Maslow's Hierarchy, Negative Externality - Psych, Econ, or AP Enviro?

<p>Just what the ____ at my online AP Enviro. course. </p>

<p>Does the following actually show up on the AP or is it just some random crap? </p>

<p>AP Psych? <a href=“http://i.min.us/iVmG0.png[/url]”>http://i.min.us/iVmG0.png&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>AP World? <a href=“http://i.min.us/iVKM4.png[/url]”>http://i.min.us/iVKM4.png&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>AP Econ.? <a href=“http://i.min.us/iR2yw.png[/url]”>http://i.min.us/iR2yw.png&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You bet I did this for the lab ;): <a href=“http://i.min.us/idlZIU.png[/url]”>http://i.min.us/idlZIU.png&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>For Econ, most of those are things they could include as distractors, but likely not questions. As far as I can remember, you should know what the Gini coefficient is.</p>

3

<p>You should know all of that for psych and world. For econ, you might wanna know the first two; there may or may not be a multiple choice question on them, although it is unlikely. The last four will not show up.</p>

<p>FLVS needs to hire some better test writers. </p>

<p>^That’s actually a valid world question, not some random crap; you should know about the specialization of labor and the need for a centralized governing system, along with the rest of early history.</p>

6

<p>Yeah, it’s a valid World History question, but I’m taking AP Environmental Science. Am I expected to know that for AP Enviro? </p>

<p>Plus the question is grammatically incorrect.</p>

7

<p>

</p>

<p>Oh, I just assumed it was world since you didn’t specify. You absolutely do not need to know this for enviro.</p>

8

<p>Thanks. I’m scared about Enviro. now seeing that only 8% got a 5 this year?!?! </p>

<p>I definitely need to self-study for Enviro … ;).</p>

9

<p>More than 8%–8.7%, actually, if that makes you feel better :D</p>

10

<p>You need to know externalities for enviro - there is usually one or two questions on them, but they’re extremely simple - and you need to know the basics of hunter-gatherer societies (what they do, why they’re sustainable, etc.)</p>

11

<p>Thanks for the tip! </p>

<p>You clearly have taken AP Enviro. Can you share any tips? :D. </p>

<p>

<p>Yeah, I took it on FLVS last year as well. I’m sorry you’re doing it; it’s a really annoying course to finish. Considering that I do NOT think I got a 5 on the exam, my advice would be to study hard. Study your class notes, not a prep book. AP Enviro goes much deeper into detail than people would think. A lot of it is common sense, but I did almost no studying, and I missed a lot of the detailed questions that would have netted me a 5.</p>

<p>We’ll know my score for sure later this week, but suffice it to say that even if I get a 5, I did not know the material as well as I should have. Study. It’s not as easy of an exam as everybody says it is. I took the makeup exam, and look at what everybody was saying about it here. <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/ap-tests-preparation/1149374-2011-late-ap-environmental-science.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/ap-tests-preparation/1149374-2011-late-ap-environmental-science.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

</p>

<p>I can’t agree more. Like Keasbey, I got screwed hard on the late exam, thinking that it’d be a breeze. It wasn’t. Bye-bye, streak of 5’s. :P</p>

14

<p>wait how do you know what percent of students got a 5 already?</p>

15

<p>garfield - that’s my response. I actually submitted that (although I did put a valid answer after the sass at the beginning). And no, I’m showing that the final exam had 33 essays…like, what? Is that necessary?</p>

16

<p>Did the course make any comment on that?</p>

<p>Did you actually do the 33 essays? Or is that why you got such a low score on the final?</p>

17

<p>My teacher didn’t comment on any of my open-responses all year. And I did all 33 essays. They just hadn’t been graded at that point, as it says on the screenshot. My score up to that point was a 115/126 on the multiple choice (300 total points with 174 ungraded FRQ points).</p>

18

<p>Did your teacher eventually grade them?</p>

19

<p>Yup. Perfect scores, no comments.</p>

20

<p>So for the final exam you have to complete 33 essays? How long do you have to finish the exam? 1 week? 2 weeks? 1 month? </p>

<p>Finally, did you get an A in the course? I really want an A so it’ll help my GPA lol. That’s the only reason why I’m taking the course. </p>

<p>As for the actual AP exam … aren’t late exams harder than the regularly scheduled ones? I looked at the AP Euro “Form B” FRQs and they were a couple notches harder than the regular prompts, and I’m good at Euro. </p>

<p>On the bright side, the 2012 AP Enviro exam should be easier. I heard that 2011 AP Bio was easy, but they warned that the 2012 exam would be harder. </p>

<p>Oh yeah, I found a freely accessible online course for AP Enviro. If your taking Enviro on FLVS, you might want to check this out too. </p>
