didn’t do so well upon.</p>
<p>I thought the Multiple Choice was tougher than I expected, but the DBQ was awesome because I was completely prepared for it due to have an essay about that topic assigned a few weeks ago. FRQs were unexpected, annoying, and tedious, but i’m confident I got a 4 or 5.</p>
<p>The MC wasn’t too hard or too easy…if I could eliminate one answer, I just guessed lol
(so I ended up not skipping any questions at all)</p>
<p>As for the FR, I thought the DBQ was ok but I should have pointed out more bias. The essays were meh…I did a good amount of bsing on #2 but I kind of knew what I was talking about on #7. I’m pretty sure I went out of the range of years they gave you though. </p>
<p>But I definitely feel less confident than I did last year for the AP US exam :(</p>
<p>Most of my friends (and I) found the MC to be incredibly simple, especially the question based on data, if you remember. </p>
<p>I don’t know if my evidence for #4 was out of the time period given, and half of #5 was just BSed based on the limited knowledge I had about the ________. Hopefully, the graders will like my comparison of Alexander II to Joseph II in my essay.</p>
<p>This might be because I’m a senior…but halfway doing the essays, my brain was like “gah, effort…I wonder what would happen if I left them all blank.” XD</p>
<p>I finished them anyways. Did FRQ 4 & 7. 7 was especially awesome because I know ****loads about those topics from random self-learning (not from the class). =D</p>
<p>So… how bad is it if I only have 2 paragraphs for the DBQ… As in, I had one distinct group, and then split the second paragraph into two groups (still same paragraph) but just under a generality… Am I screwed?</p>
<p>depends… how many pages was it?</p>
<p>@numero1 it depends on whether you had a 3 pronged thesis. But then agin, it also depeds on whether the graders see that you had the 3 groups instead of 2 or else the most you can get on your DBQ is a 5.</p>
<p>I thought the multiple choice was hard. I’ll be glad if I get late 40s /early 50s right since I only guessed on 16 so I would get that many points taken off. The DBQ was annoying but I’m sure I got a 9 on it. My FRQs were rushed. I did 3 and 7. I think I got a 7 or 8 and a 5 or 6 on them (respectively). I’m sure i got a high 4 at the very least. Hoping for a low 5.</p>
<p>JalliDalli, can you explain how you broke up 3 because I’m honestly having some doubts I even answered the question correctly.</p>
<p>It was around 4 and a half pages… I really hope they can see that I just put the last two groups in one paragraph under one big category. I’m pretty sure the distinction and transitions are clear, but it’s in one paragraph…</p>
<p>ahhh yesterday I was like “Yes 4 or 5 for sure!” Every minute my certainty has been declining… :/</p>
<p>Lmao, same here. I was sort of lost on the DBQ, my 3 groups sucked…</p>
<p>my three groups were social, political and economic lol. </p>
<p>It made sense though…</p>
<p>Oh and for essay 6, I BS’ed a lot. I said one group was much more organized and had a singular goal while the other group was disjointed with many opposing goals</p>
<p>I really hope that the curve is the same as last year because I am not too confident about my DBQ or FRQs. Multiple choice was not too hard though.</p>
