Honestly during the AP exam I was at the lowest of my mental health but with the effort I had left and your videos I managed to pull what I can. I opened college board and I saw I got a 5!
I didn’t finish half of the third SAQ, but I felt all my answers were pretty good, so I expected a 4 The 3 days before the exam I binge watched all of Heimler’s APW videos and took notes I got a 5
I wasn’t expecting a great score, all I wanted was a 3, but when I checked this morning and got a 5 I was so excited!! I never expected a 5 but I guess my hard work pulled off!!!
Thanks again for all your hard work this year, Mr. Heimler! I know my students and I really appreciated it. Congrats to everyone that took AP tests this year (regardless if you passed or not)!
Last yr I studied for APUSH by binge watching a couple of his videos the day of the exam. Learned more ab the exam from him in a few hours than I did from my teacher in an entire school yr and got a 4
Got a 3 in Apush and I’m honestly really happy with that score because I put most of my study time into that test and I’m glad it paid off. Especially since I watched ur videos to help me prepare for it.
I got a high B in the class and a 4 on the test. I studied for an our everyday 13 days prior to the test (except for the day beforehand, so I studied for a total of 12 hours). This was the first time in my life I had ever actually studied and let me tell you, it helped A LOT. Big congrats to everyone who took the test. Non of them are easy, and just showing up to it is a huge accomplishment.
Same here I had a high B and got a 4 but the difference is I never opened the textbook and didnt study at all for the test lmao. I winged it so hard and guessed on the mcq completely.
@@Arjun-td5bw At least you didn’t suffer from spontaneous disqualification + banishment from everything and anything denied credit and wasted whole year
@@Arjun-td5bw At the least, they had a chance which they should have executed better. I was given nothing and automatic disqualification and no way of representing my knowledge of the course so banishment no credit all for nothing :((
I got a 1 on two of my ap exams and when I saw those 1s my heart dropped, and it was the only thing I could think about throughout the whole day. I’m going to college in a month and I feel like I’m ready but these scores made me think otherwise because I paid attention in class, and took practice tests as the exam date was drawing closer. Thank you for this video, I really needed it today.
Don’t doubt yourself! If you feel like you are ready, then chances are that you are. AP tests are way different than college and this year changed a lot because of the pandemic. Don’t stress too much!😃
I got a 1 in APUSH (not surprising) but made a 98% in the class. It really stings when you put the effort in but don't get the grade, and it upset me too a bit but I know that it won't prevent me from going to the university I want to next year because I have many more achievements to show for. I know you've got plenty of hard work put in my guy, be proud of your strengths and learn from the rest. You're going to do great in college, all the best
You are a hard worker! Those hardworking skills will pay off someday, even in college. I hope you do amazing in college. And I always tell myself that if I fail an AP Test (it happened to me twice), then retaking the class in college will be much easier had I not took the AP class in the first place.
I hope your doing okay, I took my APWH test 3 days ago and I feel like I bombed it, but it’s okay dude! Life goes on, and there’s more to life than this test.
I had a B in US History class and ended up getting a 1 on the AP exam. I am pretty bummed out cause I was hoping to get college credit and also because I spent $92 on the test. I also wanted to make my parents proud, but even though I bombed the test my parents are still supportive to me which makes me happy.
@@parky7417 truly, tho it's probably cause I pushed off studying last minute. I forgotten a lot of stuff because for some reason I had ap us history class only one semester and unfortunately it was during the fall semester. This was during the time we had virtual classes because of covid. I also had a hard time focusing during that class, so that's probably why I failed the ap exam.
@@dayzmei it's ok just dont push yourself too hard. These are hard classes and yeah the covid situation definitely made it sucky. You tried and as long as you and your parents are happy then that really what matters. 😊
@@agpbeats6916 thing is for some reason when I took ap us history I only had it for the fall semester. exams were in the spring. This was also when we had to do virtual classes because of covid and i had a hard time with that. It's still my fault for not studying before the exam and not being able to focus during class. I also think a big part on why I got a 1 was because I didn't complete one of the essays in the essay portion.
I got a 3 in AP world and I'm happy with it cause I didn't study that much (very minimal) , and a 3 was my predicted score so I am happy with it especially because it was my first AP class.
Thank you so much. I really needed this. I just took the APUSH exam today and got totally flustered during it even though I studied so hard and worked hours studying for months. Thank you for all of your study videos and support - even if I do get a bad score I don't regret (at all) watching all of your fun and helpful videos. ☺
I worked so hard, I studied so hard, I did so many practice tests until I started getting 4s and 5s each time for each one. Still, I didn't get a single 5 out of all 5 of my AP exams, and I know it's good that I passed all my exams except for one, but I can't help but feel disappointed since I put months into studying and didn't get the results I wanted. I get very anxious during exams but I really thought I'd get at least one 5 this year. I should be thankful that I at least got 3s and 4s, but I can't bring myself to be proud of myself. I don't want to be that annoying kid who says things like "dang, i only got a 99, I should've got a 100" but it just hurts since the exams cost so much and I couldn't get any 5s :/ Sorry for this little vent. I just needed to get this off my chest.
Your work ethic will be with you for a lifetime. It sucks you didn’t get the results you wanted, same for me, but just know this doesn’t reflect on your worth as a student, future employee, person, etc. Keep your head up and go do great things in your life. ❤️
I truly understand the disappointment with the outcome not being what you wanted but for what it’s worth I’m really REALLY proud of you!! Those are still GREAT scores; especially with all things considered (test anxiety is a BEAST, trust me I feel you). All this to say I’m super freaking proud of you and I hope that in time you’ll let yourself be proud of you too, because you deserve to!
Loved my class, learned a lot, took a lot of notes, binge-watched Heimler's History the weeks leading up to the test, still didn't do well. Disappointing, but it's not like this score will really affect my life that much going forward 🤷♀️
Thank you so much Mr. Heimler for putting so much effort into helping us students study for these AP exams. Really, thank you. 😊❤️ Congrats to everyone who passed. To those who didn’t, I just want to let you know that a score doesn’t define you. You tried your best and that’s what matters. Have a great day. 🙂💖
me too..i had a 103% in my class, did nightly study sessions, and skipped out on many weeks of fun plans to make sure i was ready for this test. felt pretty confident both before and after taking it, but was pretty bummed when i got a 2. even my friends who skipped multiple frqs and mcqs did better than me.
@@noellewhorf1578 oh my gosh that sounds so disappointing. but at least commend yourself for trying your best and giving it your all. that is all you could've asked of yourself. anyways, this score doesn't define you, so don't let it bring you down :)
@@noellewhorf1578 wow…i’m so proud of your dedication! it’s amazing you continued to push through, just remember this score does not define you. you’re amazing!
I also think it’s important to remember that, no matter what score you received, the true value of taking the course comes from the content and learning techniques you were introduced to in the class. I truly believe that bc of taking apwh, I have a better understanding of how today’s social issues are a product of centuries of strained foreign relationships, colonialism, industrial development, etc. And having to practice DBQs and LEQs have made me much better at collecting pieces of evidence and connecting them to form a well-developed yet succinct argument. At the end of the day, AP exams are standardized tests, and they can only measure so much, but if you were able to get something out of this class that you’ll be able to take with you elsewhere in life, then it really doesn’t matter if you got a 1 or a 5.
GOD still has a plan for you, dont worry, HE is still in control trust in HIM always!!! GOD BLESS, "FOR I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU SAYS THE LORD, PLANS TO PROSPER YOU AND NOT TO HARM YOU, PLANS TO GIVE YOU A HOPE AND A FUTURE."
It just means that on test day you were not able to reproduce what you were able to do in class. That's all. You consistently did well in class, but, for whatever reason, you didn't do that well on test day, Sounds like you should be proud of your consistent effort rather than your one time performance.
i’m an extremely high overachiever. pairing that with depression and anxiety while taking ap world history during freshman year honestly probably wasn’t the best choice for me (and i still chose to do apush this year). by test day i had convinced myself i was completely going to fail and get a 1 since i hadn’t been able to study whatsoever. i somehow managed to pull a 3 and i’m really grateful for you videos because i honestly think they helped a lot! you can bet i’m going to be using your apush videos all year!
and the mcq section was really confusing because all unit exams i had leading up to that point convinced i was going to fail that section since they were so difficult. the actual exam was SO much easier
Thank you so much for that 5! Couldn’t have done it without your help, this year was so crazy and no matter the score we all tried out best to make the most of the situation
With a 5 successfully secured in both AP World History and AP United States History, I want to give a sincere thank you to you, Mr. Heimler, as well as my AP World History teacher. You inspired me, challenged me, and instilled within me a love for history and learning. And somehow I pulled out a 5 on APUSH while purely thinking about Unicorns licking Heimler's beard the entire exam. I guess writing history essays is just second nature now lol. Anyways, you're an amazing person Heimler, and we all appreciate you. You have inspired so many people to think critically, challenge their thoughts, and enjoy a dad joke or two. Seriously I can't thank you enough for the time I've had these past 2 years, and I'm sad that I won't be taking AP gov to enjoy another year with you, but that's alright. I love history, learning, and just being smart and thinking critically. And while I don't think I'll use my new history skills that much in a Civil engineering degree, it will always be a personal passion of mine, and most of all you taught me how to work hard and value myself. Even though we all say you carried us through these difficult courses, you always respond that it was our own hard work and dedication that brought us through. You taught us history, but more importantly, you taught us confidence and self love.
My AP stats class was great this year, my twin brother and I competed with a friend of ours to see who could get the best grade on literally every test. We eventually started getting consistent 100s on them, wrecking the grading curve on the tests so bad that our teacher actually changed how he curved the tests so that people didn't get screwed over by our friendly competitions lol. At one point my brother actually lost points with the curve (before our teacher fixed it) because the curve was intended for the expected score of around 70%. I'm happy that he changed it at least, because the curve he was using at the end actually gave more points back to low scores than the one he was using at the start. We turned a 40% into a passing grade, for example. I just wish they told us what we got as a percentage on the AP tests so we could see who won on that one.
i tried so hard and studied for weeks and got a 3 on my apush while my friend who didn’t study at all got a 4…i’m happy i passed but it still kinda sucks
I was simultaneously surprised and so not surprised by my AP scores this year. Had Ap Physics and APUSH and both classes were run by teachers that, although they tried their best, just didn't cut it. AP Physics was worse in this regard. As soon as I took that AP Physics test I knew exactly what i was getting despite the months of studying on my own. Was not expecting APUSH though Got a 2 on Physics and a 5 on APUSH. Must be the difference between having Heimler videos to watch and not having them to watch lol
Omg sammmmme buddy!!!! I took four APs this year and passed all of them except physics. I got a 1 😭 I put in so much effort too but that was the only class I took virtually so that definitely had something to do with. Conversely, I also got a 5 on APUSH! I was so shocked but I’m so happy for both of us!
Same tho but i kinda lost hope for a 4 after i realized that that 2 out if the 3 of think it might have been the saq or sum i wrote in the wrong time period afterwards but barely managed to eek out a 3
I just want to thank you SO much for the review guide and all these videos. I navigated the DBQ & LEQ so much better with your help! You were a crucial part of my 4 point score. You’re the best!!!
Mr. Heimler, I don't know if you will see this, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I had to much anxiety for this exam and with like 3 weeks before the exam, I started to study. I initially struggled, but after watching your vids and taking notes on everything, not only did I feel more confident about the content, I found the APUSH exam to be far more manageable. Checked my score today and I am so happy that it was a 5! Again, thank you so much and I hope you continue to make videos for AP Gov and AP WH as well
Thank you so Heimler I got an A in Apush this year and a 3 on the exam, you also helped me get a 3 in world last year, hopefully you're around for gov next year you are the G.O.A.T 🙏‼️💯
heimler is an absolute goat. watched all of his apwh videos even when i was going through a hard personal time and got an A both semesters and a 5 on the exam! his tips for the dbq especially were likely the most influential in my score to those who didn't do so well, don't be hard on yourself! even if you put in a lot of effort, its inevitable that we eventually screw up on some tests. i spent a lot of time studying for a cs test and unfortunately failed it. don't treat it like a reflection of your ability and instead think of it as a learning opportunity for what you can modify in your next class :) - stay well through covid folks
I’m not even gonna lie I had a really good teacher, I just didn’t focus much at all with online school, and I somehow got a 3 and all that is because of heimler thanks
Ended up getting a 2 on apush exam. Not depressed, but a little disappointed. But the essays just rlly got me and I just kinda was skeptical over whether my writing was good or bad becuz my teacher has never graded one single freaking saq or dbq practice the entire f*****g year so I never knew if my essays were good. I prob would've gotten a 1 if it wasn't for heimler but If only I got a little feedback, then I could've gotten a 3. This sucks becuz I failed ap world last year and I wanted to come back and pass a history exam, but ofc coronavirus has to ruin everything. At least I passed another exam tho and history isn't my major for college
I got a 4 on my AP World History Exam last year because of your videos, and a 5 on my APUSH exam this year. I really can't thank you enough man, keep up the amazing work!
4 on the AP bio exam! I'm actually so happy cause I absolutely destroyed my brain for 2 weeks before the exam. Congratulations to everyone who took the tests! Regardless of how you did, your commitment to that particular class was enough to show up and take the test, which is worth celebrating in and of itself.
just wanted to come here and say you literally helped me so much last year. somehow i got a 5 on my apwh exam and if it wasn't for your videos, i'm confident that i wouldn't have done nearly as well. thank you so much!!
I got a 5 in AP World History thanks to a 64-page cram packet that a friend sent me, a prep book by a 3rd party company, and of course, tons and tons of Heimler videos! I can definitely say that my brain cows were sufficiently milked after that! Now, I'm taking AP Chemistry!
i got a 4 and it’s all thanks to you bestie. i wish my teacher got no credit and i know he’s going to pride himself on it. it got to a point where he literally just played your vids in class every day. I LOVE U HIEMLER
Thanks for helping me through such an unexpected difficult year, but I’m happy to say that all the hard work from studying with your videos to class review allowed me to pass my APush exam. Couldn’t be happier regardless of the number. After a year like that, a pass is a pass and I couldn’t be more thrilled with it.
Got a 4 on apush - thank you so much Heimler for carrying me with all of your videos!!!! And yes everyone - your life isn’t about AP scores - life is so much more than that!!!!
I honestly had a terrible year for grades and was in a really unfortunate situation the whole year that affected my grades, which is unusual because I’m a straight A student, but your videos help prepare me for the apush exam, which I got a 5 on. I passed my two other exams as well and wanted to thank you for your help. Keep up the good work
im crying from happnies you made me so much better, I worked so hard but did bad. you're like a father figure and it means a lot, your videos are great too, thank you
I got a 5 on APUSH this year, thank you so much Heimler for carrying me through the class with your videos! You basically taught me the entire course + how to write a DBQ/SAQ and I can’t thank you enough:)
Thank you Heimler!! At first I didn’t think these videos would help but my modern history teacher gave us several videos of yours to watch and they helped out a lot.
I just definitely failed my LEQ portion of the test, I hope my DBQ and MCQ (I felt really good about the dbq like I think it was genuinely a 6-7 depending on what counts as outside evidence) is enough to make up for it my saqs were fine but not amazing i tried really hard for this
I got a 3 and I’m really proud of that because this exam really stressed me out towards the end of the year. And with this score I can be reassured that my effort was accounted for and seen. Thank you so much for your videos and I’ll defiantly use them this year to help me with apush
Just took the AP Euro exam today. Thanks for all your help with everything, and seeing this made me feel better, that even if I fail it’s ok. Again, thanks for everything you do Heimler you’re amazing!!!
Im not gonna lie, i barely did any reading or homework during the 2nd half of the semester and had a D in the class. I did one packet at the end five days days before the exam and got a 4
I got a 4! I was nervous waiting for this test. But I was so confident thanks to Heimler. Can’t wait for apush next year. I’ll be seeing u soon Heimler, thanks so much. Everyone in 2022 good luck !
i never comment on youtube videos but i really wanted to thank you. your resources carried me through APUSH and i actually got a 5 on the exam ! i was not expecting that at all and i don't think it would've been possible without your youtube channel. thank you so much for your hard work heimler !!
Thank you SOOOO much Heimler with covid and all my class didnt even finish the curriculum, but thanks to your amazing videos and some other self studying I was able to get a 5 on the APUSH exam. You are a lifesaver.
I got a 4 on my first ever AP exam! Heimler, I cannot thank you enough. I literally watched your entire catalog of AP World History videos in less than a month. It helped a TON with the MCG’s and your other videos really improved my SAQ’s, LEQ’s, and DBQ’s. At the beginning of the year I was writing 1’s and 2’s, so I never thought I would score a 4 on the exam, and I have you to thank for that.
Bless you, Mr. Heimler! As always, great perspective. Alex just got 3 AP scores back. I am going to have him watch this video right now. You are the best!!😊
