omg i'm COMPLETELY STRESSING OUT. how to calm down?!?!?!

<p>man, this happened last year
i was a nervous wreck right before the ap us history test, seriously spewing history facts out everywhere that morning, ended up getting a 4</p>

<p>first test on tues, ap statistics, still trying to finish the prep book....am i screwed?!?!?!?!</p>

<p>I HATE THIS FEELING BUT I CANNOT CALM DOWN, ANY HELP PLZ</p>

<p>if it makes u feel better i have an ap stat test tuesday, a swim meet that afternoon, an ap calc bc test wednesday and two reseach papers due this week. one test...you should be fine</p>

<p>but
i havent opened the cliffs ap bio book
i still have to finish a lot of chem for that ap test....pretty much self studying
3 huge tests tomorrow, cant skip anymore
and like a huge ass study guide for english that my friend didnt do last year, so yeah, gotta do it on my own this time
and its 9 pm already!
if i were you, i'd put sports on hold this week, thats what i did last year</p>

<p>holy macaroni, more coffee needed
what sucks is that i'll probably be like this until ap's are over...i always end up completely freaking out, even if i know my stuff</p>

<p>Realise that if you fail you ARE going to get into a good college, and you ARE going to do well in life. It is a big big hit finding you failed the exam. If you realize how much you actually learned, and how you benefited from that, the exam grade is just a score.</p>

<p>hmmm... I haven't started studying for AP stats yet, not worried at all. I'll probably study tomorrow.</p>

<p>Yea.. haven't started stats yet except for like 50 pages out of cliffs I did on saturday at like 2 am.. going to study tomorrow after human geo and lang and comp, both of which I started studying for today..</p>

<p>Just letting you know that I'm right with you on Stat...I have yet to take a full practice test, though I'm about 3/4 through Barrons. At least it's not your first AP, so you have some knowledge of what you're getting into :P So if I'm not screwed, you certainly aren't.</p>

<p>@sarorah....I hope you don't mind me asking, but what was your raw score on the MC section, and what did you get on your essays and DBQ, I just wanna know what I takes to get a 4 or 5....Thanks hope you don't mind answering</p>

<p>oo im sorta flipping out too
ive got 3 tests tomorrow on top of reading about islam in the middle east, africa, and ALL OF EUROPE!!! for ap world and i need a 5 to shut up my teacher.
plus idk if ima pass bio........ EEP!</p>

<p>i need a 5 to shut up my teacher.</p>

<p>ME TOO!</p>

<p>Everyone relax... they're just APs. Take some deep breaths</p>

<p>After the test go do something really fun with your friends. Like, paintball or something. Do something that forces you to move around. It's a great stress reliever and exercise really clears your mind.</p>

<br>


<br>

<p>I need a 5 to shut up my parents</p>

<p>to calm down= realize that what you are doing now is minimal, all you can do is cram, smile, don't forget to eat/sleep, and hope you get lucky on the essays (applies to all exams, i know because im taking 7)</p>

<p>wow, nice to know kids all over the country are also going thru this, thanks for sympathizing guys. :) alright...deep breath...i think i just had a panic attack earlier. but i'll probably have to pull an all nighter, damn.</p>

<p>I guess this isn't 1/2 as bad as others taking like more than 4 . . . good luck to you guys . . . :( parents and teachers wont shut up till july 1st though, i wish they could see how they're plainly not helping, especially with all these tests during ap week ;(</p>

<p>and yeah euphoric potato (lol nice sn) I need to go do some exercise, it's like im really jumpy but trying to force myself to focus, i'm probably gonna for a short run or something, if i have time.</p>

<p>made in china - um really, thinking back, I don't know how I got a 4. 2 days before the test i started reading REA and just cramming every hour, skipped school and all, and then on the day of the test, i left 21 blank cuz i thought you should only answer ~60/80 (BOY WAS I WRONG) and i answered the ones i was SURE of only . . . i guess the FRs pulled me through? </p>

<p>i swore to myself i wouldn't go thru all that cramming again....looks like i still have those bad study habits. I remember losing like 5 lbs the few days before the test, no joke. my mother would bring the dinner to my room to make sure i didn't die or anything.</p>

<p>SIGH ...I TAKE THESE THINGS WAY TOO SERIOUSLY
and then coming here and seeing

Has anyone taken a test cold and received a 5? </p>

<li>the SAT, i got a 2390, but i mean, it's significantly different from an AP. I'm going to have to study so hard for AP calc.

<p>I'm scared for chem AP because my teacher said that he would change our grades from both semesters to A's if we got a 4 or a 5 on the AP test. Yeahh.. too bad I haven't been doing anything all year and I have a D- in the class now for not turning in anything. So yeah, I'm freaking out about that.</p>

<p>Those with AP lang.. are you guys cramming or sleeping tonight? I think I need to memorize some terms, but I think that's it..</p>

<p>Sleep. Unless you're a habitual night owl, the last thing you need is to be falling asleep while looking at the fluorescent white AP test. </p>

<p>I'm prepping the same. I took a practice multiple choice about an hour ago, and am going over literary terms. If you have practice packets, I'd suggest combing through and finding literary terms that you have never seen before. </p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>lang is going to kick my ass. seriously, i am a ****ing slow reader</p>

<p>omg i am feeling the stress right now. this morning i woke up and i was freaking out even though i wasn't taking the test today. ahhhh...i'll be happy when stats done tomo and bio's done next monday. whew. i hope it isnt tht hard to score a 4 on stats =[ considering...i've been cramming these past couple of days</p>

<p>Wow, the first thing you guys can do is BREATHE!!!!! I have four AP tests in a row starting tomorrow, and you don't see me freaking out. Last year was more of the same, I was totally relaxed, got two 5s and a 4. Trust me, you'll do worse if you're freaking out like this. So BREATHE!!!!! And it'll be all good!! :) :) ;)</p>
