How many AP Courses did you apply/get into?

You're like the perfect student that might make it to Harvard, one that Asian parents dream of for their kids. Well my self-esteem just got Bikini Atoll'd Frown

They really aren't too hard - they each contain low, medium, and high difficulty questions, with less of the higher difficulty ones (these are the ones, however, that seperate 3's from 4's, 4's from 5's. You can pass pretty easily without getting them right. A friend even took a course he knew nothing about and got a 4). Your scores are weighted based on a curve. So, the more people that test that don't know much of the material, the better off you are. However, this means that a certain percentage is guaranteed to fail as well...

(This means that forced testing/paid testing heavily benefits those that actually know the material AND want to take the test)

If I had actually studied, I probably would've seen a lot more 4's and 5's

My advice - study. I didn't, but I tend to be a brilliant test taker, so I got away with it. If you struggle with tests, study ftw.
