<p>Does anybody know what our raw score should be in order to get a 5 for AP Gov't and Politics Exam?</p>
<p>What about Macroeconomics?</p>
<p>For Government it is about 80 or alittle more.</p>
<p>For economics it's more than 60...</p>
<p>I have googled it and somebody from CC in 1999 said to get a 5 on Gov't, you can only get 7 wrong on MC, and get 7/9 on all the essays assuming each is out of 9 points.</p>
<p>that's bull...seriously</p>
<p>So the MC section is 60 points and the essay section is 60 points??
And we have to get 80 out of those 120 points?
Doesn't make much sense because essays are not worth 60 points. 4 essays (~9-10 points each).</p>
<p>Or did you mean 80% rather than 80 points?</p>
<p>for gov, the essay question may indicate that one problem is worth 6 points, while the next is worth 8, but when its graded, they adjust each question to 15 points.</p>
<p>So 60 M.C. + 4 FR (15pts each) =120</p>
<p>I've heard mid to high eighties for a 5</p>
<p>yea, STLfan basically said what i wanted to say....</p>
<p>"one problem is worth 6 points, while the next is worth 8, but when its graded, they adjust each question to 15 points."</p>
<p>I guess I don't get it.</p>
<p>okay each essay you write is worth 15 points..that's all you really have to know...</p>
<p>which government are we talking?
there are 55 MC for comparative ...</p>
<p>Usg .</p>
<p>they probably score it from 3-9 just to make grading easier...then they convert that score into out of 15..i think</p>
<p>yep, that's the truth...</p>
