<p>Do we need to get only 80% or higher of the multiple choice to get 5? I heard this somewhere.</p>
<p>it varies by test, but honestly, you don’t even need to get 80% right to get a 5.
for example, i know for calc (both ab&bc), you only need around 60-70% correct to get a 5.</p>
<p>yeah I heard for chemistry 5 you could get less than 50 percent. But… anybody know for sure for world history test? Because, I have nobody to help me with the free response, and i’m not a good writer either. So I was thinking if I ace the multiple choice I can kinda compensate for the free response part. Obviously, if only 80% is good enough, that won’t work.</p>

<p>though this might might contain the most accurate/updated info, this should help </p>
<p>@ hahajiyun-
you dont have to be a good writer to ace the essay portions of the ap history tests. just make sure you have all the facts in an organized manner so the ap graders can find the information they’re looking for quickly and give you the points for it. For frq practice, go to collegeboard and look at previous frq questions. Don’t write full-on essays when practicing, but jst make quick outlines to answer each question and then, compare your responses to the scoring guidelines (also on CB). Good luck! :)</p>
<p>Thank you so much sushifureak!!! you are wonderful! i’ve been reading “craking the DBQ” of TPR and thinking this is way too complicated:[… Your advice helps much better!!!</p>
<p>and… so according to the linked thread, getting one more multiple choice question helps…right?</p>
