<p>It involved a change in colors</p>
<p>Eh, it is what it is. One exam down, five to go for me, so I’ll worry about it after my last one, which is next Thursday. I’ve developed a remarkable amount of exam Zen.</p>
<p>There was a fire drill during the MC section at my school… =</p>
<p>@ khaos, is your school retaking it? that’s bad. </p>
<p>and exam zen? does that mean calmness? because it’s strange… but i never feel “stressed” for things before it happens… however, after an exam, extreme “curiosity” kicks in :p</p>
<p>ok, just one question…
any of you get a diagonal edcba in the first row near bottom in mc?
things like that both me :P</p>
<p>YES I got the diagonal as well. And it was a complete diagonal (or maybe almost complete), not a distorted one.</p>
<p>@ccesssu OK, so I have at least 5 MC questions correct.</p>
<p>@ccesssu: Yes I did!
And I also got 3 E’s in a row later on.
Lots of double letters,
ex) AA CC DD
(don’t remember exact answers or where they were, but there were lots of weird patterns like that!)</p>
<p>I did…twice…
like one was a direct complete diagonal, and then right after that was a distorted diagonal</p>
<p>HAHAHA i love how you guys remember these things. it’s funny</p>
<p>oh no I don’t remember if I got the diagonal!
Darn, that would have been helpful.</p>
<p>haha yes!! edcba!..so i feel like i got a 75% on the mc…but the frq…those were deadly…probably a 30%…i literally had half of part A done and it was time for part B, i took the last 5 mins. of part B to go back to Part A and fill out half the test…</p>
<p>Fu** 0 order reactions…just a general statement…</p>
<p>Say I took Chemistry Honors and got a 790 on the June Chem SAT last year. If I’m taking AP Chemistry at right now, what do you think my chances of getting a 5 are?</p>
<p>crap I think I got that diagonal and then changed some answers because it bothered me…</p>
<p>You’re defn. right about that…hours of our life…countless days spent studying and wasting weeks in class for stuff that doesn’t even show up on the AP Exam…how annoying is that…</p>
<p>@yumi, no, we all just looked up and stared at the proctors with “Are you f***ing serious” written on our faces =P Then they told us to keep working and made a few calls to make the alarms stop. And no, we didn’t get any extra time. We just had to work through the whole mess.</p>
<p>Personally, I had some extra time for the MC anyway - it was the FRQ that was just killer, since it was both difficult and time-consuming.</p>
<p>Well, after self-studying for AP Chemistry, I have mixed feelings about the test. The multiple choice was pretty easy, but the free response, particularly Part A, was disastrous. I thought I knew equilibrium too… D:</p>
<h1>1: Good during (a) and (b), but I hit a brick wall at (c) and (d) - I spent too much time trying to figure them out when I should have cut my losses and moved on</h1>
<h1>2: Relatively straightforward, but I was pretty rushed and because I had self-studied, I had not done a lab like that befoe</h1>
<h1>3: Most were simple problems, but I literally had eight minutes left so I had to cram all my writing in - don’t know if I made any mistakes</h1>
<h1>4: I was relieved after seeing those equations, since I know they could have been worse; not sure about equation (b), however</h1>
<h1>5: Easiest of the free response</h1>
<h1>6: It took me a while to interpret the graph, but I think I got it</h1>
<p>Overall the FR was much more difficult than previous years’ questions. All I can hope for is for my multiple choice to bring my score up and for the curve to be generous. xD</p>
<p>So how hard was the test? I was extremely sick so I couldn’t take it. ):</p>
<p>I’m valedictorian at my school, have gotten all As in chem all year, and plan to major in chem in college…that being said, the frq were still hard as s***. No previous years were ever like this ■■■</p>
