Blog Post #5


            The AP Lang exam was not at all what I expected. I honestly didn’t think I’d be able to fully sit through a 3 hour exam, having to write 3 essays and do 55 multiple choice questions, but I did it, somehow. I think I at least got a 3, so at least I passed. I definitely did not do amazing on the multiple choice though. The first and second passage were very hard though, and I wasn’t able to finish all the questions, I had to randomly bubble in C for the last 5 questions. The essays were very nice though and I think I could smoothly form my responses to the prompts. I messed on one part for the argument essay though; I wrote about Trump and I think that was a common response for a lot of students, so one of my reasons wasn’t very original. I think for the rest of the other essays, I did a pretty good job.
            The environment during the test was a little annoying though. People kept entering and leaving the room, and slamming the door every 10 seconds. It took a while for everyone to find their seats, because there were so many seats and it was in alphabetical order in the gym. I honestly just wanted to get it over with so I just tried to do my best so I could go home and sleep. The test cramped up my hand so badly, I couldn’t hold a pen for the next 2 hours.
