Frequently Asked Questions
The calculator uses a composite score derived from multiple-choice (correct minus 0.25 times incorrect) and free-response scores, then maps it to the 1-5 AP scale based on typical cutoffs.
The exam has a multiple-choice section (65 questions) and a free-response section with four tasks: Email Reply, Argumentative Essay, Conversation, and Cultural Comparison.
It's difficult because free-response counts significantly. A strong multiple-choice performance helps, but balanced scores are recommended for a high overall score.
