Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around the search for old AP Physics C exam questions and solutions, specifically from the 1970s and 1980s to the present. Participants are looking for resources to aid in studying for an upcoming midterm exam in mechanics, as well as for the AP exam in general.
Discussion Character
- Homework-related
- Meta-discussion
Main Points Raised
- One participant requests old AP Physics C questions and solutions for both mechanics and E&M, suggesting it could be beneficial for study purposes.
- Another participant notes that while free response questions are available online, finding past released multiple choice questions and solutions is challenging and asks for assistance in obtaining them.
- A third participant expresses a desire to access old exam materials and seeks help from others who may have resources to share.
- One participant recommends using review books from publishers like The College Board, Kaplan, Barron's, or The Princeton Review, which typically include practice exams, and provides a link to the College Board's website for free response questions.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants generally agree on the usefulness of old exam materials for studying, but there is no consensus on the availability of specific resources, particularly for multiple choice questions.
Contextual Notes
Limitations include the potential unavailability of certain materials and the reliance on external resources such as review books and the College Board's website for practice questions.
Who May Find This Useful
Students preparing for the AP Physics C exam or midterm exams in mechanics who are seeking additional practice materials.
