So, How was the curve for Calc BC?

<p>Any of you guys who already phoned in for your scores, based on what you got, what did you think of this year's calc bc curve? (since the Free Response was killer)</p>

2

<p>in a word, good</p>

3

<p>Well, aren't the calc tests known for having generous curves? I thought it was all right this year - I made some stupid mistakes but still got a 5.</p>

4

<p>I thought it was RIDICULOUSLY hard. Math just isn't my thing. I think it's funny that people on here say that the MC was a "joke." But I couldn't seriously say that any were that easy.</p>

<p>I got a 3. Which I think is pretty good for what I was thinking I had gotten. So...curve is GOOD! </p>

<p>What I think is funny is that I got an AB Sub of 2. Guess I didn't know my AB that well.</p>

<p>Decent. I didn't think the test was too bad after a while. I felt pretty bad about it for about 10 minutes...I got a 5 (subscore 5), but I think the curve should be fairly generous. Some people got tripped by the first and third FRQs. Most didn't know how do to the last one...Don't worry. Calc tests are known for their terrific curves.</p>

<p>christalena2 -- haha i've never an AB subscore lower than the overall grade. awesome! you're one of a kind =)</p>

7

<p>64/108 is a 5 btw</p>

8

<p>DeltaRoyale...where'd you find the cut-off?</p>

<p>"christalena2 -- haha i've never an AB subscore lower than the overall grade. awesome! you're one of a kind =)"</p>

<p>Yay!</p>

10

<p>oh oops. i meant to say "i've never heard an"
didn't make too much sense haha</p>

11

<p>Omg omg OGM O MGOMG PLEASE please please please please PLEASE BE GOOD PLEASE BE GOOD I'm terrified you have no idea I'M TERRIFIED</p>

12

<p>well that was according to the last 2 released tests...and it doesn't change that much since the test changed format in '95</p>

13

<p>Sweet...I got a 5 (subscore 5)...the curve must have been terrific, given that I totally didn't integrate the entire 2nd quadrant for the first FR and missed entirely the equation for the polar equation on question 3.</p>

14

<p>Oh ya, I also missed like 8-12 on the MC part too, so those who are fretting about their scores can rest easy.</p>

15

<p>I completely messed up at least 3/6 FR and still ended up with a 4. And I only did so-so on the MC.</p>

16

<p>Chiez that makes me feel better</p>

17

<p>except I think I probably did a lot worse considering I left an entire fr blank >______________></p>

18

<p>I think I did all right on MC and then bombed free response, and I still got a 4 (subscore 4 as well), so there must have been a pretty big curve.</p>
