AP & SATII Score Correlation Survey

Test Preparation
1

<p>I'm sure it's been done elsewhere on this forum before, but I'd like to know wether people's AP scores correspond to a certain score range on the SATII, especially now that most of us have our SATII scores and are impatiently awaiting AP reports....</p>

<p>11% earn a 5 on the AP US, for instance. Within what range does that 11% score on the SAT?</p>

<p>It goes without saying of course that if you do well on one, you do well on the other, but is a 750+ indeed equal to a 5? If you have SAT and AP scores in the same subject, it'd be great if you could post them here for comparison....thanks :)</p>

<p>according to this, a 750 on US hist gets a 5 on the ap</p>

3

<p>i got a 610 on the world sat ii, but a 5 on the ap.. so, ..</p>

4

<p>ah...did you take them around the same time, with no issues?</p>

5

<p>i don't suppose this thread would be worth salvaging...............?</p>

6

<p>i took the ap in may and the sat ii in june</p>

7

<p>AP euro -->5
World SATii (big mistake, no additional prep)-->660</p>

8

<p>the world sat ii is so stupid, it has like a random picture of a statue of a half naked woman and it asks you where it was made. :|</p>

<p>CollegeBoard should publish stuff on this, because when you take an SAT II, there is a question before the SAT II asking if you took the corresponding AP class. </p>

<p>Also, for math IIC, it asks you which calculator you use, and what math you have learned.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if, and where, CB publishes this info and the correlations between scores and these factors?</p>

10

<p>well, I can offer limited data (USH AP is projected)</p>

<p>Chem: 780 / 5
USH: 780 / no way in hell I got a 5; probably a 4</p>

11

<p>sonar: a fluke? or did everything otherwise go as expected on the AP US?</p>

<p>i think the best we can do is look at percentiles :/ You're more likely to fall into a trap on the AP because it's just a more complicated test formatwise...i suppose</p>

12

<p>I must warn you, percentiles on the SAT lls and APs are not comparable because of different population taking the tests.
There's research into AP/PSAT correlation at this link.
