<p>take number right on mc minus number wrong times .25 and then multiply that number by 1.125 to get your raw score, then multiply your DBQ out of 9 by 4.5 and each of your essays out of 9 by 2.75 add all those three up</p>
<p>for 2001, the cutoff for 5 was 114, for 4 was 92, and for 3 was like 70 something</p>
<p>Ha, I thought the test was relatively easy–I think I scored extremely well. I only left one question blank on the multiple choice. My DBQ was four pages, and my other essays were 2.5-3; so rudimentary. I hope that the SAT II tommorrow is going to be a push over. Knock on wood…</p>
<p>The DBQ was boring as HELL… I was prediciting a time period much different then they gave us as well, but overall I did well on it.</p>
<p>First free response I chose the 2nd one, and could not remember all of the info, but I got a solid 2 page essay out of it.</p>
<p>Second free response I also chose the 2nd one, this one was 3 pages and just filled w/ specifics and good examples. I thank my APUS teacher for spending so much time on this period, I nailed it.</p>
<p>Multiple Choice I don’t even want to talk about, so much on there I didn’t have a clue on. I skipped about 15 and probably got about 15 wrong, but I’m hoping my essays will save me and give me a 4 on the test.</p>
<p>spoofy sounds like more of a 3 to me…thats just my intuition though, because i feel the same as him about frq and mc but on dbq i think i got 7-9, and i still feel like i got a 3.</p>
<p>wow IvyLeague, you are soooooooooooooo smart! “thought the test was a joke”, damn! i guess you are just too advanced for the rest of us. i love and respect you for your raw, fierce intelligence, IvyLeague.</p>
<p>repeating my questions for the third time now:</p>
<p>"i didnt put a conclusion on my DBQ, because by the time i finished my last body paragraph the proctor said u shud be moving on to frq question…is it still possible to get max points for a dbq without a conclusion? my dbq was really really good, and it would suck to lose points just becuz i didnt write a 2 sentence conclusion.</p>
<p>AND, i didnt have any conclusion sentences…like how ur supposed to hav a topic sentence at the beginning of every paragraph to relate the paragraph to the thesis, i did that, but i didnt put any conclusion sentences at the end of the body paragraphs…is that all right? :-/"</p>
<p>My impression of the AP US history exam: prolonged sodomy. Eh… it was kinda expected given that, I had long since sacrificed the US history exam up on the altar of AP chem.</p>
<p>Really? I thought the DBQ was mediocre and the 2nd choice on B and C was very easy. I was expecting the worst on part C but was overcome with relief when I saw the topics, which were both doable.</p>
<p>h4zin- I don’t think that the AP us history exam is hard (it isn’t a cerebral leap to be able to blindly memorize mass amounts of information, not much high level critical thinking there), however, I was so disinterested in the class that I didnt do any of the ids or essays. But even though, I dont think I got lower then a 3.</p>
<p>PAIN. I gave up on my last FRQ’s conclusion because it honestly hurt too much to keep writing.</p>
<p>izzy, you’re not the only one. Our entire class started giggling and whispering “yes!” when we saw the DBQ because our teacher is a nut about that subject. I loved the DBQ. The first FRQ was awesome, second one… not so much.</p>
<p>I also wrote about 13 pages. I’ll be disappointed with a 3 and somewhat surprised by a 5. Solid 4, though.</p>
