Easiest: Gov
Hardest: Chem

Honorable mention: French (normally easy, but there was a huge echo in the listening section, and they let us do it over, but they DIDN'T tell us we'd have to do READING over again as well, and the section was so much harder the second time around.) I hope it didn't bring my grade down, or I'm gonna be so P.O.ed.

Easiest: AP Euro
Hardest: Calc. Because I didn't study. Otherwise, I think it would have been easier.

Easiest - either Calc BC because of the curve or Chemistry if you don't take the curve into account
Hardest - art history by far

Easiest: English Language.

This test was an absolute JOKE, the MC (which is 45% of your grade) is far easier than SAT critical reading passages.

The essays are completely bs-able and anyone with decent writing ability will fare very well. It's a free 5, even if you can't write that well...

I did not prepare for the exam at all...junior year honors english was more than enough preparation. If you are confident in your writing abilities, take this AP. You do not need preparation.

Hardest: AP Chemistry

I actually didn't find it that hard, but it nailed me and I got a 4 so I have no right to say anything. I still wonder how that happened, but oh well. Chem is difficult because you need to know concepts to a deeper level and apply some math as well...it isn't as straightforward as bio, which is much easier.

(Opinion based on immediately after AP)
Easiest:Euro
Hardest:APES

Honestly, I studied 6 hours in between January when my class ended and the AP test for APES. I thought I failed because I eliminated most MC down to 2/3 answers and guessed from there. I was sure on 10 questions on the entire thing. I answered the DBQ, 2 FRQ's. Did not answer the second. Euro I thought I did the best. The FRQ's on the make-up were freakishly specific but meh. I thought I had it. MC didn't seem too bad. I actually read my PR book 3 times or so. Read a few chapters in my textbook in-depth. Did some practices at home in PR and Barron's.

In reality:
Bio:5
Calc:5
APES:5
EURO:4 (***.)
