<p>One of my classmates said that Collegeboard is changing the format of the AP test so that there are only 4 choices for each MC question.</p>
<p>But I just looked up the Fall 2010 Collegeboard Course Description, and the sample questions all have 5 choices. Is my classmate just BSing?</p>
<p>Yes, your classmate is misinformed.</p>
<p>Does anybody know what percentage of apush MC is generally “good enough” to get a 5?</p>
<p>58 MC and really good essays will get you a five. </p>
<p>You don’t have to do perfect on both. It can be lopsided</p>
<p>I wish. The College Board wants to see that you’re “College material” and that is why they make the tests arduous.</p>
<p>They are changing it to four choices. But it’s for 2012-2013 I think.</p>
<p>^They should not even have changed it in the first place. Now, if what you say is true, there won’t be much of a challenge doing the AP exam.</p>
<p>It’s not like they can just increase the points you need to get certain scores, as the AP wizard would see it as a threat and assume someone is usurping his throne as ruler of collegeboardia.</p>
