Taking AP Exam

On the 14th of May I had the misfortune of taking the AP European History official AP exam.  Throughout my entire academic career, I would have to say that was the worst exam I have ever had the pleasure of taking.  It was about 4 hours long, and throughout the entire duration of the exam, we had a total of ten minutes for a break. The room the test was taking place in was a little room that had three cameras all pointed at the students, two windows, and wooden desks that had for what ever reason a wooden plank at the bottom making it rather difficult to sit comfortably. All of these three factors were hard enough,  now adding the content of the test made it about thirty times worse.
The exam had a lot of questions that were extremely detailed. Asking what a quote means from a passage that my class read at the beginning of the year was a question that I simply was not ready for. Not to mention their were other multiple choice questions asking me who painted this piece of art and the next question that I was always so eager to answer would ask: who is being painted. Now we had some tough questions on exams we took in class, but not a single one  of them were able to compete with these.  These types of questions would go on sixty more time before I had the pleasure of writing one DBQ and two essay questions. Anyone in that room could feel how eager all the students including myself were, to leaving.
I do think that I did alright on writing the DBQ and the two essay questions I had to respond to. It just became more and more difficult to write each word as time progressed. Finding myself losing motivation as I realized that I had to write five more paragraphs. I can not say that I am upset with the length of the exam. The AP test givers must do what they have to in order to ensure the student earns their grade, and must fight through thick and thin to earn the college credit. I personally believe that I passed my own personal test to see if I could sit through about five hours of nothing but large amounts of questions pertaining to history. As I said earlier, I got through it, and as a result I left that exam room with my head held high.
