<p>I didnt write my FRQs in essay format for my AP psych exam but i didnt list it out like</p>
<ul>
<li>Circadian Rythm- if she dosen’t sleep she will be irritable</li>
</ul>
<p>I went into much more depth with complete senteces i just used bullets for each point I was making</p>
<p>will that hurt?</p>
<p>Well, the exam CLEARLY tell us to write an essay.
Having bullets would be like writing reports.
Did you write any intro or conclusion?</p>
<p>I did mine in bullets. My teacher said it was OK to use bullets, like you were defining something. As long as you have have the right information, the reader has to give you the point.</p>
<p>There’s nothing you can do about it now…</p>
<p>Help with what? Cool it dude, the test is over and done with, there’s nothing ANYBODY can do about it.</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure I read that no credit will be issued for essays presented in outline format. :/</p>
<p>It is good to note that the test is already over. The instructions never mentioned anything about it. It is FREE RESPONSE! you can write whatever and however the hell you want to write it.</p>
<p>Okay, people have this crazy belief that using bullets and/or labeling your paragraphs is bad. This probably stemmed from the, “outlines will NOT be scored,” thing. All this really means is that you need to have paragraphs, and full sentences. In fact, I remember glancing at the instructions on this years FR, and they clearly indicate to label your paragraphs. </p>
<p>Still don’t believe me? Here’s further proof. In my 2004 released exam book, they have sample essays, and the ways they were scored (they were actual essays written by the students). Only one of the essays had an introduction and conclusion, and this one didn’t even score the highest mark. Furthermore, an exam that was done completely in paragraphs that were bulleted got a score of 5/8. </p>
<p>Here’s an example:</p>
<p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>Essays 1, 2, and 3, would get the exact same score, while the outline would not score.</p>
