<h1>5 was very easy except last part which is worth like only 3 points</h1>
<h1>2 the main clue was for the 11 people meaing 10 parts</h1>
<p>OK, hate to double post, but I’m wondering here…I answered 64 of the 70 questions on multiple choice, and was fairly confident about most of them. However, on the essay part, I only answered 1, 2, and 3 completely, all but the last part of 4, rushed through 5, and then wrote random stuff down for 6. Assuming I got 1, 2, and 3 completely correct (45 points), and some of 4 correct (let’s say 57 points), would a 57/80 be enough to balance out a, say, 50/70?</p>
<p>And this is assuming I get credit for all of 1, 2, and 3, and only 3 points off for 4.</p>
<p>Does anyone think I have a chance at getting a 5? I have no idea what the curve is like for this test, so I’m really wondering.</p>
<p>i think your chances for a 5 are reasonably good if you really nailed 15 points for each of the first three questions… right now, i see myself getting somewhere around 54 raw score points on the free response, which could be enough to make up the sub-60% raw score on my MC…</p>
<p>i dont know! let’s estimate how much each part of the free response was worth… or do we have to wait for 48 hours to discuss that?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>err…okay, I don’t want to discuss test questions. But I definitely did not use your method, and I’m fairly confident mine was correct. I just went over it again, and it seems correct, at least.</p>
<p>I’m wondering if there was more than one way to approach the problem…or, for that matter, if there really was one correct answer.</p>
<p>it doesn’t seem plausible that there could be only one way to approach number 2. i know i mentioned something about graphing the position v. time graph using the measurements and look at the derivative to find the velocity… i didn’t get all the way to the acceleration though… god, all i want is like 5 points on the questions, that would be AMAZING.</p>
<p>Of course there isn’t one correct answer; I’m actually quite interested in any of the really creative solutions out there for this problem. Actually, I couldn’t help but write some really silly comments regarding the pistol… :p</p>
<p>bust a cap in the runner’s ass and see how fast he accelerates after that (=</p>
<p>Well, my first thoughts after reading the list involved imagining one of my physics classmates getting his hands on a pistol… So yeah something along those lines, sunkist16. Hmmm… extra pts for geeky physics humor?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Thats what I wrote too…Although, I didnt use the word derivative… I figured the grader might really anal about me using a calculus term and hence used the word Slope ;)</p>
<p>I had no clue on the work/heat diagram and when it said “state 3”, I wrote “um, Massachusetts?”</p>
<p>I later proceeded to draw a frowning face pointing a pistol labeled AP Physics towards its head. I made sure to label that the pistol was taken from F.R. number 2 :)</p>
<p>considering part b asked how each instrument that was checked off in part a is to be used… that might just score you some points (:</p>
<p>by the way… 64% = 5 about 51% for a 4 (those are approximate… it varies like 1-3% per year maybe)</p>
<p>And this is supposed to test our preparedness for college? If we get D’s on our tests, we’re ready?</p>
<p>Honestly, all this AP stuff seems like one big scam!</p>
<p>I’m confident I got a 5.</p>
