Mr. P, I have watched a lot of your videos and they were so useful, but I would rather see you doing more Multiple choice or free-response questions from the college board !!
I have a question. Regarding your first point where you discussed how you should answer the parts of the free-response question you're most comfortable with, what should I do if the proceeding steps build on the subsequent steps. For example, if part D depends on part D, which depends on part B, which depends on part A, etc.?
Let's say part C depends on the answer for part B. I have given full credit for part C for a student who answered part C completely correctly which included a variable they have labelled "the correct answer for part B". You also might be awarded 1 point for writing, "I know I need to use this equation, 'correct equation', however, I have run out of time." Communicate as clearly as possible, and, if you guess, only give one guess per part.
That WAS SOOOO HELPFUL... and just want to make sure, (can be obvious) even though I do not know how to solve that problem, (even though it is wrong) if I reasonably connect those given variables with known equation and "solve" it, you meant that I still have chance to get at least 1 point right?
You should make your best attempt to at least begin every problem by identifying equation(s) you use and begin solving. Many times that will at least earn you a point.
Hi Mr. Physics Guy! So on FRQs, if I'm given a position function, and want to find the velocity, and take the derivative, but down specifically write (dx/dt=v) will I not get the point? Ex. 2003 Mech I, if I just write v=1.5t^2+2, will I only get one point?
My position (pun intended) is that you should always write down every step along the way. This will decrease the chances of making mistakes and make everything clear to the grader. So, please, just write every step down.
Flipping Physics that's what I plan on doing from now on! I was just trying to grade my own FRQs and wasn't sure if I'd get the point for it or not. Thanks a lot for all these great videos!
Suup! Good luck to you! Remember to stay calm. You've got this. We've got this. We've been studying this stuff for months, now it's time to show what we've learned!
+Jacob Smith Every number answer you give should have units or dimensions on it. 15 m/s, 25 m/s^2, 17 N, 14 kg, 17.9 g, 3.2 slugs, 0.12 mA, 19 mJ, etc. (Unless it doesn't have units or dimensions like the coefficients of friction.)
Friction questions always slow me down. :)
Cramming for that AP 2020 Physics 1 Exam: COVID-19 Edition [Platinum].
oh yes, 24 minutes left and counting :P
Remember to breathe!
I watched all these videos and only just realized they were the same person I’m gonna fail
Who's here for the Corona-cation
What is energy’s favorite season?
spring
;)
Couldn't it also be fall... gravitational potential...
That gave me an instant 5
Too bad I have so little of it in the season our exams are held
Lol ayyy! Night before the test. Gl everyone!
I really wish I had discovered your channel earlier in my high school career. This is really helpful thank you!
Good luck for tomorrow everyone!
Hello Mr. P, I really appreciated your videos. Could you possibly make a video about 2020 physics exam strategies ?
2020 physics exam strategies are to work on past free response questions, which is why I am creating solutions for those problems.
you are a very good actor mr p!
Thanks. I do my best.
Test is in 10 days this is very helpful for making sure I solve everything correctly
Glad I can help!
Mr. P, I have watched a lot of your videos and they were so useful, but I would rather see you doing more Multiple choice or free-response questions from the college board !!
aye who here the night before the test cramming watching this???
yep. not ready
Less than 3 hours for the exam... :(
Where yall from?
That exam actually wasn't that bad...
I thought the multiple choice was not that bad
Who's out here studying morning of the exam?
Lol me! Good luck 👍
Thanks for these all suggestions you provide me great information about exams

Thank you so much for helping me to prepare!
You are welcome. Enjoy the exam today!
My AP test is in an hour and a half lol. I hope this helps
Best of luck!!
Whats ur score ?
Hi Mr. Physics Guy!

I hope I get at least a 3
thank you
Digital AP Physics exam today doesn't let us skip around the questions. RIP to the strat of answering the easier questions first I guess.
Yep. It's a bummer.
Uhh what if I'm least confident in all of the frq and have very little ideas(I've just watched the beginning of the video)
Sounds like you have a lot of work ahead of you. I would suggest you get started with some consistent studying right now.
Flipping Physics ok well I'm starting out on my study so wish me luck!
Okay, well, best of luck to you!
Aiming for a 4 😆👏 #onlinetesting
What does it mean to "Dimension" my answers?
***** use the right units brahhh
Why is BO always late
I came here because mooser told me to
Moosy is life
Who's here cramming for the exam on Tuesday?
yes please save me
Same. Goodluck to yall!
did you catch the reference to that song by exo? save me? hah. wait, is that even by exo?? IS THAT EVEN A SONG 0X physics makes me insaneeeeeee
Its BTS Save Me haha! Yep! I mean im good with numbers and all but physics test is mostly variables and theoretical situations!!
me
something is confusing
At first I thought I saw Chris Chan in the thumbnail
Anyone from quarantine ?
Suup! Good luck to you! Remember to stay calm. You've got this. We've got this. We've been studying this stuff for months, now it's time to show what we've learned!
Musser sent me
Same
Mr. Maupin don't read this
IB is better
I bet there are very few people who know enough about both IB and AP Physics to really be able to compare the two.
IB is a joke compared to AP lol
+MopTopRock Very true
What does it mean to "dimension your answers"?
+Jacob Smith Every number answer you give should have units or dimensions on it. 15 m/s, 25 m/s^2, 17 N, 14 kg, 17.9 g, 3.2 slugs, 0.12 mA, 19 mJ, etc. (Unless it doesn't have units or dimensions like the coefficients of friction.)
Oh, I see. Thanks for explaining.
+Jacob Smith Please, please, please remember to do so. It's such a silly reason to lose points. 😬
