<p>Found out in a tweet by the head of AP, Trevor Packer, that something went on during the AP World reading.

<p>Sad how readers/teachers who teach this course can be so hypocritical. </p>

<p>Hopefully no delays right!? :expressionless: </p>

202

<p>Well that’s a shocker.</p>

203

<p>No delays–I got my score early through my university.</p>

204

<p>Uh Oh…</p>

<p>“2014 AP World History score: 5: 6.4%; 4: 15.8%; 3: 31.7%; 2: 27.9%; 1: 18.2%. These may shift slightly as late exams are scored.”</p>

<p>“A significant % of AP World History students earned 0 pts on various essays: Q1 (DBQ) 19% got 0/9 pts; Q2: 32% got 0/9; Q3: 35% got 0/9”</p>

205

<p>Praying to be part of either that 15.8% or that 6.4% :-SS :-SS </p>

206

<p>right there with ya^^^^ @PoisonIvy20</p>

207

<p>Got a 5 :slight_smile: Thank you GetAFive.com!</p>

208

<p>lol that test was extremely easy. Never studied, never did homework…got C’s this last term of sophomore year. </p>

<p>Procrastinated and only read half of my review book. </p>

<p>Yet I got a 5. Thanks, getafive.com! Literally all the info I needed came from watching a couple hours worth of videos from that site, 2 days before the test. </p>

209

<p>^ That website was amaaaazing I get my score on Monday D:</p>

210

<p>I got a 5 (I used a proxy to check my scores). I was freaking out after I saw AP_Trevor’s tweets lol</p>

211

<p>I also got a 5</p>

212

<p>I am a 5er as well. </p>

<p>Pro tip to anyone taking the test next year: don’t read Barron’s; pick up Ethel Wood and use getafive. Those two are money for this exam.</p>

213

<p>I got a two… ■■■. If we take the exam next year can we chose to only send our college the higher of the two?</p>

214

<p>I got a 5!!! SO HAPPY</p>

215

<p>Ugh got a 4, should have studied some more. Congrats to all those that got 5s!</p>

216

<p>I got a 5 and I am so incredibly ecstatic!!!</p>

217

<p>5!</p>

218

<p>Got a 4!!! I know a 5 wasnt in the cards and history is NOT my subject, so this is a pleasant surprise.
For future test takers, I think I got at least 60+ MC and did the DBQ and Compare essays, but only wrote the intro of the CCOT as I ran out of time. Was honestly expecting a 2 because of that!</p>

219

<p>I got a 3, but I sort of expected it due to my screw-ups on the CCOT and DBQ as well as my poor performance on the MC. I wish they told us how we scored on the essays so I would know where I went wrong. Oh well. (I still made a 5 on my Statistics exam :P)</p>

220

<p>I think the curve was really really good this year. I know for a fact that I majorly screwed up (at least I think I did) both of the FRQs but still scored a five :p</p>
