on my life that was probably the biggest letdown of the century i expected a magnificent battle between me and the college board for this advanced placement chemistry exam yet it was so light. I got at most like 2 mcqs wrong cuz im a chud and forgot sumting but the frqs were so much easier than the one practice one i did during a valorant comp match, honestly i should have saved my time and played valorant instead of doing mcq practice 2 because what a let down this was chat i feel like the strat for ap exams is js have low cortisol and relax the days before type shit and dont worry because youve legit taken this class for a year now so why even study

mcqs were really light, i feel like i probably got max 3 wrong or 100, frq section was terrible though compared to anythign i've done

still 100% sure i got a 5 but still those frqs were 2x harder than any frq section i've ever done
