<p>student, don't worry about now..complain tomorrow - go to sleep now!</p>
<p>I am on the west coast. And its Saturday night i am just watching NBA on TNT</p>
<p>ehh whats complaining going to do?... it's not like they're gonna cancel all the scores or even give us extra points... they're just going to say sorry and say they gonna "fix" it next time</p>
<p>LOL - sorry!!! see i am on the east coast and its 1240 - and im really tired...but i can't sleep because since morning i have been chatting on this site, responding and everything, and now every time somebody replies, i get an email in my inbox...basically, an email comes every 2 mins, and then i respond. there's a chain reaction over here. hmmmm - lucky for u u get to watch tv and im studying for ap exams....FANTASTIC!
Then if u have the time, can u please figure out how we are going to complain...</p>
<p>kp - that's a good point...but there's a possibility that it might help our curve for this exam - or maybe not - so U have a good point...then no complain? me go to sleep :O</p>
<p>haha. i got 750 on this test last year and it was a really hard curve or something, and a good friend of mine barely ever missed any in practice and got a 760. fun test though.</p>
<p>well that's not promising :(
I took a pt and got a 770 - :(
How's the curve for 5 wrong? 9 wrong?</p>
<p>Whatever i am still going to let Collegeboard know that they were bad questions. If they agree they will dismiss the questions and it wont count agianst you. I have heard cases in which they have done it before..... so i am not going to loose anything if i complain.......</p>
<p>and i need to study for APs too but i have had mocks and i studied for them like quite a lot so i feel ready and i am just going to study more but i am not stressing.</p>
<p>COMPLAIN HERE:</p>
<p>what if CB just hates our complaints and gives us -50 points punishment :D(without letting us know)</p>
<p>So here's what we're complaining about:
The bio test was too general. For ex. the bird problem should have specified which type (modern day, or old) because the old bird, Archaeopteryx, had teeth. In addition, for the mutation problem, they were all mutations. For a punnet square, it did not specify if the father was heterozygous or homozygous for the huntington's disease. </p>
<p>Does anyone else have any other reason?</p>
<p>i think the last question involving when the greatest decrease of bacteria was observed was also very ambiguous because people could take it as day 4 or day 2. i personally took it as day 2.
Also the tay sach's question, because its a problem with enzymes and they are made in the ribosomes so thats technically the root cause of it.</p>
<p>This might be silly, but there was a question like
What does not have a defined nucleus?
It was either bacteria or green algae</p>
<p>I checked it up, and bacteria is definiely right, but what about green algae?!</p>

<p>OK, listen carefully. The answer to the above question, which may not be the exact questions as written on the exam, is E.</p>
<p>Teeth are not a characteristic of birds. This is one of the reasons why Archaeopteryx is considered a transition species: It has reptilian characteristics that include certain skeletal structures and teeth.</p>
<p>The question doesn't ask which of the following is never found in any bird-like creature, it is asking which is not considered to be a characteristic of birds.</p>
<p>I'm also sure respiratory was spelled correctly in whatever the original question looked like.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Did you check out green algae when you checked out bacteria?</p>
<p>green algae are protists, protists have a true nucleus... problem solved</p>
<p>Algae are eukaryotes, so they should have a membrane-bound nucleus as opposed to bacteria, which are prokaryotes and have a nucleoid region.</p>
<p>for that bacteria/urine problem, i put day 1 as the biggest decrease...does anyone remember the question.</p>
<p>the mutation question is obviously a change in post-transcription DNA is not a mutation this happens in all human DNA and possibly other organisms too the introns or the noncoding sequences of dna are cut out and the exons the parts of the dna that actually code for proteins remain and are pieced together this is why the post transcription part is much smaller than the original</p>
<p>what's my score if i got 7 wrong?</p>
