Official Ap Curve Thread

<p>I have another question, what are the curves for the AP Literature and the AP Language exams.
Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>For Euro, that is correct. But you should aim for 64 or so m choices right to get a better chance of a 5, because of the deductions etc.</p>

<p>Anyone got any info on Chem and the two Econs?</p>

<p>old but...</p>

<h2>1994 AP Bio</h2>

<p>80-120 - 84% got 5's...16.1% 4's
63-79 - 12.2% 5's...70.5% 4's
49-62 - 14.9% 4's....69.4% 3's
33-48 - 15.4% 3's 76.2% 2's</p>

<h2>0-32 - .1% 3's..15.3% 2's....84.6% 1's</h2>

<p>I think the 94 exam was one of the harder ones...only 19% got 5's while 24% got 4's...and 23% got 3's.</p>

<p>Euro - 121/180 (5) - 2004 | 67.22%
Calc BC - 64/108 (5),53 (4),36 (3),26 (2) - 2003 | 59.26%
USH - 114/180 (5), 92 (4), 74 (3), 42 (2) - 2001 | 63.33%
Psych - 103/150 (5), 84 (4), 65 (3), 45, (2) - 2004 | 68.67%
Bio (MC) - 80/120 (5), 63 (4), 49 (3), 33(2), 1994 | 66.67% - DOESNT INCLUDE FR</p>

<p>Physics C mechanics
55/90</p>

<p>For a 5 on the Phys C Mech: get around a 23 raw score on the MC out of 35 and 30/45 points on the free response
For a 5 on the Phys C E&M: get around a 21 raw score on the MC out of 35 and 30/45 points on the free response</p>

<p>How about physics B, my school is weird and doesn't even offer a physics C class. (Due to the fact that almost every class is a year long so most students don't take Calculus till Senior year, and that it is a fairly new school)</p>

<p>Euro - 121/180 (5) - 2004 | 67.22%

Physics C M - 55/90 (5) | 61.11%
~eternity - r u sure. The previous post is much more lenient about physics C. Also, I think that curve is more similar or even harder than B, and B is supposedly more strict than C.</p>

<p>For the 1998 test you only needed a 49 for a 5 in E and M and only a 55 for Mechanics. If you know your calculus and even SAT level physics there is no way you get less than a 5 on either exam.</p>

<p>Comp Sci A: 60 - 80 = 5, AB: 70 - 100 = 5.</p>

<p>A is a joke, and AB is A with 4 extra topics (big-oh, linked lists, nodes, stacks/queues). Of these four, only two of them require any conceptual understanding beyond the mainframe established by A : Big-Oh and Nodes. Lists and queues are provided in the appendix, as are all major collection classes. In the FRQ it all becomes a matter of whether you can translate directions into code, which isn't terribly hard if you're acclimated to A.</p>

<p>Someone needs to tell me APES curve though. The 2003 exam says you need only a 100 out of 150 for a 5, REA says you need a 120 out of 160....I'm not sure who to trust, a 4 year old AP exam or a more recent prep book...</p>

<p>Euro - 121/180 (5) - 2004 | 67.22%

Physics C M - 55/90 (5) - 1998 | 61.11%
Physics C E+M - 49/90 (5) - 1998 |54.44%
Comp Sci A - 60/80 (5) | 75%
Comp Sci B - 70/100 (5) | 70%</p>

<p>BTW this is a name i just mad bc my real name was banned for a week</p>

<p>A and AB takers need not worry; Comp Sci is super easy if you know the essentials of programming as well as the concepts presented in C. I know Barron's tends to make things 10x harder than they seem, so be on the lookout for a very easy (compared to Barron's) test in May.</p>

<p>Does anyone happen to have the break down of the curve for AP English Language and AP French Language?</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>I tink a 104 or better on English is a 5.</p>

<p>No one cares about the fickle French...LOL jk, seriously I don't know.</p>

<p>Where do you get this information? Is there a website/reference that someone could direct me to?</p>

<p>APUSH - 2006 Released Exam
All out of 180
106 - 180 = 5
85 - 105 = 4
68 - 84 = 3
47 - 67 = 2
0 - 46 = 1</p>

<p>wow /&lt;/p>

<p>sweet curve on that one.</p>

<p>are you positive?</p>

<p>Some of these are really nice curves.</p>

<p>How about AP Human Geo? </p>

<p>Excuse me if I overlooked anything. Chances are I did =P</p>

<p>Does anyone know anything about the AP Environmental Science?</p>
