<p>BOO! :D</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>yes. i say this without any hesitation. It was calcualtion heavy - questions which we generally do for long-answer kind of stuff, it was boring, it had unwieldy numbers (we arent allowed to use calculators) and there wasnt enough time.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p><wondering what=“” that=“” was=“” about…=“”></wondering></p>

<p>hmmmm… someone i know got 245 on the BITSAT… is that good enough for BITS? 245 was the highest in his centre btw…</p>

<p>(i am completely clueless of all these entrance test thingy’s)</p>

<p>yea, i agree with all the ppl there, aieee math was bad! phy and chem ok, but math killed all of us!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>i dont think so. i got 335 and i dont think i’ll get in. i know people with 400+ - not many, though, maybe 10 or 12.</p>

<p>shashank, BOO :smiley: was a way of saying I was there :D</p>

<p>I didn’t write AIEEE - but my friends did, including the one whose birthday was today :p</p>

<p>please tell me that a) this is not representative of an average AP Physics class or b) AP Physics B is some sort of thing for kids or c)i am missing something very fundamental, like these guys are still in their 10th or something like that.</p>

<p>EDIT - and how does this compare to the average A-level class?</p>

<p>I think Physics C’s slightly tougher - but it covers less topics.</p>

<p>slightly tougher?!?!?!? I’ve got to know more - much more - than what these people seem to to ****ing pass my CBSE board exams. Arent APs supposed to be, um, ***HARD? , or maybe ADVANCED??? *** and these guys get into MIT without much of a hassle, huh… :mad:</p>

<p>really?? hmmm… mpost of my friends in bbay thought the highest in india was 375… this is gonna disappoint them…</p>

<p>hahah… i saw that AP thing… i hate science and i studied exactly 2 days of physics (2 days before my HSC paper, that it) and i could answer all that!!!</p>

<p>wow its ridiculous…</p>

<p>Does the link given by Shash_rao direct to students discussing Physics AP?</p>

<p>Adides,we are in comparison better at our 11-D thoughts and the Vector nature of time !</p>

<p>FlameT, keep updating me about the Debate. </p>

<p>Send in the possible list of topics that may be discussed/debated.</p>

<p>I just hope I don’t have to take PHY 101 just because I didn’t take an AP Physics Test :eek:</p>

<p>~sucharita : "I just hope I don’t have to take PHY 101 just because I didn’t take an AP Physics Test "</p>

<p>What does that mean?</p>

<p>sucharita, it may be a good idea to just take the damn APs immediately. I dont think it’ll take much effort, just as long as you can figure out how one goes about taking the things in India.</p>

<p>dont waste frkn 120 bucks on a bloody AP sucrita. there’s those placement things…</p>

<p>too late shashank. APs are in May and in order to take them, you have to register wayyy in advance (like Akash did, smart guy :mad: )</p>

<p>Shabin, taking AP tests and scoring above a certain grade in them earns you credits and exempts you from introductory level courses. It will be unnecessarily time-consuming (not to mention exceedingly galling) to take introductory courses in subjects like Physics when I already know everything that the AP guys do though I haven’t taken the exam. The problem of time management will be compounded by the fact that I’ll have to deal with stuff like learning a new language and catching up with the Arts and Humanities, the study of which I had pretty much relegated to a shadowy corner of my mind over the past 2 years.</p>

<p>yeah astrix I have no intention of spending that money - but I couldn’t even if I wanted to.</p>

<p>The placement exams are a good option - I know they exist but the website is not very easy to navigate and the departmental sites are suitably vague about them, apart from the Math dept.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>haha…that is true…AP Exams are crap…I passed all my AP Examps without doing much. The CBSE/CET exams are much tougher.</p>
