<p>Our IOP are going to be done in groups this semester… Well at least my teacher does his all in groups so if I have him… But we’re each responsible for 12 minutes of the 45 minute presentation</p>
<p>@Cr: Our tests have just been MC so far; we haven’t encountered DBQs yet.</p>
<p>I’m so glad I have APUSH out of the way :)</p>
<p>I’m not going to take APUSH. I have one open class next year so in theory I cold take it, but I doubt I will</p>
<p>I didn’t do so well on my first lab in AP chem. 88/100 I think it should be at least 98/100 though, since I lost 10 points for not having what I learned in my conclusion even though I had it… </p>
<p>I got 22/30 on my pre-lab questions. I lost 5 points for not doing a question, and I also lost points on some responses for being too vague. I feel dumb for losing such easy points. Oh well. </p>
<p>I currently have a B+ in AP chem, but that’s going to change once the test scores are put in.</p>
<p>Does anyone have any good sites for studying for AP Chemistry. Also, does anyone have any helpful study skills?</p>
<p>@SirSam: Read the chapter you’re on. It helps. And do as many practice problems as you can (at least for concepts you’re unsure of). I think Khan Academy has some good chem material as well.</p>
<p>^Last year I skipped art history as well. It was because I got a 99 in the class without learning anything…weird how that happens.</p>
<p>Also-7 AP Exams? Even if you’re going for National AP Scholar, if you have a couple of 4’s and 5’s under your belt already, you’ll be fine without APAH.</p>
<p>@sirsam Look into Adrian Dingle’s website, and apchemsolutions under the student section. Dingle’s website has useful insight with practice multiple choice questions by topic.</p>
<p>Today was great.</p>
<p>It was a half day, plus a B day, meaning I only had one actual class today (pre-calc, and I also had chorus, microsoft apps., and chem w/ study hall). Only 30 minutes were spent on chem, and the rest of class consisted of talking about alcoholic families, what to do if you’re in the water and you see a shark (the correct answer being, “Put your head under water and scream”), 21 Jump Street, and what foods contain silver.</p>
<p>To top it off, all I have for homework is a synthesis essay for English, a graphic organizer + short answer questions for PUSH, and some pre-calc problems. I haven’t had this little all year. I also have to read chapter 2 of my computer repair book, but that can be put off until the end of the week.</p>
<p>Oh, and I got my PWNtheSAT book in the mail today. Time to commence the 2-week cram session.</p>
<p>Anything good happen to you all today?</p>
<p>Not really :(, every Wednesdays I have choir… and I get home around 6:45-ish which sucks because I have AP Chemistry book work, AP Biology chapter 23 review sheet, American Studies II reading guide and review work. Estimated completion time: about midnight. It seems like I get the most homework on Wednesdays…</p>
<p>Also we started our first lab in AP Chem today~ Yay~! We’re making CuSO4 . 5H2O and we just got done the first part.</p>
<p>Are you using the book by Hostage and Fossett?</p>
<p>Blah besides for my schedule completely sucking arse, my Ap Biology teacher doesnt have the apt knowledge to teach a class the new curriculum. I’ve been self studying for about a week almost and I just get lazy. I need motivation :(</p>
<p>The only good part about my day was the college admission officer giving me a CollegeBoard SAT Book. Everything else ehh.</p>
<p>@lvykid, I know how your feeling. My world history teacher is like so slowwww with everything. He is also teaching stuff I already know or can know very easily. I told him I would like to be challenged because am self studying for AP Workd History (school does not have no APs) and he gaves me a easy chapter synopsis on Guns, Germs, and steel -____-. Finished that on break.</p>
<p>@lldm21 I really don’t know, she just gives us handouts that she makes herself.</p>
<p>Today, my flute teacher said I’d be a great music major. :3 I was so flattered.</p>
<p>Woohoo 98 percent on calc test.</p>
<p>Josiah: My APUSH class is going so slowly, we’ll be lucky if we’re up to the Great Depression by May. My teacher explains the same thing OVER and OVER and OVER. It drives me up the wall. And it’s stuff I know already, too, so I feel like banging my head against the wall the whole time.
Lucky for my brain cells I’m in a center seat :).</p>
<p>33/35 on my AP Chem test though one point off was so unfair and my teacher doesn’t understand cause she’s turkish but she gave me .5 back and I got .25 back for test corrections on a mc i got wrong so i got a 33.8/35 Yay</p>
<p>I keep seeing people say test corrections. What is that?</p>
