I thougt this test to be alot more difficult in overall compared to the past exams I have done.

Section 1 MC |Non-Calculator:

Okay this was alright but I found it to be a wee bit more difficult compared to Section 1 MC Calculator. The problem I had here was time related. The problems all required thinking and I had to guess on like 8 problems. There was just not enough time to do this section.

Section 1 MC |Calculator:

This was alot easier than the first section and I pretty much breezed through this. Guessed on like 3 questions? Hopefully I didn't make any careless mistakes on the others.

Section 2 FRQ, Calculator:

I answered the first question completely, because I remember doing a similar problem just a day before the test. The next question was also pretty easy, but I sort of fudged up on the last part. Overall I think I scored around (hopefully) ~16 points of of the 18 points.

Section 2 FRQ, Non-Calculator:

The fourth question was alright but I don't think I answered half of it. At this point I was getting rather nervous. Ok so I just skip the two parts and move on to question 5, praying that it would be easier. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Everyone I talked to after the test thought this question was ridiculously difficult. I remember answering the last part on question 5 (hopefully it was right) but the first two my mind drew a complete blank. I spend a few minutes looking at question 5 I just skipped it.

Again my hopes for an easy quesiton 6 was crushed again. This question was almost as challenging as question 5. So for the entire time I just wrote random BS for these two questions.

This section was the most brutal out of the entire test. Everyone, I talked to after the test, saw this section as the most difficult. The questions were nothing like past exams. I am not kidding, I got raped on this section.

Enjoy your lack of score.

>highschoolers who think that getting a 5 on the AP test actually helps you get into top tier private schools

>absolutely no bearing on public schools.

>not realizing that with good letters of recommendation you can get into Harvard with a 3.2 GPA and no extracurricular or awards

the questions can't be specific so im fine

also this year they aren't marking off for guessing answers. so the curve might be different

and the free response this year was alot harder than last years and the years before
