<p>apryleve, it’ll be okay as long as you wrote some relatively solid essays. definitely great shot @ getting a 4-- 5 might be a reach but definitely possible!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>true. i had form R. but most of my friends had Q and thought they were easy, who knows?</p>
<p>
I had form Q, I thought it was easy. I didn’t omit any questions.</p>
<p>The essays killed me. My DBQ was average length I suppose, but I spent way too much time on it and rushed the FRQs, I didn’t even finish the last one. I’m terrible at timed essays.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That shouldn’t affect you at ALL if you get the rest of them right. Keep your chin up.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That doesn’t make you dumb at all!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I mean I’m not certain, but wasn’t republicanism much more conducive to the REST of that quote? I’m pretty sure it was more descriptive than what the initial poster of the question said…it wasn’t that simple!</p>
<p>I wouldn’t be talking specifics if I were you…</p>
<p>We got form q.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>agreed! be more careful! x)</p>
<p>what’s the policy regarding mc discussion?
48 hours like the essays or is it technically not allowed?</p>
<p>
@RedCatharsis
I definitely got some of them wrong. But probably <10.
But like I said, I’m expecting on the essays: DBQ - 7, FQR - 5,3</p>
<p>MC can’t EVER be discussed.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I like to think so. But I guess it’s a matter of opinion. 
</p>
<p>I personally thought the year as a whole was easier. For one, I just really like American history. Second, my APUSH teacher is absolutely wonderful; we all adore him. He’s one of those rare good ones that is genuinely passionate about the subject he teaches. He does it because he loves to teach, and he really went in depth and taught us a lot. We thought we were better prepared for APUSH than we were for Euro, even though we had not finished the APUSH curriculum. As for the test itself, I heard A LOT of complaints about the multiple choice. Personally, I don’t think I did awful on it. I know I didn’t go 80 for 80, but I think I could’ve gotten ~55-60 correct. Everyone was really psyched about the essays. General feelings were pretty good.</p>
<p>Was there any real difference between forms Q and R? I just assumed it was the order of the MC choices, not the questions themselves. </p>
<p>I know the essays were the same for all.</p>
<p>48 hours for the essays, never for the MC. Keep it in mind guys.</p>
<p>I got form R, and I thought the test was really easy. I did 2 and 4. Answered every MC, had time to check my work, and I thought I wrote solid essays. My #4 wasn’t the strongest [only 2 pages], but my dbq [4 pages] and #2 [ 3 pages], were pretty solid. </p>
<p>Pretty sure I got a 5. Crash course was a godsend considering we learned absolutely nothing the whole year. I wish I had a real teacher since I like ush, but I’ll settle for the 5 lol.</p>
<p>i’m pretty sure it’s just the order…all the tests have to be the same, otherwise it’d give an unfair advantage</p>
<p>the multiple choice was ridiculously hard towards the latter half of the questions…i answered all but one, but i probably got anywhere up to twenty wrong. then again, i only started studying two or three days ago with flashcards and a few pages of notes, and i didn’t even take the ap course (just honors).
also, it’s hardly ever worth omitting answers. just ignore what they tell you about losing a quarter of a point unless you can’t narrow any of the answers down at all</p>
<p>dbq was easy. i didn’t use one of the documents, but i did incorporate a lot of outside information. i did 2 and 4 for the frqs, loved 4. i wrote about eight pages in total and i have really small handwriting</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That’s wonderful :)</p>
<p>I feel that as long as if I don’t get more than 20 wrong on the MC, which I really really hope I didn’t, I should be pretty well on a way to a 5 because of how my essays turned out.</p>
<p>Now…if they deduct points for hand writing…</p>
<p>:[</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Okay, so with that score, we should expect about a 96/1180 meaning a 4! (If you miss all 10 MC).</p>
<p>Let’s assume you only miss 4 MC and get 46 right, plus you get a 7 on the DBQ and a 6 and a 6 on the FRQ. Then you get a 115 which is exactly a point above the needed 114/180 for a 5.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>You’re still in the running!</p>
<p>APUSH is done!!! I thought the multiple choice was much easier than the ones from the REA review. For the FRQ, i chose 2 & 5. I was not expecting a DBQ to be on slavery- just kind of bs’ed it.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>But I feel that it was a good period for there to be a slavery question, since there was little or no actual MAJOR MAJOR legislation yet passed concerning the topic :</p>
<p>Gag rule anyone? (Even if not yet official, rhetorically!)</p>
<p>Question: I wasn’t aware that you get penalized for guessing wrong. I thought that you only got penalized if you didn’t attempt answering it.</p>
<p>In terms of # of pages how do you count a page? just one side=1 pg? Or both sides of a paper=1 pg?</p>
<p>I was so ready for it to be terrible, because I know ridiculously little about Jackson, the Second Bank of the US, etc… and then it was not bad at all! Particularly the free response, though I just realized I didn’t specifically QUOTE anything in the DBQ - I just cited sources. Hopefully that won’t affect it too terribly. I was unsure on ~20 of the MC, but I could eliminate at least 2 on most of those, so maybe the odds are okay. Anyway, I feel so much better about it now than I did 8 hours ago!</p>
<p>I bsed the FRQs. I made a little more sense on my DBQ.</p>
<p>uggh oh yea and crash course helped on like 3 questions… rip off.</p>
