AP us curve...

<p>I know there has been a lot of discussion on it, as shown by all the threads floating around. Could we just consolidate an approximate chart that gives scores for 5s? Also, what would one need to average on the essays to get a 5 with an 80% MC?</p>

<p>I found this post by JamesFord for the consolidated curves thread:</p>

<p>CONSOLIDATED LIST of AP Exam Curves
I consolidated a few old threads regarding AP exam curves. These are organized by subject and are formatted as follows:</p>

<p>EXAM - (minimum raw score to get a 5)/(max composite score), min. to get a 4, 3, 2 - test year | approximate percentage of points needed for a 5</p>

<p>These are as detailed as possible but some exams just have percentages. These are the minimum percentages for a 5, 4, etc.</p>
