2020 MCQ Blog Notes
Score: 62/67
I am pretty happy with this score for not using any external sources (online info, friends, etc.), but I really need to work on my timing. It took me 1 hour 58 minutes to complete this test, which isn’t ideal considering the real AP test is 2 hours, and I will obviously be a lot more stressed. However, this is a good starting point and honestly a big improvement from my MCQ taken at the beginning of the trimester.
