Written Response
| Row | My Grade | College Board Grade | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
| Row 1: Program Purpose and Function (0-1 points) | 1/1 (total) | 1/1 (total) | - [x] describes the overall purpose of the program. - [x] describes what functionality of the program is demonstrated in the video. - [x] describes the input and output of the program demonstrated in the video. |
| Row 2: Data Abstraction (0-1 points) | 1/1 | 1/1 | - [x] includes two program code segments: - one that shows how data has been stored in this list (or other collection type). - one that shows the data in this same list being used as part of fulfilling the program’s purpose. - [x] identifies the name of the variable representing the list being used in this response. - [x] describes what the data contained in this list is representing in the program. |
| Row 3: Managing Complexity (0-1 points) | 1/1 | 1/1 | - [x] includes a program code segment that shows a list Complexity being used to manage complexity in the program. - [x] explains how the named, selected list manages complexity in the program code by explaining why the program code could not be written, or how it would be written differently, without using this list. |
| Row 4: Procedural Abstraction (0-1 points) | 1/1 | 1/1 | - [x] includes two program code segments: - one showing a student-developed procedure includes two program code segments: with at least one parameter that has an effect on the functionality of the procedure. - one showing where the student-developed procedure is being called - [x] describes what the identified procedure does and how it contributes to the overall functionality of the program. |
| Row 5: Algorithm Implentation (0-1 points) | 1/1 | 1/1 | - [x] includes a program code segment of a student-developed algorithm that includes - sequencing - selection - iteration - [x] explains in detailed steps how the identified algorithm works in enough detail that someone else could recreate it. |
| Row 6: Testing (0-1 points) | 1/1 | 1/1 | - [x] describes two calls to the selected procedure identified in written response 3c. Each call must pass a different argument(s) that causes a different segment of code in the algorithm to execute. - [x] describes the condition(s) being tested by each call to the procedure. - [x] identifies the result of each call |
My Score: 6/6
College Board's Score: 6/6
Discrepancies: There were no differences between the score College Board gave and I gave. We each graded the submission 6/6. This made sense, as this submission followed each and every one of the requirements from the rubric.
What my program will need: I would need to follow all of the criteria on the rubric provided by College Board just as in second submission. The submission features a lot of detail in the answers of the written portion, perhaps there was more detail than was asked for/necessary. This is good to keep in mind as I will make sure to be very precise and detailed in my answers for the actual AP Test.
Why the submission did not fail: This submission met each and every criteria as well as additional information, leaving no door open for failure.

My Score: 5/6
College Board's Score: 4/6
Reflection
Discrepancies: In terms of scoring, I had given this submission a total score of 5/6, while College Board graded it a 4/6. Both College Board and myself agreed upon a lack of managing complexity. Where I was mistaken was when I was grading the program purpose and function. For the criteria of the written portion, I had thought that the submission checked all of the boxes. College Board took a point off due to a lack of actually explaining the purpose of the program - rather the submission only explained the function.
What my program will need: My program will need to meet all of the criteria, leaving no possibilities of mistake. This is due to the fact that even if a single point is marked off, then the entire submission will be graded a 0. For example, Submission 1 was missing the explanation of the purpose of their program and program management that was not as efficient as College Board had wanted - resulting in an F/Fail.
Why the submission may have failed: The submission may have failed because College Board took a point off due to a lack of actually explaining the purpose of the program - rather the submission only explained the function. Additionally, the use of program management was lackluster, which also invoked a 0/1 from College Board.
