haha. apush this year was pretty easy
MC: Pretty easy except for a couple of obscure ones that I left blank. I probably got 74/80 or so.
DBQ: Really easy. I wrote 5 pages
FRQ #1: Yeah, this was bad. I only wrote 3 pages and I kept repeating myself.
FRQ #2: Really easy. 4 pages. =)

MC for me
skip 7
probably 20 missed

DBQ- pretty much BEST ever!!! about a 7
#3- about a 6
#4- about a 6

haha....pretty pessimistic here....but that is always good

I thought the MC was relatively easier compared to the past tests and other practices that we did in our class.

FR was okay. I did 2 and 4. I read a section on AMSCO about 2 so I was pretty confident on that one. #4 wasn't bad as I thought it would be at the instance I saw the question. I started remembering things and just kept adding up.

But for DBQ, I expect a lower score since I made one significant error of name calling. Other than that, I wrote 3 entire pages on it.

Do they count off a lot if you make a huge mistake on a name (person, place, event, etc.)

shoeboylhs · 05-09-2008, 06:53 PM

^^^ lol.....probably not....that is if they even READ in that much detail

xplosnsnthesky · 05-09-2008, 06:55 PM

ughhh, seeing so many confident people makes me so nervous. :/

i thought the MC was pretty easy, maybe -10 or so.
when i saw the DBQ i was like, YES I KNOW THIS, but i don't think my essay was as good as it could've been. i really don't know. 6/7?
FRQs were killer. ): I wrote some bs and am hoping for a 4/5.

my essays were so short compared to everyone else's.

shoeboylhs · 05-09-2008, 06:57 PM

^^^^^

hey dont worry about....the guys here are like the TOP of the class....with raws scores like 179/180....so...yeah....you probably did fine compared to "normal people"....

collegebound2009 · 05-09-2008, 07:07 PM

i'm really confused. what term did you guys misinterpret? "reality"?

I hope i didnt make the same mistake because I thought immediately that it was asking did the south really change that much.

What constitutes "super easy" MC? Missing 1-2? Or missing 10?

Canefanatic · 05-09-2008, 07:14 PM

hmm i feel kinda bad i wrote only like a page for each of the FRQ. how do you guys come up with 4+?

zfox001 · 05-09-2008, 07:22 PM

I thought the MC was super easy. Like i seriously thought that the SAT subject test was harder.
I think I got four wrong. But i answered all of them.
The DBQ was awesome....super easy...we just did that in class. I wrote 5 pages!
the second essay was okay....i definitely passed but I probably got like a 6
the third essay wasn't too bad either. I think I might have gotten a 7.

trabia-wind · 05-09-2008, 07:38 PM

MC - wtheck. i didn't know half of those obscure people. =P and i was falling asleep during the second half haha
DBQ - good thing i made my friend summarize the vietnam war for me before school...
FRQ - most intense bsing session ever, esp on #2.. ahahha

haha i don't care anymore. i'll take a 4.

@collegebound2009, it was the phrase in quotes

i wasn't familiar with the expression but i think i was sufficiently vague enough to discuss it anyway

flamingspirits00 · 05-09-2008, 08:27 PM

mc's i got owned. i left about 25-30 blank and i had about 3 but i really didnt watn to guess. the frq were easier for me though i probably didnt use enough details.

RDL723 · 05-09-2008, 10:16 PM

---collegebound that is what i assumed as well, but it is not the case. For the last of the three choices (cant say what) the quoted idea involved worsening -the third category-.

Missing around 3-5 with none left blank.
