<p>The first few MC questions were difficult (one was easy, but the other 2 were hard) and were not good ways to start the exam, but the rest of the MC was better. I’d say it was between easy and medium; there were a few I wasn’t sure about. The FRQs were easy except for one or two parts in each one. I’m SOOO happy I did the predicting reactions in the PR book because they helped me tremendously with all three questions. My teacher didn’t teach us about the second and third reactions or the questions they asked, so I was probably the only one who got them (yes!). The FRQs this year were harder than past years in my opinion.</p>

<p>All in all, I can’t wait to get my score. I wasn’t so confident about my MC but I’m hoping I got a 5.</p>

<p>What did you guys think?</p>

<p>Now off to study Spanish…</p>

922

<p>The MC the first couple I thought weren’t that great but after that for the most part they were easy except for maybe 1 or 2. The Free response the first part was pretty easy except for maybe 1 part in one of the frqs. And the part B was pretty difficult i thought. Especially the last question.</p>

923

<p>Yea I agree. I was breezing through the first MCs but they started to get more difficult as I progressed. I don’t know if it’s just me but I didn’t do well, at all, in the FRQ. I am sad because I studied so much for literally everything.</p>

924

<p>I have the same opinion. First couple of MC made me freak out a little bit, but then the questions got much much easier. Free Response…oh god…I would do much better if I had enough time. Some parts were extremelly easy and some just too confusing. I had to skip a couple on parts on 2 of the questions. </p>

<p>I’m hoping for 3 or 4.</p>

925

<p>I tried to study for those predicting reaction FRQ problems but i still can’t seem to get it. I wish my teacher had taught us that stuff.</p>

<p>Everything else was alright…we’ll see in 48 hours when i find out how bad/good i did</p>

926

<p>I just got owned by the MC and FRQ.</p>

<p>Predicted score:</p>

<p>10/75 MC
15/75 FRQ</p>

<p>25/150 = 16% = 1</p>

927

<p>Free-Response…out of the 6 questions.</p>

<p>1 - Letters C and D were hard
2- Easy minus the last letter (i think it was g)
3 - I don’t remember…but I think it was pretty easy minus the last letter as well.
4 - I suck at writing equations
5 - Easy
6 - Easy…minus the last part…I can’t believe i read those kinetics graphs wrong. -_- oh well.</p>

<p>MC was easy as usual</p>

928

<p>I almost cryed during the free-response. -_- lol…because the last question on part 3 required a calculator and I ran out of time</p>

929

<p>I ran out of time at the end of Part A, went back during Part B but didn’t have a calculator!!! = EPIC FAIL</p>

<p>I think I got like 2/3 problems 100% on Part A. like .5/3 problems on Part B. </p>

<p>I hope the exam is super curved.</p>

930

<p>I thought the MC was pretty easy and Part A of the FR was also pretty easy, but I for sure failed the last part of Q6 with kinetics…I’m gonna say that I’ll probably get a 4, maybe a 5 if I’m lucky.</p>

931

<p>FR was SO freaking hard. After the proctor called time, I was seriously about to cry.
Do they curve it more if it’s harder (or more people do badly on it)? Or is a 5 just always set at 100/150?</p>

932

<p>I’m pretty sure the curve depends on how well everyone does on the test. More people do well, harsh curve. A lot of people do bad, generous curve.</p>

933

<p>This was my first AP test… I feel like a made a mistake taking Chemistry first instead of something easier.</p>

<p>The Multiple Choice questions where pretty easy. I was able to get all of them done and I understood most of the questions.</p>

<p>I did not do so greatly on the FRQs. I had to skip C and D of Q1 and some of the other questions too. For the net ionic equations I think I earned some credit for all of them even if it wasn’t a lot. </p>

<p>I’m hoping for a 4.</p>

934

<p>That was terrible }:</p>

935

<p>Holy crap…ran out of time on the MC and FR Pt1. TT_TT I would love a giant curve.</p>

936

<p>MC was alright, but I bombed almost every frq. Was it just me or were you guys expecting radically different frq’s?</p>

937

<p>CommaQueen, all of my friends who are applying to the top 50 schools in the US said the AP Chem exam was hard. I was expecting…</p>

<p>Solutions/Equilibrium
Acid & Bases
Electrochemistry</p>

<p>I WAS TOTALLY WRONG.</p>

938

<p>I thought the MC was pretty easy, I knew most of them. I think I probably got 60/75. Free response was harder.

  1. I got a and b. and part one of c, but didn’t get d
  2. I think i did pretty well. unless I made a stupid mistake
  3. I got A-c. did not get d, but got f.
  4. epic failure. well i got a and c. :stuck_out_tongue:
  5. I think i did okay, I just didn’t part d.<br>
  6. I did all of this one. I might have gotten it wrong though…</p>

<p>I think I got a 4. I am hoping I got a 5, but who knows…</p>

939

<p>MC was pretty easy
FR was quite intense…time is a big issue…</p>

<p>Overall I think I did pretty well…hope for a 5</p>

940

<p>I was hoping for a galvanic cell question on the FRQ. I got raped by question 1 because I spent ten minutes staring at part (a) :(</p>

<p>As for balancing equations, let’s not even go there.</p>
