Haha, got a 4. I'm happy. I was worried I'd do worse since my teacher ended up leaving halfway throughout the year and I didn't do any studying outside of class. =p

Sadly you don't get a point breakdown.

2012 Global Means for World History FRQ's

As reported by the CB to teachers in the Planning Reports, out of a possible 9 points the global mean for each free response question was as follows: Cricket DBQ - 2.4; Trade Networks comparison - 2.0; Effects of Columbian Exchange CCOT - 1.6.

Only 6.8& of all the students earned a 5 (compare with 8.3% English Lit. and Composition; 11.8% US History; 10.1% Comparative Gov. & Politics; 19.4% Biology; 20.5% Psychology; 24.9 Calculus AB and 50.7% Calculus BC ). Comments?

According to my friend's teacher, who was an AP Reader and has been scoring tests for years, college professors have been really strict with grading. Also, the exams from the room you were tested in tend to be scored by 1 person, possibly 2 different people. So, if your room's tests happened to be scored by a college professor, it's really hard to get a 5 unless your essays and MC were really good.

I'm so happy! I somehow managed to get a 4, even though I didn't read a single page of the textbook. All I did was read PR a couple weeks before the test and then Kaplan the week of the test.

Also taking into consideration the fact that I nearly failed the class, I'm rather content with my score.

I got a 5! I'm surprised I got a 5 considering that I took a normal World History class and didn't start studying until 2 weeks before the test. I wish they gave a score breakdown though; I want to see what I got on the essays (I only did one in practice lol.).

I was shocked to see I got a 5! It was my first AP and my teacher sucked. Thank God I used Princeton Review. Although I thought the essays on the test were rather easy.

I got a 5. History is my best and favorite subject so the exam was rather easy for me. Congrats to all the others who also got 5's (and 4 is a very good grade too).
