Frequently Asked Questions
The calculator uses a weighted composite score: MC correct (out of 60) weighted by 0.8333, plus FRQ score (out of 40) weighted by 1.875. The composite is then mapped to AP scores 1-5 based on typical cutoffs.
The maximum composite score is 60 * 0.8333 + 40 * 1.875 = 50 + 75 = 125. A composite of 115+ typically yields a 5.
The cutoffs are approximate based on historical data. Official cutoffs may vary slightly each year. This tool provides an estimate.
