[jaunty linden]

cuz then commit deadline

[jaunty linden]

No idea

It’s just that ppl can’t withdraw after commit deadline

[jaunty linden]

very very bad

😔

[scenic shore]

Wooooooo pls calc gods a 5

I feel@like I got a 4

But I need a 5

[worn egret]

🙏🙏

[stable ferry]

bc form e was so light work

[scenic shore]

Form O made me wanna kms jump off a cliff made me realize that I don’t know a lot

[stable ferry]

really my bro had o and he said it was ez

[scenic shore]

I didn’t study well

I tried to cram everything in an hr

Frq were ez

Mcq railed me somehow

Idk how

I normally get one wrong mcq but mcq went bad

I guessed at least 20 times

[arctic vault]

welp

[stable ferry]

we were comparing our forms and Lowkey I got lucky

[arctic vault]

i’m no poked

cooked

[stable ferry]

Cause my form compared to his was soooo easy

[arctic vault]

that calc bc frq was horrible

[scenic shore]

Only frq 6 was

I thought everything else was pretty standard

[stable ferry]

form o or e?

[scenic shore]

O

[arctic vault]

opposite for me

[scenic shore]

Taking a ratio test on a function that big was devious move college board

[stable ferry]

did anyone do form e 😭

[arctic vault]

i did banger on the calc ab parts so if anything my sub score is cracked

[scenic shore]

Wait

[arctic vault]

it was limit comparison then ratio test

[scenic shore]

Didn’t u take it

[arctic vault]

i forgor already

[scenic shore]

I messed up a apparently but I swear

I thought I did it right

[arctic vault]

i’m pretty sure it’s converge

many ppl got that

but who knows u might be right

so i’m expecting a 3 for calc bc sadly

[scenic shore]

For both?

[arctic vault]

yeah

[scenic shore]

Are u fcking fr?

Holy shit

[arctic vault]

ong

[scenic shore]

Oh well

Bro frq 6 full cooked me

Mcq also somehow cooked me

[broken grail]

No test discussion!!

[arctic vault]

oopsie

i’m coping right now

[scenic shore]

Me too

Wait hollow if u thought frq 6 was ez then u did good

[arctic vault]

hey if we all did bad then we all did good

[scenic shore]

Oh facts

The curve

Be hitting nicely

Hopefully

[broken grail]

Only reason I’m getting a 3

[scenic shore]

Pls mcq curve ik everyone said it was jack easy

Pls

Idk why it was so bad for me

[broken grail]

Ok let’s stop discussing please!!

[scenic shore]

Alr

[arctic vault]

mentally preparing to take calc at berkeley already

[scenic shore]

Same lol calc bitched me today

They put me in my place

[brave basin]

okay it lowkey wasnt that bad

[arctic vault]

like i’m pretty sure i passed but like that 5 is definitely unachievable

granted i got 0 seconds of studying to my name cause i didn’t bother to

[brave basin]

fuck i really wanna talk about it

there was one specific part that i am not allowed to mention that i definitely fucked up

but everything else i at least answered

but lowkey dont the uc's only need a 3 for credit

[arctic vault]

yeah for general credits

to skip subject classes u need higher scores usually

[uneven haven]

guys did we have to color in bubbles for the form code

[broken grail]

No

[uneven haven]

im paranoid i didn’t bubble in my form code

[haughty grotto]

I finished

[uneven haven]

OH FHANK GOD

[broken grail]

You write the form code in

[uneven haven]

so it was only writing it in

[broken grail]

Yes

[uneven haven]

OH BLESS

[haughty grotto]

Can’t wait to see my fellow Berkeley individuals in Math 1a 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[uneven haven]

OK thank u

[broken grail]

Real me in one b 😭

[haughty grotto]

I failed that AP calculus test miserably

I shoulda brought a hundred dollar bill and slipped it in there

[broken grail]

My predictions for bc: Calc ab sub score will be a 5 and bc sub score will be one! It’ll avg to a 3

[uneven haven]

Wait even if someone forgets to write it, can the AP graders still tell from your ap id barcodes?

[broken grail]

I think so

From the exam label

[arctic vault]

calc 1a here i come!!!

[uneven haven]

oooh okk

[arctic vault]

i hope atleast i skip 1a to 1b

[brave basin]

ayo what?

[broken grail]

You might as well retake

It won’t hurt

[arctic vault]

i’m goated at calc ab tho (i think)

senioritis stunted my learning for bc

do they take ab sub scores to skip class?

[turbid pulsar]

Lucky school😭

[arctic vault]

how would that even work if ranking stops at second

ppl would be rushing to get stuff for yearbooks n shit

and grad speeches

[worn egret]

It’s a district thing 😩 from the second biggest school district in the U.S.

[arctic vault]

lausd moment

[worn egret]

🤪

[turbid pulsar]

Bruh does any of your guys school do ap bump tests😭

[worn egret]

They have interesting policies…

[turbid pulsar]

I have not heard any school do those

[worn egret]

Like why tf are there multiple valedictorian’s lol

They define it as having a 4.0 or higher weighted

So there are like 20+ per year at my school

I’m the true valedictorian tho 😘

[arctic vault]

we got that too lol

[worn egret]

Yea 🗿🗿

[arctic vault]

too many ties in ranking

[worn egret]

I would understand ties actually

But the above 4.0 weighted is silly lol

[arctic vault]

that is

like 200 ppl would be valedictorians at my school

how’d u do for calc ab @worn egret

will i might see u in calc 1a

[worn egret]

It was like a sine graph. Started strong in the mcq no calculator

The my confidence went south for with the calculator

Went back up again for the calculator frq

Went down without the calculator

[arctic vault]

me but for calc bc

[rapid terrace]

yeah luckily the 5 on bc still lets me skip math 1a and 1b

[unique snow]

Calc was ok

AB or BC

[unique snow]

Theres two US forms? I got form O

[stable ferry]

yeah apparently half of my class got form e and the other half got form o which is crazy

[unique snow]

Wtf

[stable ferry]

yeah I was like wut

but Lowkey it was ez for me

[haughty grotto]

heh heh

The calc AB test

Completely fucked it

Will see yall in math 1a

[arctic vault]

atleast ur not alone

wooo math 1a

[haughty grotto]

gonna have fun in math 1a

[leaden ledge]

no test discussion please

[candid shore]

oh is it a rule here

i deleted all my messages I guess it makes sense

[leaden ledge]

yeah

it's a rule everywhere😭

you can discuss frqs once they're officially released

[hasty folio]

Anyone know what SEED Scholars is and if it’s good that u were invited to apply to it in ur applicant portal?

[verbal trellis]

"The STEM Excellence through Equity & Diversity (SEED) Scholars Honors Program focuses on supporting and inspiring historically marginalized undergraduate populations majoring in all areas of science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)."

If you are "historically marginalized" then it's probably a good idea to apply

[worn egret]

Isn’t it past the deadline?

But it’s ideal if you plan to go to grad school cuz that’s what it’s about

[verbal trellis]

Yeah, seems like the deadline has passed... https://seedscholars.berkeley.edu/applying
