AP test scores!

KirbyKing · 08-01-2004, 11:22 PM

Hehe, I was at summer college so I pretty much forgot about these. AP test takers, post some of your scores and comments!

AP Bio: 5
-- Hehe, knew I was gonna get this right after takin' that test. Quite a fun course.

AP Calc AB: 5
-- This I was quite surprised about. I did so poorly on a bunch of the test I thought I would get a 3 (which I assumed was the equivalent of a C). Apparently getting a C on the Calc AB test is still getting a 5. I don't mind, a 5 is a 5!

AP Chem: 5
--I knew I did well, but I wasn't expecting a 5. I'm not too surprised though, because the test was a bit easy.

AP Spanish: 4
--Basically what I expected. Nailed every part except the narrative-listening section, which I totally bombed. Oh well. Good enough for me.

AP Government: 4
--Totally surprised by this. I was expecting a 3 at best. This was the last of 4 AP exams, and had totally checked out by then.

AP English: 3
--This also surprised me, since I had always heard AP English was very easy. I thought I did well...but I guess not. Oh well, a pass is a pass.

I also, in previous years, got 5 on AP Euro, 4 on AP US, and 4 on AP Physics B.

I haven't gotten my AP score back yet. Which isn't good.

The only AP I took last year was US History. I probably got a 3. I doubt it was any lower, but I'm not expecting a 5.

imported_ · 08-04-2004, 07:16 PM

Last year I didn't get them until August 15th (my birthday ironically). I got two 4's, so it worked out okay.

AJ Middleton · 08-04-2004, 08:24 PM

KK, you can't grade the APs on a letter basis.

Government: 5
~ Called it.

Psychology: 5
~ Although I BSed the 2nd essay (it asked to define like 10 terms and I didn't know about 5,) I pulled it off. Take THAT Collegeboard.

Calc AB: 3
~ When you're expecting to get a 2, a 3 is very exciting. Shuttup KK.

US History: 5
~ This was last year.

Nerds. All of you.

I mean, why should I take uber-hard tests when I can merely take college-level high school classes and earn credit? Silly childs! [img]smile.gif[/img]

imported_Andrew · 08-04-2004, 09:53 PM

^ Agreed. The only AP Class I'm even thinking about taking is AP History and AP Government, because the regular CP classes are too easy.

I don't have such a system at my school...

***CaptHayfever*** · 08-05-2004, 12:25 PM

^^^Bingo.

^Haha.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Damon King · 08-05-2004, 03:20 PM

I "removed" (better than dropped out) of AP Calculus,
MY average at the 3rd quarter was a 47

Swordmaster Link · 08-06-2004, 08:47 PM

I got a 3 on my AP European History exam. Colleges will look at (and by look at I mean accept) that right?

Bah, a 3 is pretty good considering I BSed the course until 2 weeks before the exam when I decided to get a review book.

Can't say. It depends on the college.

imported_ · 08-07-2004, 12:13 AM

If you're not going to MIT, Harvard, or ****ing Oxford, a three should score you some credit.

I'm ticked. I took my US History AP a few days after I moved. While I was filling out the address information, I forgot my new house number and zip code. I started to panic, and finally I told a teacher who was in the room what was going on, and he said they'd do something about it.

Yeah. I never got my score. I should have put my old address, and maybe they would have forwarded it to me. Stupid, stupid, stupid...

Next year, I'll be taking the English Language & Composition AP.

Yeah, I'll be taking the English AP, too. Hear the quiver of joy in my voice?

imported_ · 08-07-2004, 05:50 PM

I did not enjoy Lang & Comp at all. I would have liked having the option of AP Lit.

What is your issue? That's not true at all. You simply CANNOT make general statements about colleges.

imported_ · 08-07-2004, 08:06 PM

You CANNOT. It's the LAW. THE LAW!
