I read around here most have exams this week, which I do also, but is anyone taking any Advanced Placement Exams? If so, what have been your scores in the past, and what did you do for studying.

I got one left, so I might as well try my hardest on it, (tomorrow).

Anyway, I've got AP Stats, Psyche, and US History.

I've taken AP US History, AP World History, and AP Computer Science. I'm going to take AP Psychology tomorrow and AP English Language on Wednesday. I took World History last year, the rest are this year, and I got a 4 on it.

Were you all assigned workbooks there as well...

And what studying have you done on what areas? Do you know what we'll be tested on?

Thanks!

Nope, just textbooks .

As in what have I studied on my own? Or what am I studying for the exam? I just took a practice and that's all I really did to study. I'm not much of a studier, but I can make the grades, so it doesn't matter .

Heh, that was pretty stupid. I thought the hardest part were the free response's. I didn't understand what #4 was asking for a while (the game layout one), then #1 I didn't know how I could divide up a string into individual letters, so I just used Scanner . I think I did okay on the one where you had to add the pouncefish, and the other one I don't remember.

I thought US History was actually not that bad, at least the multiple choice. The essays were okay, I did 3 and 5 (On Second Great Awakening and Presidential Landslides). I though Reagan didn't win by a landslide though, but figured out he did afterwards . I think I did good on Nixon, because he was just Watergate and corruption, although he did have a good foreign policy. Then I did cult of domesticity and temperance for the two causes. I think I did decent on that and the DBQ (always easy). Overall, I'm about 90% sure I got at least a 3, and I'm hoping and thinking I probably got a 4.

EDIT: By the way, I think everyone knows since they tell you about 5 times during the test, but you can discuss the free response 48 hours after the test, and NEVER the multiple choice (for some reason?). Just saying it might be a good idea not to discuss the free responses tomorrow and Wednesday for a couple days. I doubt anyone would notice or care, but just in case...

Because they changed it so you cannot change your username, so I'm forever stuck with SSS. Otherwise I would've changed it.

Hahaha, everyone in my class who took the APUSH Exam, all think they got a 1 or a 2. The multiple choice was stupid, I mean, one question, what happend etc etc in 1798. And then the next question, who did what etc etc etc in 1963. It skipped all the time on those questions by centuries, so there were few clusters of common era questions, which was awkward.

The DBQ for that was easy, but the free responses I had some difficulty with. I did the question about what Theodore Roosevelt did in office, like traits, and what was their purpose. The others ones were a bit too difficult.

I only asked because I noticed you were essentially talking in this thread as two different personas. Oh well.

I emailed Rich months ago and he still hasn't responded back.
