AP Bio Nationals -- Grading Scheme

<p>Can any one give me the calculations for AP Biology Nationals Exam.</p>

<p>What is the raw score to get a '5'? Is it 60 or 80? I have seen all kinds of information. Cliff Notes says if you get a 60, it is a 5. Is this true? Please help</p>

<p>no, cliffs just estimatesthat because the multiple choice section is 60% and frq is 40% and the ranges change each year cus curves..
anyways i think the test is out of 120..? 100 multiple choice and 40 points for essays.. you times ur multiple choice score by .75 or something and take ouff a fourth of a point for each one u got wrong and times essay score by 1.5... i think.</p>

<p>No, the test has 100 questions. It uses the same format of Cliff. My teacher is using the same scheme for finals except she is offering 'A' for 80-100 range. Getting a composite score of 80, is just hard.</p>

<p>yeah i said 100 multiple choice [qts] but the test is out of 120 points i think.</p>
