AP Score Calculator

Weighted composite

APUSH full exam: MCQ /55 ×40%, SAQ /9 ×20%, DBQ /7 ×25%, LEQ /6 ×15%. Enter each earned score separately; blank does not mean zero. A combined FRQ raw score cannot replace these fields.

APUSH weights and rubric maxima were checked against College Board on 2026-09-08; the announced 2027 question changes preserve the scoring rubrics. Other subjects use existing simplified presets whose current rules have not been verified here. Use your exam’s rubric and year. A larger point gain does not mean a topic is easier to learn.

Illustrative AP estimate

The 1–5 estimate uses assumed cutoffs, not a verified official annual curve. It is not a guaranteed score or college credit. Each row shows one component improved on its own; — means that component alone cannot reach the assumed target.
