**OFFICIAL** AP Chemistry 2014 Thread

<p>Does anyone know if this exam was harder than last years?</p>

<p>wait does that mean that if you got >50/60 on MC and like half points on the frq then you’re set for a 5? seems a bit too lenient, but the chem curve has always been pretty lenient so idk</p>

<p>@Wskimo‌ that’s way too low. I wish though… Well then again you never know. I’m just thinking worst case scenario.</p>

<p>My teacher said that the cutoff was going to be around 70%, but I’m not sure how it was like for bio…does anyone know?</p>

<p>@dopecake Basically</p>

<p>MC was relatively okay, probably got around mid 70%. Frq brought me down to maybe around a 4 or if im lucky low 5</p>

<p>Has anyone ever heard of somebody getting >90% on the multiple choice and not getting a 5?</p>

<p>who is “kitty” on the google doc?</p>

<p>@acttest my teacher said that for the old format if you got > 60/75 then you’d have to get brain damage during the frq to not get a 5 but i’m pretty sure they’re gonna screw it up so that less people get 5s than ever before like they did to bio</p>

<p>@dopecake @acttest I’m expect 5%-8% of people who took it to get a 5.</p>

<p>In reference to the T-shaped trigonal planar debate

<p>curve last year for bio: <a href=“AP Biology Exam Data 2013 – Mr. Chinn's Site”>http://galileoweb.org/chinnc/ap-biology-08-09/ap-biology-exam-data-2013/&lt;/a&gt;
78% right to get a five… </p>

<p>so im not going to discuss anything specific. But I would like to say i got pulverized on the short answer.</p>

<p>awh poop. I’m lucky to get a 3 now…</p>

<p>OFFICIAL FRQS PLEASE COME OUT SOON</p>

<p>This was my first AP exam, and before I started I was pretty excited, but now I hate the college board
I mean, the MC was easy, but for the FRQs I simply needed more time. I did the long ones, but I spent so much time on them that I had like 10 minutes to do the short ones. I wasn’t even able to do #6, and I might not have gotten full credit for the other ones.
Where do you think the cutoff will be? If it’s like 65% for a 5…I might have some hope</p>

<p>So on the free response section the instructions were supposedly to put your ap student number on the top of each page…I was so consumed in doing the problems that I totally forgot to do that…does this mean I’ll get a zero or something on the test?? Even though I put my name and number on the front cover??</p>

<p>LOL WHAT ARE YOU SERIOUS WHO ACTUALLY DID THAT^</p>

<p>wait what??? we were supposed to do that??? my proctor never said that!!! :open_mouth: oh crap</p>

<p>@jaclynalamba @meaa7130 @dopecake I believe you only had to write your student number if you needed extra paper (you’d write it on the paper)… </p>

<p>EG: If you write a lot and need more space, you can get more paper, so long as you include your AP # on each sheet (they don’t want your name for fairness purposes)</p>

<p>I highly doubt they’d have you fill out the details on the book if you then needed to write your ID on each page… It’d waste too much time.</p>
