I'm going to be taking five AP exams over the course of this week and the next. (Computer Science A, Calculus AB, Chemistry, Physics B, World History.) AP time is actually sort of nice, since it means I barely have any homework in any of my classes!

Is anyone else taking the CS A exam tomorrow? I'm a bit worried since I'm not in the class, but I think I'll do fine. I only started studying today, though... I suppose I can get a 5 if I try hard. Should be easy though, I'm not really worrying all that much about it.

Physics B is going to just destroy me, though.

5 on AP Calc AB should be fairly easy. It's just math, after all

The only part I'm particularly worried about in AP Comp Sci A is Gridworld. I feel like I just have to be extra careful on the multiple choice and not panic on the free response.. I think I'll get a 5 in AP Chem, since I've been doing well in the course all year. Doesn't hurt to study, of course.

I'm taking 7 ap's this year, but I'm not taking Comp Sci A so I can't give you input on that. Chem is fairly intuitive - if you understand the concepts, they are just big fancy math problems that do not require calculus. Memorizing solubility rules and crap is a pain, but there's a fair amount of memorizing for any AP. If you've had a strong math class, you're prolly set for AP Calc AB or even BC.

As for me, I'm taking AP Japanese and Psych, two AP's that I'm essentially boned in. I could try to use the weekend to cram for psych (with 0 prior knowledge - no class). I heard it's feasible. As for Jap... gg. Good luck on your AP's bro.

I just realized I'll have to be able to write ampersands for CS, so I have to practice doing that, embarrassingly enough.

I'll be taking seven AP tests next year (Calc BC, US History, Macroeconomics, Microeconomics, Biology, Lang, French), but they shouldn't be particularly difficult with the sole exception of French, which is easily my worst subject by far. This year my APs shouldn't be giving me too much trouble except for Physics. I just can't seem to do physics at all!

OP, if you're taking AP Calc BC next year, then why are you bothering taking AB this year, especially considering that the BC test gives you an AB score as well?

Because at my school AB is a prerequisite for Advanced Calculus, which is BC + other stuff. After that I get to take Differential Equations!

If I do well on the AB test, I might not bother taking the BC test, since the college I want to go to doesn't offer additional credit for a BC score (and it's a guaranteed acceptance since both my parents are alumni, my mother is employed by a UW professor, my grades are stellar, and it's instate).

Well, GridWorld API is provided. You just have to know what this and that does in order to solve the programs.

Same goes to the open-ended questions.

Just study the API and you should be fine. I guess.

Pretty strange that your school does that, since all you literary do in BC is studying the AB course + one more unit and some little tricks of the trade.

I'll be taking Physics C, Stats, Calc BC, Environmental, Bio, Euro, and Lit. Cheers!

We all should rape this ez since we play sc, and therefore are smart.

Wow , you guys are taking alooooot of AP classes. I'm glad I only have one this year (Euro). I might end up taking a few AP exams next year along with IB exams, but probably not, since all these people are stressed so much from it -.-

Oh, and what does it take to get a 5 on a history exam? Would it be 90%+ on the MC Test and 8 or 9 on the FRQs/DBQs? or would 7/8 be enough

Pretty sure I never did that well and I got 5s on my history APs. Certainly I was not close to 90% on the multiple choice. My essays were probably 7+ though.

I believe it also depends on how difficult the test is in general.

I think I calculated that I could get a 5 on the AP World History exam with essay scores of 5, 4, and 4 and a multiple choice score of 80%. The curve is enormous, evidently.
