AP Score Calculator

MiniWebtool’s AP Score Calculator gives a 1–5 estimate using 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.

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.

How is an AP score calculated?

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.

For APUSH, the 1-5 estimate uses these assumed cutoffs on the weighted composite: 5 at 72% or higher, 4 at 58% or higher, 3 at 44% or higher, and 2 at 30% or higher. Anything below 30% shows as a 1. Other subjects use their own assumed cutoffs, which are shown in the results after you press Predict. These cutoffs are estimates, not official College Board conversion cutoffs.
