<p>me. am screwed like nothing else. </p>
<p>will try my darndest anyway. humph.</p>
<p>There is no way you can get a 5 by not answering any free response.</p>
<p>Dude. so screwed. our teacher only went through like 40% of the material in class. he's such a stoner.</p>
<p>I went through most of the rest, but im totally clueless on the 5-kingdom survey and animal reproduction. Oh yeah and those labs... that lab essay question is going to be fun, eh?</p>
<p>I'm hecka worried about the essay part. actually the MC too. gosh.</p>
<p><em>dies</em></p>
<p>thats what i thought until today, when I actually took the exam. don;t worry it's not hard. In fact, I thought some the practice tests that I took from review books were harder! ;)</p>
<p>Here's how he calculates the raw score:</p>
<p>MC = [# correct - 1/4(# wrong)].75 = 110(.75) [he said the new format only has 110 MC questions.. can anyone confirm this?] = 82.5
FR = # points total x 1.5 = 40(1.5) = 60</p>
<p>MC + FR = 142.5</p>
<p>I'm assuming he means 48-52 out of 142.5 for a 3. <em>shrugs</em> Who knows?</p>
<p>caesar55... you took the ACTUAL exam? how?</p>
<p>I live in Japan!!!!! (stupid 60 second rule...)</p>
<p>ahhh wow. probably different tests, but do you have any advice as to what i should do with my last few hours of studying?</p>
<p>im going to stay up all night... better to know something than nothing... and yea it should be pretty easy...to get a decent score</p>
<p>I'm on the verge of a nervous break down. Ughhh!! So much stuff. I'm going to try to reread Cliffs.</p>
<p>Ahhh................ Prepare for the essays in general (i think we get different essays though). The MC are straight forward, and you'll probably do fine if you studied steadily throughout the year. Good luck! :)</p>
<p>oh and theres only 100 mc questions with 80 minutes to do them...(used to be 120 questions or something around there and 90 minutes to do them) then we have 10 min to look at essay questions,but we dont get to write them, and then we have 90 minutes to write</p>
<p>you take this test in japan?!?! what the heck?</p>
<p>To be Straight... sleep for now</p>
<p>I don't even want to think about the scoring and figure out what I need in each section... not like I can control my points like you guys</p>
<p>I don't even have Cliff's Notes or anything of that sort. (one big textbook + handouts) I'm not nervous at all because I ... know nothing</p>
<p>Ah... Chem AP was fun ...</p>
<p>[by an idiot who actually lost it]</p>
<p>HAHAHA guess what!??!!</p>
<p>I thought I was getting a FIVE for sure..because all I needed was a 2 on my essays...</p>
<p>right now..i just realized that i calculated my score wrong on my practice test (haha I didnt notice i had to multiply by .7563 and i did not notice i typed in wrong numbers...)... argh! why are there so many things to subtract and multiply by!???</p>
<p>yes.....................</p>
<p>lol...wanna tell us the essay questions that you got in japan?</p>
<p>nooooo............ :D</p>
<p>EDIT- guys relax, it's not that hard, wait... in fact its really easy. Yesterday, I took Cliffs' Practice Test, and I was devastated when I got 40 wrong, yes 40! But I when I walked out of the exam, I knew I got above a 4 for sure.</p>
<p>....whyy notttt</p>
<p>Don't cheat ^^. anyways, I bet cb reads this board too. Sadists :p.</p>
