If you do well enough on the MCQ’s, you don’t even need to do the free response questions.

Well, I was poor on time management and managed to completely only around 2/3 of them, the rest which I didn’t have time to write, and still got my 5.

In other news, having used my AP Bio credit to take a 300-level course in neurobiology, I just spent three sleepless nights prepping for my neurobio exam and I still found myself stuck on 5 of the 40 questions my prof gave me. Well, hopefully 88% is good enough for an A in my class. But really, AP credit didn’t prepare me for this at all … so recognising that there’s a standards gap is necessary.
