Who thought gov

<p>Calculus will be a different story…god darnit >.<!!!</p>

<p>Calculus will be easy! :)</p>

<p>Hah, you’re funny.</p>

<p>wats teh ccutoff more or less for a 3?</p>

<p>40? 50?</p>

<p>thanks!</p>

<p>Hahahahaah oh man I’m going to cry after calc. But this was way easy–skipped nothing, did everything “right” on the FRQs, maybe iffy about 2 or 3 mc. Politics is my thing, though–it all goes downhill from here.</p>

<p>Hmmmm…Gov I thought was going to be hard, but it wasn’t. I should have no trouble in Calc whatsoever (probably because I’m asian). It’s English that’s going to be the killer for me this week. </p>

<p>Three essays!?!!?!?! I’m going to kill myself once I finish the AP exam. @_@</p>

<p>So out of 60 multiple choice questions, I had about 5 or 6 left that I was either iffy on or didn’t know/never learned at all today on my exam. I left about 2 blank since I didn’t have a clue on them, managed to come to an answer on another one or two and then I think I had two left that I managed to get it down to two answers that I could just absolutely not choose between so I left them blank so in the end I think I left 4 blank total. I’m kind of beating myself up now for not guessing on those two that I had narrowed down to two answers on because I didn’t want to be penalized but even if I was, it’d only be half a point and I could’ve gained a point if I had only guessed on those two, ughh! I hate myself! Otherwise, I think I rocked it. Can I still get a 5 even though I left those blank? Think the curve’ll screw me over?</p>

<p>“Calculus will be easy”</p>

<p>pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh are you crazy? obviously you havent seen the FRQ’s and some of the harder questions on the calc section… this crap almost forces you to cheat</p>

<p>I took Calculus BC last year, and it was pretty much the same level of difficulty as this. Actually the multiple choice was probably easier.</p>

<p>Surprisingly there wasnt much questions on court cases, our teacher didnt have time to cover a lot. Yay!</p>

<p>Isn’t the curve for AP Gov like an 86/120. Why are people saying that they skipped like 2 MC problems and think they will get a 4 or a 5 on it. No, you most definitely will get a 5 if you do decent on the Free Response.</p>

<p>us gov was easy but it made comp gov feel that much worse…</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Only the very easiest case</p>

<p>can someone explain how the curve works?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Agreed. Curve will be like 90/120 for a 5.</p>

<p>Are you guys talking about U.S. or comp or both? I took U.S. a few years ago and agree it was the easiest test I’ve ever taken, comp today was a little tougher since I self-studied without most of the studying part but I still thought it was fairly easy, for everybody thinking about how tough calc is as a guy who got a 5 last year I can say don’t worry about the difficulty because the curve is insanely easy… you can bomb a couple parts and still be alright</p>

<p>The Curve is the MC Raw score plus the FR response total multiplied by 60/28 (or w/e). </p>

<p>I’m pretty sure the the FR is always 28 points; it was 28 points I was totaling it up after I finished. I think that it was like Q1 = 8, Q2 = 7, Q3 = 6, Q4 = 7. But in whatever case the MC is 50% and the FR is 50%.</p>

<p>Composite Score = [MC Correct - 1/4 * MC Wrong] + [FR Total * 60/28]. </p>

<p>According to my AP book the curve is as follows:
Mid 80s to 120 = 5
Mid 70s to Mid 80s = 4
High 40s to mid 70s = 3
high 20s to high 40s = 2
0 to high 20s = 1</p>

<p>Easiest test ever. Finished the multiple choice in 15 minutes, didn’t skip any, and don’t doubt my answer on any. And I totally nailed every bullet point of every FRQ. And my teacher sucked.</p>

<p>So easy. Easier than most gov tests I took, I seriously knew what I was talking about. </p>

<p>I’m just worried about the curve…but seriously, stats was pretty easy too, so maybe ap exams are just getting easier…hah.</p>

<p>i kinda thought that the actual exam was easier than one of the tests I took in my class…</p>
