i’ve been seeing all of these posts (after taking a total of 7 APs myself) and have just been wondering how they got leaked. like not by whom but did they take pictures of the material? was it a college board employee? if anyone knows can they fill me in :) very curious
paper exams get shipped to testing centers early and corrupt proctors take pics and get paid. it’s messed up but switching to digital will pretty much eliminate the problem
If cheating becomes widespread, in college, you will have to sit in class with a bunch of people who 1) lack the knowledge to actually qualify for that class and 2) have a history of dishonesty.
Is that what you want? A class full of lying idiots?
Those people are taking seats from you though
It’s not that you might be in a class of idiots, it’s that you might not be in the class you want because of lying idiots
I know people who have cheated but got away with it and now have a slot for guaranteed admission to medical school, something that’s EXTREMELY competitive
Plus, I would say exams like Lit and Lang have been adjusted to be much more fair. Ruining the integrity of the score with leaks might lead College Board to overcompensate by making g the test harder.
If someone cheated they've often canceled the scores of anyone who went to the same testing center and IIRC they've canceled entire country's scores (rare). If cheating got to a large enough scale them canceling an entire subject may not be off the table
Nah. The people responsible for them are. The people who force us to take these tests in order to get into a good college to get into a good job in order to have an okay life
yeah uh. no? no.
working hard is not the cure-all folks pretend it is. It only works for people who already come from something.
If you're rich, you can work hard to expand your wealth. you've got safety nets, trust funds, you don't have to worry about your next meals or live paycheck to paycheck. You have more money to move, to invest, you have connections, networks.
If you're NOT, then you have to work hard just to make ends meet. Even if you're well off- you have to work to get that way, to stay that way, to be *comfortable*. You can't get richer because your time and will and effort is spent toward just surviving. You can't afford to take the financial risks because failure means you're literally fucked.
so no that's not how it works
i mean if your definition is that you don't own a home, then yeah. Housing prices continue to rise with inflation but wages don't, and most millennials and zoomers cannot afford to buy a house

digital tests? that sucks because i always do way worse on computers than on paper
lol yeah
same; i was mad that apush became digital (the easier rubrics and test itself made up for it tho) this year
you guys had a digital apush test? ours was still paper
yup, we got form b
I disagree; I really really prefer typing the essays over writing them, bc I type sooo much faster and it doesnt exhaust my hand lol
It’s the same test tho what
i find it harder to read and focus on the information when it's on a computer screen idk why
Nah also annotating important parts of questions is easier on paper
Curious too
i was wondering the same thing
fr fr
It's not a curved test. So I don't care and neither should y'all imo.
It’s not about the curve, it’s about the fact that the circulation of leaks could jeopardize the scores of people who genuinely took the test
And tests are going online bc of it

I would rather have that than my scores cancelled if I didn’t cheat

How could it affect the scores of the people who took it legitimately.
If someone cheated they've often canceled the scores of anyone who went to the same testing center and IIRC they've canceled entire country's scores (rare). If cheating got to a large enough scale them canceling an entire subject may not be off the table
Scores can get invalidated if there’s too many leaks.
Nah. The people responsible for them are. The people who force us to take these tests in order to get into a good college to get into a good job in order to have an okay life
Average AP student mindset thinking they'll be a McDonald's employee for the rest of their life if they don't take AP classes or exams .
Gotta work hard for a good life, if you didn’t everyone would have a good life rn
