End-of-Course Survey

Today, I'm hoping you'll take the time to provide me with some feedback about study tools and strategies you used throughout the course. I use this information to develop and refine the supports I provide for students, so your honest responses are appreciated!

Preparing for Online Score Access

You took the AP Psych Exam on Monday. Hooray! You spent a LOT of time preparing for that test this year, so you're going to want to find out how you did as soon as possible! Unfortunately for you, AP Scores aren't available until July 6th (for Wisconsin students), so you'll have to practice some patience.

Also, scores are ONLY available online (you won't get a printed score report mailed to you), so you'll need to have a College Board Account in order to access them. Here are the steps you'll need to take to access your scores:

Students need to:
  • Fill in AP answer sheets carefully and consistently during AP testing. Especially important are name, date of birth, sex, mailing address, and email address.
  • Sign up for a College Board account at apscore.org. Students must have an account to access their scores. Some students may already have an account. Confirm this by signing in.
  • Remember your College Board username and password and your 2018 AP number (or student ID number if they provided it on their AP answer sheet).
  • Look for an email at the email address you put on your AP answer sheet reminding you how and when to access your scores.

Exam Day Info for CFHS Students

This Monday, you'll be taking the AP Psych Exam. I know you're ready to rock that test, so here's what Chippewa Falls AP Psych students need to know:
  • The exam begins at 12:00 at the Korger Chestnut School Building. (See Map below) Arrive a few minutes early, if possible, to locate your testing room, as there will be more than one testing room for this exam. 
  • You will be automatically excused from 2nd hour onward (10:40 AM) for testing. If you wish to use the earlier morning hours to prepare at home, your parents will need to call you in to excuse you.
  • EAT BEFORE YOU TEST. You can't bring food into the exam rooms, so this means you'll need to get something to eat before you arrive (and since school lunch isn't served until noon, that's not an option). You may pack a snack in your backpack to eat during the break, though. 
  • NOTE: If you are also taking the AP Chem exam in the morning you will DEFINITELY want to pack a lunch to eat quickly between exams. You will NOT have time to leave the test site to get food.
  • You need to provide your own transportation to the test site. Arrange carpools ahead of time, if necessary. Don't wait until the last minute!
  • Be sure to practice a solid pre-test regimen: get plenty of sleep the night before, eat healthful meals, and of course, review your course materials!
  • In case you lost them, these directions were provided by Ms. Ebner during pre-registration.
BRING:
  1. A couple of #2 pencils (for the MC part). Maybe your lucky pencil?
  2. A couple of pens (blue or black) for the FRQs. Be sure to have a couple in case one runs out of ink!
  3. A photo id (government issued or school id)
  4. I recommend bringing a NICE eraser. You don't want to smear up your scantron form with a crappy, dry, ineffective one if you wish to change answers.
  5. A watch (that does not beep!), in case you are seated in a place where the clock is not easy to see. NO smartwatches, or any type of watch that can communicate externally.
  6. A sweatshirt? It's ideal to dress in layers so you can adjust if you're too hot/cold.
DO NOT BRING:
  1. Cellular phones, smart watches, music players, or personal data assistants (PDAs)
  2. Books, correction fluid, dictionaries, highlighters, or notes
  3. Scratch paper (notes can be made on portions of the exam booklets)
  4. Calculators
  5. Watches that beep or have an alarm
  6. Portable listening or recording devices (even with headphones) or photographic equipment
  7. Clothing with psych-related information on it (e.g. sorry, even Psych Club shirts are a no-no)
  8. Food or drinks
HOW TO GET THERE:

The Korger Chestnut School building is located at 140 W. Elm St. (See map below). Enter through the back doors (the parking lot entrance). Look for signs to direct you to your testing room. You will need to bring a picture ID.
