what does it take to get a 5 on AP US

<p>I was just wondering if anyone new about how many(minimum) correctly answered questions on the multiple choice section of the AP U.S. History test it would take to get a five on the exam? Thanks</p>

<p>Assuming you got a perfect free response:</p>

<p>24 correct, 56 omit
OR
33 correct, 47 wrong</p>

<p>However, perfect free responses are exceedingly rare, and even a couple points off on an essay or DBQ can really bring your grade down.</p>

<p>Would 70/80 Mc and 6/7s on the Free Response be a 5?</p>

<p>darkruler: I'm almost positive that would be a 5.</p>

<p>u really think that that few correct can lead to a five ?? I thought that about 60 correct would be what one needed to get a five. Let's say that i answered 65 of the mc correctly, and did average on the free response questions, do u think that that would be a 5 as well?</p>

<p>it takes motivation and determination</p>

<p>You have to consider that the free response is a whopping 50% of the grade. I was assuming perfect free response. </p>

<p>Let's see, by average, I'll assume 4-5 on the essays and a 10/15 on the DBQ:</p>

<p>With average free response, you'll need about 60 MC right (rest wrong) for a extremely low 5.</p>
