I have an AP World History quiz on my first day of High School.  :verysad:

Apparently they make this one the hardest as to scare off people that don't belong in the AP class that signed up for it (it was an open course).

AP testing must've changed since I did it ten years ago. Our was only on a scale of 1-5. AP European History was the hardest history one, if I recall correctly.

Changed my wallpaper to an image of the Carina nebula taken by the hubble space telescope. Now off to find out what a nebula is on wikipedia...

The scale for the testing is 1-9 nowadays. Most colleges are accepting a minimum of 5.

I don't remember AP classes being on a scale from 1-5.  Maybe it depends on the state.

Hmm. That's interesting. In the 90s in Ohio, at least, it was 1-5, 5 being maximum, most schools taking a 3 at the bottom end. My, how things change.

I got all of my information from this movie and this one and this one but I seemed to fail when I wrote mine. I think my professor was full of crap....

I made a robot fridge. This is just a prototype. I'll make the parts out of card and cut them to shape. Excuse the rust. My landlord refuses to upgrade the 1970s fridge.

Well, that's the best thing i've ever seen. Open it up and take a pic for curio in the I Want to See a Picture Thread.  :D

I can do one better. It seems obvious to me now that I must give my robot fridge a phallus. Stay tuned...
