@wydlife Thank you so much! I didn't take the ACT through the school (because that's for juniors only), but I signed up for it through act.org and took it through a third-party testing center. Also, I believe AP tests are curved depending on how people do/how difficult it is? Because the boundaries for a 4 or 5 differ from year to year? I may be wrong though!
@phanakin I think my post where I congratulated was deleted, so I'd like to send my congratulations on your great ACT score again! That's awesome!
In terms of AP exams, it depends on each AP exam and when people take it, but you can get a good idea on your possible score from past AP exams from the site: http://appass.com/calculators/home
It is true that the curve is based on how well people do.
Did anyone else take AP Bio today? I thought it was easier than the practice tests so I was wondering what everyone else thought about it just to get a sense of the curve.
@ab2002 I'm really sorry you're going through this. Times like these are very tough, and I can relate heavily. I suffered from toxic friendships quite often, and I know how terrible of a feeling it is. My best tip for when you are surrounded by friends like this is to first re-evaluate yourself. It may be strange, but sometimes thinking about who you are and what you want to be can help you decide what is best for you and what you want to accomplish in your life. Secondly, try to talk to someone you trust. It can be a good and wonderful friend who is not one of those people who you described, a trusted adult, or your parents and/or other family members. Third, if you ever feel sad, feel sad. Whenever you're alone, it's okay to, talk it out and/or write in a journal or on paper about your feelings. Even if you are talking to something that is not real, releasing your emotions and accepting them is a great help.
Lastly, if they keep being toxic, try to politely find ways to spend less time with them. One way you could this is if you eat lunch with them, try finding another table to sit at. Try spending time with your good friends, if you have any, and let them know what is happening without insulting your toxic friends too much. Block your friends from text messages and avoid believing them too much in what they say.
There is so much more I can tell you, so if you need anything, feel free to DM me, if you'd like more. I hope this helped. I hope you remember that out of the people who have existed, do exist, and will exist, there will only be one "you". I hope there's some way you can get out of this situation and maybe even learn something from it as sometimes, it's moments like these where we show our best selves and the people closest to us show how close they are to us.
Calc BC was a killer today. I both desperately want and fear July 9th's coming.
@anthonytheboy Thank you so so much!!!! That's very sweet of you. Also, thank you for the clarification on the curves as well!
@ab2002 I recommend a transition to a safer friends group? It's daunting to cut off friends, no matter how toxic, if you don't have other people to support you.
@phanakin They aren't toxic to me, but they talk bad about a lot of other people. As I am getting more and more involved in the school and student government, I am just not sure if I want that around me. I wish you luck on your Calc BC score! I have AP Euro on Friday, and I am very nervous, because my teachers (excluding AP teachers) do not understand that I have these humongous exams that I actually have to study for. I have a math test tomorrow, and my teacher is making us take a test on Friday.
@trumpetmathgeek I thought it was okay overall. I found the MCQs to be very hard, but the SAQs, LEQs, and DBQs were okay. I won't talk about it more than this because I can't, but I am both nervous and excited to hear about my score.
How was Micro? I am thinking of taking it twelfth grade. I hope it went well!
AP Euro went well! I struggled badly on the multiple-choice (didn’t get to answer 5 of them), but my short answers and my DBQ and LEQ were great. I project a 4.
@ab2002 While I did not take AP Euro and instead took AP World, I can relate. I found that the SAQs, DBQ, and LEQ were fine, but the MCQs I found very hard. I hope you got a good score.
