yonman14 Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 So back in May many American high schoolers took the Advanced Placement exams (created during the Cold War, if you weren't aware.) If you do well enough on these exams, you can get college credits, depending on what college you attend. So, who here took APs? What did you think of them? Do you know how you did? Satisfied with how you did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 created during the Cold War, if you weren't aware So created between 1945 and 1990? Err ok.. Well last year I got 5's on Chemistry, Microeconomics, and Macroeconomics. Very satisfied with filling most of my college required social science requirement.

mad4u689 Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Last two years I got 5s in Calc AB, European History, English, Biology, Environmental Science, and US History. But because my college is silly, it barely helped me in terms of credit at all. They give you up to 2 credits for credit earned before matriculating to the college... However, those two credits might enable me to take a semester off to study abroad, instead of doing it through the college, and thus save a lot of money :D Everybody hug and spread the love :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vladmoney Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 APs are pretty cool cause they are important, but it really doesn't matter if you do bad on them. I got 5 on my AP Calc last year, this year i took Physics, Stats, and English i don't think i did so hot this year (didnt study :shame: ) but i know i didn't do terrible either.

unknownmasterofnothing Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 hated ap bio test. Essays were easy. Just that they don't break down the multiple choice section. Ap calculus AB was ok but some free response questions were hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yonman14 Posted July 4, 2006 Author Share Posted July 4, 2006 I'm waiting for my bio results right now - anyone know around when they come? As long as you've got your AP number, you can call in to find out your scores... ($8 for the entire call). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikeob1 Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 I called up the AP today to get my results since I was unable to register for some of my classes since they don't have my AP credit yet, my college that is. I ended up get a 5 on Calc AB, Statistics, Physics C: Mechanics and a 4 on Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism. So I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, even though I don't think I'm going to use the statistics or physics credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
