I am taking the English AP test, U.S. History AP and the Computer Science AP test.
Anyone taken the Computer Science AP test before, and if so would you mind sharing what some of the stuff that was on it? Please?

AP English Lit on Monday
AP Computer Science A on Weds
AP Calc AB on Thursday
AP Macroeconomics on Thursday the 15th in the morning, Microeconomics in the afternoon

400 bucks, and the only credits I can get are English and Calc, and that's only if I get 5's on both.

All the stuff my teacher just skimmed over at the end of the year. Binary trees and things of that nature. I should remember since I was so angry we hadn't learned them at the time, but I really don't remember much.

I just distinctly remember traversal of binary trees :)

I would have done so much better if they had taught the course like I just learned it this semester in college...

such a general statement... and it is totally wrong. all the universities that i know of/considered accept ap credits for credits, exemption, and placement. i will have 10 college credits from ap tests this fall at JHU (assuming i pass my tests with a 4+).

taking:
AP Calc AB
AP Civics
AP Chem

I sh!t you not, but I had AP art (not art history) in High School. I spent months putting together this huge portfolio and hundreds of dollars getting slides and things framed. I scored real high on it, and had offers from a lot of art schools but didn't go that route. I even won artist of the year or whatever its called, where there is one kid in each dept that gets to go up on stage at graduation and gets a big medal. The damdest thing is that I swear I can't draw, sketch, paint, etc. I have no idea what my art teachers were thinking.

The portfolio was hilarious! It had a 3-5 page paper that had to be completed plus a mini questionaire, then everything needed to be sealed in their respective tamper proof pakaging and then it was all overnighted to Duke university I believe for judging. I'm still not quite sure what the hell happened.

I've taken 15. Actually they were quite fun, passed all but 1 (spanish) and got mostly 4's and 5's. Too bad I can't say the same about college exams :(

Art History was so freaking easy I don't even know where to begin. Maybe finishing up the 100-odd multiple choice questions in about 15 minutes was a good start. I remember just reading down a page of 5-6 questions and the answers would flash out in my mind. Easiest 5 I've ever gotten.
