<p>I dont know. All my teacher said was "if you have 50% correct on the MC, you're passing!". So I'm like... ok...</p>
<p>can someone plz send me multiple choice tests from previous yrs. I really really need em. also i need the answers w/ them. I need to get a 5 on the B test. thank you</p>
<p>Are there negative points for answering the MC questions, i.e., do you lose 1/4 point for a wrong answer?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Ummm...Can anyone tell me about the bare basics of torque and angular momentum? My teacher never went over that in class, and I'm too lazy to look on sparknotes =p</p>
<p>torque = Force x distance from the axis of rotation </p>
<p>I don't think angular momentum is tested? Anyone confirm this?</p>
<p>plz anyone i really need actual physics B MC tests w/ the answers. my chem teacher says that doing alot of MC and then correcting ur mistakes will get u passing score. btw for his ap chem class he has 80% pass rate. His name is Dr. Lachman, if any of you kno him.</p>
<p>If anyone has 5 Steps to a 5, do u agree w/ this last-minute plan for review?</p>
<p>I'm thinking of reading all the rapid review sections (summaries of the KEY concepts of each chapter/topic), taking notes on them. Then, I'll take practice tests and go back into the text for the topics I have the MOST trouble in. On the side, I can work on memorizing the formulae.</p>
<p>I also have PR, and I guess I can use its review questions as a supplement. Does anyone have any better ideas at this point?</p>
<p>Haha... should I sign up for Physics C, LAST-MINUTE and take that in place of Phyics B, JUST TO HAVE THE EXTRA 2 WEEKS TO STUDY BEFORE THE ALTERNATE TESTING DATE?? LOL, that would be a drastic/extreme measure! LOL, I wouldn't do that ;)</p>
<p>I'd appreciate any advice though! Thanks :)</p>
<p>I don't think angular momentum is tested, and yes, you do get the -.25 penalty for wrong answers.</p>
<p>hmm APDoolittle-- is 5 Steps a good book? I've been mainly studying of the PR book (actually I haven't started..) and it's mainly examples...</p>
<p>I love how PR is mainly examples!! It helped TREMENDOUSLY for AP Calc!</p>
<p>Yes 5 Steps to a 5 is very good! The review containts JUST what you need for the exam!</p>
<p>Here's a link to 5 Steps on Amazon: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0071437134/sr=8-1/qid=1146704649/ref=sr_1_1/002-0600285-8379243?%5Fencoding=UTF8%5B/url%5D">http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0071437134/sr=8-1/qid=1146704649/ref=sr_1_1/002-0600285-8379243?%5Fencoding=UTF8</a></p>
<p>Check out readers' reviews on it. It should offer you some insight. Get crackin' on your review btw!! ;)</p>
<p>What does everyone else think about my review plan (scroll up for it)? Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>can you sign up for ap exams this late in the game?</p>
<p>Haha, that was just a joke. I think it's possible if your school insists. I doubt it would work out though L;)L</p>
<p>You can come in as a standby. I'm doing it for psychology at my school just because something went wrong in the registration at the appropriate time.</p>
<p>anybody have MC exams?</p>
<p>haha. i know lachman. he teaches at santiago. from what i know, his ap chem teaching methods are legendary</p>
<p>anyway, back to physics. a 60% of the raw score on the multiple choice is on track for a 5, right? i think princeton review estimates a 75% score is good enough for a 5 because a higher percentage correct accounts for the missed points for incorrect answers, and therefore, it should put in good position for a 5. we took a physics MC in our class, i think it was the 1998 version? anyway, i got 47/70 right and ended up with a raw score that hovered right above a 60%, at 42.5 points. our teacher said that just cuts it for a 5, i just wanted to know if anyone could verify that?</p>
<p>apdoo, i also have the 5 steps to a 5 and i think its awesome also. its concise. princeton review is just too much review, and too many examples to cram. so yeah im cramming physics now at 1:45 am. im on magnetism.</p>
<p>oh, and here's my take on PR:
i think some of the questions they have on there are far too complicated to show up on an MC portion of the AP exam, while others are fairly accurate. however, as much as i am against overprepping for standardized tests (refer to my distaste for barrons math IIC), i think PR does it right for physics. it's questions are more conceptual based as opposed to calculating values, which is what most of the multiple choice looks like. it's comprehensive and just abouts hit everything, but i'm sure if one knows all the topics inside and out covered in the book, they'll ensure themselves a passing grade, probably even a 5. </p>
<p>but what do i know, i haven't taken the test yet. i've been going through PR though and i'm feeling fairly confident going into the test</p>
<p>Sunkist by any chance do u have the answers for the test you took. Btw, what school do ya go to?</p>
<p>I use Giancoli for the text book at my school... does anyone else use Giancoli? If so, how would you rate it? (just to be curious).</p>
<p>And also, I think PR is the best book for AP Physics.</p>
<p>using PR right now. very good for the concepts. mainly learn the concepts and u should be good for the MC.</p>
<p>so i have a question... its pretty damn simple but im bored, and dont wanna study for SAT II Physics</p>
<p>You have a block that has 4 equal magnitude force acting on it. Each force has a magnitude of 10 N, and the block has a mass of 5 kg. Which of the following CANNOT be the acceleration of the block?</p>
<p>a) 2 m/s^2
b) 4 m/s^2
c) 6 m/s^2
d) 8 m/s^2
e) 10 m/s^2</p>
