How to use this tool?
This calculator estimates your AP U.S. Government and Politics score (1–5) based on your performance in two sections:
- Multiple-Choice Correct – Enter the number of correct answers out of 55 (whole numbers only).
- Free-Response Points – Enter the total points earned out of 23 (you can use 0.5 increments).
Step-by-step:
- Fill in both fields with your scores.
- Click Calculate Score.
- Your estimated AP score (1–5) appears, along with a breakdown of the composite formula.
Note: The composite score uses these weights: each multiple-choice correct = 1.0909 points, each free-response point = 1.7391 points. The final AP score is based on the composite total (≥90 = 5, ≥75 = 4, ≥60 = 3, ≥45 = 2, below 45 = 1).
