Bio: Pretty basic and generic. Nothing too overly detailed. I used Destroyer (from 2007) and Cliffs AP Bio.
Chem: Lot of calculations about Keq and Ksp, wasn't expecting that. Used Destroyer and Chad's videos (amazing!). Seriously, those were the best $30 I have EVER spent.
OChem: Not too many reactions, mostly conceptual stuff. 1 IR and 2 MNR questions. Used Destroyer, class notes, Chad's videos.
PAT: So upset about this. This was always my strong section. Can't believe my score dropped so low. The keyholes and TFE were IMPOSSIBLE! MUCH MUCH harder and ridiculous looking than last year. I literally said "what the ****!!" out loud 4-5 times in just TFE alone. I was running out of time by the time I got to pattern folding, so I had to just guess on a 5-6 of them. Used CDP. CDP: 22, 23, 22, 24, 25
RC: Again, WTF? I had Piano last year and got a 21, so I'm not even sure what happened. This is (was) also my strong section because I'm a pretty fast reader. I had Aging/Gene therapy/Telomers. Kind of wish I had Piano again, I actually thought it was easier. Because with bio stuff, you have to put aside what you already know about the topic and answer it straight from the passage.
QR: I am so horrible at math so this was expected. Thank goodness for the calculator. I ran out of time towards the end when I had 10 more problems to do with 3 minutes left. I wish I had skipped more problems I had trouble with because as I was rushing to randomly click answers before the time ended, I noticed that problems 35-40 were sooo simple and easy, totally would have gotten them right. Those tricky test writers. I only used Destroyer.
