Frequently Asked Questions
The composite score is calculated by weighting each section: multiple-choice (1.125 per correct), SAQs (3.0556 per point), DBQ (5.357 per point), and LEQ (6.25 per point). The composite is then mapped to a 1-5 AP score based on cutoffs.
The maximum composite score is approximately 120, but the exact maximum depends on the number of questions. This calculator uses typical weights.
This calculator is specifically designed for AP World History. Other AP history exams have different weights and scoring.
