| Physics make me throw up. Like..seriously.
If this year's testmakers put an electromagnetic induction problem in FRQ, I'm going to draw big circles and triangles on my page and die. | |

| My teacher hasn't taught me one god dam thing this year. I'm trying my hardest to study w/ PR to learn ANYTHING but after looking at some MC and FR questions from past exams, I'm figuring the BEST I can do is a 3, and I'm probably gonna end up with a 2. If I do do that bad, I think I'm gonna cancel my score or something.
I have 4 AP tests next week...+ 1 I'm self studying for that I haven't really started studying for.

| On the 1 practice we took in class..
44% raw on MC (no formulas = fail)
82% raw on FR (formula sheet saved me)
Darn I absolutely hate that class. I mean, I like it, but it's so freakin hard to understand all the concepts and memorize the stupid formulas for the MC part (which is COMPLETELY ridiculous).
This is what I get for not taking GT/Honors Physics and skipping straight to AP | |

| Wow. Such optimism for physics lol.
I'm probably going to end up with a three, but if things go super well and I have a few revelations about induction and nuclear physics, I might get a 4 or something like that.
I agree that FRQs are way easier than MCQs. On the last one I took with no preparation I got -30. I dunno. We'll see how it goes. It'll be a crazy weekend... | |

| How can I get access to the multiple choice questions from previous years. If I purchase from AP central, do then send it online or mail it? I'm in Canada so that could be a problem with time running out! Can anyone send me the MC questions? My school does not offer the course so I'm self-studying & will be the only one taking the Physics C exam. | |

| Haha I'm in the same situation. Don't worry...physics B isn't that hard, although I guess it's kind of gay with no formulas :/ | |

| physics B has way too many topics for it to be a single AP test. It's ridiculous. | |

| I hate anything to do with nuclear physics and magneticism. Anyway, I have a nice problem for you guys.
How much work have I done on the AP study system?
A. 0 joules
B. 10 joules
C. 20 joules
D. 30 joules
E. -10000 joules | |

| B, you wrote the word "physics" which requires work | |

| My teacher hasn't really taught us crap.
At this point, I'd be happy with a 2. Seriously. | |

| I hate when teachers do that. I don't need the added pressure!
lol, my calc teacher expected me to pass easily, but after those FRQs.... :S | |
