<p>I got a 2 on AP Statistics when I walked out expecting at least a 4. I had an alternative version for the FRQs to mostly everyone else. My FRQ version isn’t even on the CB website. I really feel like my FRQ subscore wasn’t calculated into my overall score.</p>
<p>I received a 3 on my AP Chem test, but I received constant 4’s on my practice exams and I was confident on the MC (I had extra time to double check my math and reread problems). I’m starting college in a month, I was wondering if I should re-score it because if I get a 4 I would be able to get credit for a higher level chemistry.</p>
<p>@TheCheeseMan </p>
<p>Thanx for the help and good luck for your rescore. Could you please tell whether your score changed or not as soon a you get the info. Once again good luck…</p>
<p>Oh and btw is it possible that they did not count my MC</p>
<p>Yeah I think it’s possible they could’ve left out one or the other</p>
<p>I’m perfectly happy with my 4 on the AP world exam. However, if previous scantron testing results for me hold testament, when I erase answers the scantron will always count it as a double answer and mark it wrong. During the test I didn’t see one of the MC questions and didn’t notice I skipped it until about 13 questions later. These were all pretty easy questions in my opinion. I’m doing some more college searching and some of the ones I’m looking into would only accept a 5 for credit. Would this known source of miscoring be enough to justify a rescore?</p>
<p>For the AP Lang exam I received a 1!!! Yess a 1. I think this is impossible because at the beginning of the school year I scored a 2 on a practice exam that was sent out to be graded by professionals. Since then I actually improved as a student. I got 6s and 7s on most of the essays i wrote and I would get more than half correct on the multiple choice. So How did I get a 1? People who slept during the whole exam got 1s and I wrote 3 solid essays and I know I got at least half correct on the multiple choice. The thing that gets me more mad is that classmates that I do better than got 3s on the exam, and I get a 1??? Even my teacher was surprised because I was one of her best students. she thought I would at least get a 4 If I wrote how i did in class, which i did. I’m so depressed and stressed out because I never knew that this could happen to me. I know I should have passed with at least a 3, but if i got a 2 I would understand but a 1?? Is there anything I can do? I certain that I did not score a 1. I walked out of the test room confident that I passed.</p>
<p>joeycruzy101 totally get you. I’d rescore and check whether or not they lost the booklet. I’ve e-mailed them for the same reasons - still waiting for a reply.</p>
<p>How long ago was the mock exam? If it was early in the year, and you are as confident as you sound I would definitely go ahead and ask for a rescore.</p>
<p>Ya, I took the ap physics c and calc bc test. I am way better at calc than physics. But I scored a 1 on both my bc and ab subscore. I thought I did good on the test. I received a 2 on my physics test and I guessed on probably 3/4 of that test. My calc teacher and I were expecting atleast a 3 on the bc part. Anyways, do you guys think I should do the rescore?</p>
<p>So I e-mailed AP Services about my score in AP World (a 3) and asked if they could have forgotten to add something together or misgraded something since there were 2 answer forms this year and I got this -</p>
<p>Thank you for contacting AP Services.
We could not have given a score for your AP exam unless we had both parts of your exam.
Total scores on the multiple-choice section are based on the number of questions answered correctly. Points are not deducted for incorrect answers and no points will be awarded for unanswered questions.
- The multiple-choice section is scored by computer. Each answer sheet is scanned and the total multiple-choice score equals the number of correct responses.
- The free-response section is scored at the annual AP Reading held during the first two weeks in June. Specially appointed college professors and experienced AP teachers evaluate free-response answers.
- The total scores from the free-response section and the multiple-choice section are combined to form a composite score. AP Exam scores are reported on a 5-point scale.
The process of score settingestablishing the AP score boundaries (determining how many composite score points equals what AP score)takes place immediately after the Reading.
Information about the score setting process is on the web at: <a href=“College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools”>College Board - SAT, AP, College Search and Admission Tools;

<p>Yeah the first sentence clearly states that they needed to have both parts to get a score, but most of the rescore successes were usually the fact that Collegeboard forgot to add something/lost something. Hmm any thoughts?</p>
<p>Wow, a typical answer huh? I agree that most rescore stories start with the fact that CB lost the FR booklet. Honestly, CB is getting sketchier by the minute :/</p>
<p>@typeakid </p>
<p>No, that doesn’t warrant a rescoring because then they would have to alter your answer sheet which is probably not allowed</p>
<p>Hold on, for anyone who knows of a successful rescore, did the rescore fee get refunded? I think that’s sooooo stupid if the collegeboard screws up something and you end up having to pay for it.</p>
<p>I believe they refund you if it was their mistake</p>
<p>So, is it possible for us to email the people, without using money if they messed up or something?</p>
<p>@Rider43 - It probably would be better to contact College Board and ask directly.</p>
<p>After a frustrating process involving a fax, two emails, and three phone calls, I have learned that College Board does not give rescore services for AP Japanese and AP Chinese. Frankly I don’t understand why. The tests themselves may be done on entirely on the computer, but the free response AND the multiple choice are both graded by HUMANS, so the actual possibility of a grading error are that much higher.</p>
<p>I also asked about requesting my test and answers, and they ‘can’ only send back my FRQ, so there is absolutely no way for me to even verify MYSELF that I actually deserved the 3 that College Board gave, even though I walked out of the test room feeling like I got a 5.</p>
<p>To anyone requesting a rescore, I wish you the best of luck and hope you have a better temper than I do. I am completely done with College Board. Who knew as a high school graduate that I’d have to end up dealing with this company in the middle of summer, two months before I leave for college. I also recommend that you CALL instead of email them when confirming the receipt of your rescore request.</p>
<p>I doubt anyone cares, but I just wanted to correct a mistake:</p>
<p>After another long and grueling phone call, I was informed that the MC section of AP Chinese and Japanese are graded by the computer, and that the FRQ section is graded by actual readers.</p>
<p>I was also informed that CollegeBoard will be implementing this test taking method for AP Japanese and Chinese into other foreign languages in the near future. Best of luck.</p>
<p>myap2013 are they reasonable when you call them? I’ve been thinking about calling since they haven’t been replying to my e-mails -_-</p>
<p>Icespice: they’re alright. I only got frustrated because different CB people told me different answers, so just be sure to ask them to make sure that everything they’re telling you is correct. Do not leave any details out–which AP test, etc. Good luck!</p>
