AP Macro calculator FAQ
Your raw points from each section (Multiple Choice (66%), Free Response (34%)) are weighted and combined into a 0–100 composite, which is then converted to a 1–5 AP score. Use the calculator above to see exactly where your numbers land.
A 3 is generally considered passing and earns college credit at many schools, while selective colleges often want a 4 or 5. Check your target school’s AP credit policy for the exact cutoff.
The section weights match the College Board’s, and the 1–5 cutoffs are based on recently released exams. Official curves move slightly each year, so treat this as a strong directional estimate rather than a guarantee.
