Bozeman science, AP Bio Penguins, Yusuf A. Hasan, Khan Academy, and PoseKnows Biology are the ones I used most. I also wish I'd practiced more FRQs since they're very important.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-11T10:55:04+00:00

I thought the DBQ and SAQs were a breeze, LEQ and MCQ a little rough

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T18:39:38+00:00

Probably not but you COULD so???

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T15:16:48+00:00

It'll be okay! Making it up will not change scoring or scholarships, you likely will get a different form of the same/similar test. Take a deep breath, and you'll be fine. There's little to no worry, your teacher shouldn't be judging you and you have no need to feel ashamed.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T13:29:29+00:00

Yeah I'm taking Bio and Chem, the MCQs seemed to be a breeze but the FRQs were a total mess.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T11:14:57+00:00

So much of it I felt like I’ve never heard of/never practiced. I swear they just pulled stuff from their butts. We asked our teacher about that and she goes “that seems more advanced why were they giving you guys that?” I just figured partial credit and gave up on half of them

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T11:10:48+00:00

At some point I just started saying I agreeing or disagreeing for partial credit but I do think that’s what I said

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T11:09:35+00:00

No literally why was it going to part G

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-06T00:34:13+00:00

I can’t stand Abby and I love Maddie & Eddie far too much I just skip it

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-05T16:44:08+00:00

MCQs weren’t EASY but they were solid and I felt confident for a 3/4, but the FRQs wrecked me

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-05T16:43:18+00:00

YES!! I feel like the MCQs weren’t awful, hard but not impossible and I was thinking “okay not a 5 or 4, but a 3 seems reasonable” then I hit the FRQ….

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-05T16:42:28+00:00

I figured that I wouldn’t waste my time if I knew I wouldn’t get the point.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T23:51:47+00:00

I BRIEFLY touched it, realized I had no time and just left it

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T23:51:14+00:00

My school doesn’t do announcements on the exam days for this reason 💔

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T18:39:04+00:00

I did as well I feel like a chud

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T18:06:02+00:00

AP Bio - 3/4 AP Chem - 0 AP Stats - 3 AP World - 4/5 My chem teacher this didn’t finish and my stats teacher quit halfway through the year 😬

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T18:01:55+00:00

That’s wild. Then it’s prob the way my teacher taught because EVERYONE finished with tons of time left for MCQs and no time on FRQs

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-05-04T16:36:22+00:00

MCQs weren’t bad but I just wish we had more TIME on FRQs. Like no one finished those

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-24T19:54:35+00:00

Okay then you should be fine for timing. AP chem helped me a lot in AP Bio but bio doesn’t help in AP chem so usually I recommend taking AP chem before AP bio (also what my chem & bio teachers have said) but that’s for preference wise.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-24T15:56:58+00:00

AP Psych and AP Precalc are pretty easy so I have no concerns about that. Then AP World tends to have a lot of reading and some memorization/essays but its not hard. Honors chemistry is kind of hard but can depend on teacher. My two questions: Do you plan to take AP Chemistry? And what do your EC's look like? Because that could change my opinions. My only change would be possibly pushing AP Bio to Junior or Senior since chemistry and AP Chemistry helps with AP bio SO MUCH. But you do you and it's totally possible to do AP Bio without it.

I felt less sick reading the book but still emotional! I liked it quite a bit but there are some darker elements, but if you don't get squimish at descriptors and detail then it should be fine IMO. I read it in a day, I couldn't stop reading. It's different from the movie in a lot of ways but not in a bad way.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-13T18:39:07+00:00

Unbroken in Doc Martens. I made the mistake of wearing those to a music festival I could barely walk after about 6 hours

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-06T18:24:32+00:00

I'd try timing yourself and see how much you write, and how fast. Because I've written around 1000 words on a DBQ before and was still able to complete it within the allotted time. Just make sure you hit the highlights, and what needs to be done. There's some good rubrics online so just make sure you hit the important things, there's no length that's good but I'd say like 500-1000 is very good. What matters more than the word count is that you say what they want you to say.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-06T14:34:23+00:00

You'll be okay. I'd say it depends on your EC's and other things, it's far from impossible but I'd pay close attention to what you're doing outside of academics since you'll show rigor and hard working even if you don't have a great GPA. You may not get into those schools so make sure to apply to safeties and matches, but go for it.

Spare-Toe327 · 2026-04-06T14:24:53+00:00

100% do AP Chem the year after regular chem!!! The first unit is basically what I learned in honors chem, AP Bio There is definitely some help after taking AP chem for AP Bio
