How to Use the AB Calc Score Calculator
- Enter Multiple Choice (MC) Scores: Input the number of correct and incorrect answers (0–45 each). The total correct + incorrect cannot exceed 45.
- Enter Free Response (FRQ) Scores: For each of the 6 free-response questions, enter a score from 0 to 9.
- Calculate: Click the Calculate Score button.
- Interpret Results:
- Composite Score = MC Score (correct − 0.25 × incorrect) + total FRQ points.
- AP Score (1–5) is determined by the composite:
- ≥70 → 5
- 60–69 → 4
- 50–59 → 3
- 40–49 → 2
- <40 → 1
- Validation: All inputs must be within their allowed ranges. Errors will appear if values are invalid.
Tip: Use whole numbers only. The MC penalty is a quarter point per incorrect answer.

Frequently Asked Questions
The composite score is the sum of the multiple choice score (correct minus 0.25 times incorrect) and the total free response score (sum of 6 questions, each out of 9).
The maximum composite score is 99, with 45 multiple choice questions (max score 45) and 54 free response points (6 questions × 9 points each).
The AP score is estimated based on composite score ranges: 70+ = 5, 60-69 = 4, 50-59 = 3, 40-49 = 2, below 40 = 1. These ranges are approximate and may vary yearly.
