AP BIO: how do you figure out your score?

<p>Does anyone have the official CB version on how to determine your score? Like what's the cutoff for a 5?</p>

<p>Cut-off for 5 in both bio and chem is approx 60%. CB never officially releases it. It varies year to year.</p>

<p>Does this mean I can get a 60% on MC and 6/10 average on all the questions on the writing section and still a 5?</p>

<p>That's variable, because that could give you a upper end 4 or a lower end 5, since the cutoff varies every year.</p>

<p>What's the equation to find your raw score? I know the 120 questions one but I don't know the 100 one. And how many questions are on it anyway? 100 or 120?</p>

<p>There are 100 questions on the MC.</p>

<p>what ? in the PR book it says you should answer 85 MC to score a 4, given that you might get a few wrong, and basically it says you can leave 10-15 blank???</p>

<p>and the free response it says nothing, like how much out of the 40 pts is a 4/5??</p>

<p>btw do we have to know about "A group of asci formed from crossing light-spored Sordaria with dark-spored produced the following results"</p>

<p>Number of Asci Counted Spore Arrangement</p>
