@AnniiT Just one. But it’s basically the only valid practice test since it’s made by the College Board. They really need to give us more practice exams. Or at least release an old one (which they’ve never done for bio).
@IequalSmart @AnniiT @thethinkingman Here’s the official grading for E and M (notice they’re different) from the Blue Book: http://■■■■■■/MF5mrP
Can anyone try and compile a list of questions and answers so far? I know that that is a lot to ask.
@Nickly… Thanks! Sorry, I didn’t see your post before.
If anyone wants to help me compile a list of all the questions and answers we have … That’ll be good. But I don’t think it’ll be that hard.
So dumb, I got the 3 subsequent questions wrong because of that PTH graph, I even knew it was PTH means more blood calcium, just when it says “based off the graph” it always screws me up (yes I now realize the graph was about negative feedback)
The mud question also, have we decided that it was substrate or burrow density? (I said burrow density because substrate didn’t seem the right word for difference in resources)
Can anyone reiterate the PTH graph questions (please try to get it word by word) and what the axes looked like?

@CGlynn sorry to break it you bud, but the test is more than one question. The question you seem to be so enamored with said, verbatim, ‘based on the graph.’ Nobody knows what the right answer is (at least in CB’s eyes), so if I were you I might find a better use of my time
@Nickly Thx! So the M test is scored a little lower. However, you can only miss 8 questions in order to get a 700… and that’s if you answered all the questions. Man I’m screwed… hopefully college board curves the test really well this year, if they do.
Does anyone want to help me make our own answer key?
@IequalSmart Ehhh. We only have like a 20 day wait to find out our scores (unlike the 2.5 month waiting period for AP)…I think it’s not feasible and not worth it
Hold on, what? From my collegeboard book, you can miss 9 and still get 750.
@AnniiT Yeah, I just checked, Miss 9, you get 750.
do you guys think if i shaded one circle way darker than another that I erased, but not totally, my answer choices should still be marked correctly? prob overthinking, but it’s still on my mind…
@samsunguser I wouldn’t worry about it. When they have those diagrams showing correct/incorrect shadings it’s always just for security…if it’s mostly marked pretty darkly then you’re fine. They just don’t want people doing things like drawing X’s through the bubbles.
@CGlynn sorry to bother you about the calcium question again… lol but the calcium in blood increases, not bone. i It did ask for calcium levels, however blood calcium levels and bone calcium levels are different
I know for a fact that the calcium and PTH one was decreases, decreases, body would start processes that make more calcium. I’ve seen it before on another test and I’ve seen the model answer. The crab one was also definitely the substrate, the mouse was definitely the motor neurons and the one about the gene suddenly disappearing was Genetic Drift (Bottleneck Effect)
@catsthatbarkk do you remember the vitamin question one? and the marsupial thing?
