So I’ve managed to make an A throughout the year in my Calc AB class. And this isn’t one of those joke “easy A” classes. But I am finding the AP exam hard. Like I just did the non calculator part and I missed so many. (Didn’t score since I still need to do the calculator and free response). Anyone else gone through this? What last min prep do you recommend? My goal is a 4. Also does anyone have any idea of the grading? Like what is the most we can miss to get a 4 or a 5?
The score cutoffs vary somewhat from year to year.
On the 2008 exam, out of 108 total points,
68 or higher is a 5
52-67 is a 4.

My class is considerably difficult (having taken AP calc exam self-study when I was in grade 9, this time a retake but I forgot most of the contents), but I feel the exam is within reasonable difficulty (again, I took the course twice).
