Crams 2023 FAQ
Have questions about Crams? We got you! Here is our list of frequently asked questions. If your question was not answered, please email us at hi@fiveable.me .
What is Fiveable?
Fiveable helps students feel confident for big exams. We create accessible resources to help you remember everything through live reviews, study guides, cheatsheets, and practice questions. Founded by a former AP teacher, built by product and design nerds, Fiveable aims to make learning more accessible and equitable for all. Read our About Us page for more information!
Who hosts the Cram Finales?
For each subject, we have a dedicated team of Teacher and Student Hosts who will walk you through all of the most important material to prepare for your AP exam. These are teachers who actually teach the subject, as well as students who have taken the class before and mastered the material.
Why are Cram Finales 5 days?
We want to provide as many opportunities as possible for you to study before your exam without overwhelming you. Nights 1 and 2 will cover all of the important content of the subject. Nights 2 and 3 will help you practice the skills necessary for the exam. The last night, the Grand Finale, will give you a variety of supports to prepare you to take the exam the next day. We believe that this structure will leave you feeling even more confident to take your AP exam!
Why are Cram Finales only offered for 7 subjects?
Ya, we know this might be stressful if you're taking multiple APs. We narrowed our focus down to the 7 biggest subjects in order to rebuild the Cram experience, which we'll expand again next year. The good news is we still have plenty of free resources available for the other 31 APs!
Do I need to get multiple Cram Passes if I take multiple AP subjects?
Yes! In order to participate in Cram Finales for each AP subject you are taking, you will need a separate Cram Pass for each. You will be able to use the same account for each of your Cram Finales!
How can I see a full schedule of all the different Cram Finales?
Check our events page to see the full schedule of our finales!
What if I can’t make it to one of the Cram Finale nights?
Don’t worry! All Cram Finale nights will be recorded, and you will have access to them throughout the Cram Finale time.
How do I access my Cram Pass on the day of the Finale?
Once you purchase your Cram Pass, you will receive an email from us with your own personal link to the events. You will use the same link for each night of your Cram Finales.
How do I access the livestreams?
We are using a platform called Crowdcast to deliver you the best livestreaming experience possible. When you purchase your Crams, you will create a Crowdcast account to access the Finales when it’s time. Please note that your Crowdcast account is separate from your Fiveable account, but we recommend using the same personal email address for both platforms.
Is financial aid available?
We understand that not everyone can afford to purchase Cram Passes. If you need financial assistance in order to participate, please fill out this survey and we will be in touch. Please fill the survey out by April 19th to qualify!
