| Well.. I'm indian.. the whole asian-math thing might be it. But, I don't know, I just knew how to do all of it (; and the curve is decent so either way I'm prettttty sure i got a 5. Shocked if it's a 4, but probably won't be anyway. |

| I didnt have any problems with the MC at all... I had to leave section 1 d) of the free-response blank, however... I had no idea what to do.
The rest went fine, hoping for a 5 
Also taking lit, bio, and economics | |

| The MC was totally fine but the free response was awful I think...I'm hoping to do alot better in APUSH and English Language but I'll be happy if I scrape a 4 on this...stupid collegeboard rules about not discussing problems | |

| 1st section was tough for me, 2nd was relatively easy, free response was pretty difficult | |

| The multiple choice was a breeze, and yeah, the FR were challenging, although I thought 2007's were harder. I'm so frustrated on #1 part-d, I figured it out with my left over time during the no-calculator section of the FR, but I couldn't plug it in to my calculator! Hopefully I get partial credit. | |

| I dominated it. 5 for sure.
One or 2 free responses I had minor trouble on (meaning that I'm not 100% sure on the answer, but it still has a good chance of being right). And 1 multiple choice I got wrong for sure, and I'm sure I got a few more wrong that I'm not sure of. But I'll be shocked if I got worse than a 5. | |

| I thought the MC was okay (although I'm a bit concerned about the calculator part; I got some strange patterns of letters). I skipped one question.
FRQ were hard. I have a feeling I made a lot of mistakes. I ran out of time for the calculator part (because I didn't read one question carefully and had to do it all over again), so I had to rush through the non-calculator part in order to finish. Not to mention I lost my eraser and took time looking for it. I didn't realize how to do some of the easy parts until after the test. Dang it!
I'll be happy with a 3. If I fail, my calculus teacher will probably never speak to me again (she had so much faith in me).  | |

| I got raped on the free response but did pretty well on the multiple choice. Hope all of you did terribly so the curve is low for me | |

| And you CAN discuss the free response questions 48 hours after the test. You just can't discuss the MC. | |

| pond problem was common on both AB and BC
with that said, just remember that V = integral of A(x)
you should remember the limits of integration
then Area = bh
you were provided with h
you knew the base (radius)
so you just plugged and chugged....
sorry for being vague; i don't want to get in trouble for discussing | |

| Did anyone notice how on the MC calc section there was a ton of the same letter until the very end?
Totally nailed a 5 but the FRQs took some work to do. | |

| Since it's now been 48 hours we can talk.
1 d) was a volume of known cross-sections problem, similar to 1 c). In 1 c) we were told that R was the side of a square, so you simply integrated side squared from 0 to 2. For 1 d, the base of R was the "length" of a rectangle, and the depth was (3-x), so you integrated side times the base, from 0 to 2.
I actually completely blanked on 3b and c, but nailed every other part of free response--there were maybe 5 mc questions i had issues with. | |
