<p>If i had taken this class last year I would be asking about a 5, but I'm a senior now and I'm low balling it. </p>
<p>Anyone know the percentage?</p>
<p>On the AP exam, the multiple-choice section is composed of 100 questions worth 66 2/3 percent of your grade.</p>
<p>The free-response section constitutes 33 1/3 percent of your final grade.</p>
<p>Play around with the numbers and see what you come up with.</p>
<p>For Instance:
Multiple Choice: 73 right 12 wrong</p>
<pre><code> 76 - (0.25 x 12) = 73
</code></pre>
<p>Essay 1: 7 out of 10 points
Essay 2: 6 out of 8 points</p>
<pre><code> (7 x 2.5) + (6 x 3.125) = 36.25
</code></pre>
<p>Composite Score = (73 + 36.25 = 109.25) Which is according to the chart below is a score of [5]</p>
<p>Composite Scores [ Grade]</p>
<p>96-150 [5]</p>
<p>74-95 [4]</p>
<p>55-73 [3]</p>
<p>36-54 [2]</p>
<p>Anything Lower [1]</p>
<p>Everything here is approximated since it can vary from year to year based on the curve and yaddy yadda ya. [Source: A few psychology books]</p>
<p>Thanks Scarlett.B. That’s helpful but do you have the numbers that you have to multiply each FRQ by. I know that the number is different depending on how many points each essay is worth but how do you figure out that number?</p>
<p>Wait, so you’re saying that you can be wrong on 51% of the material and get a 4?</p>
<p>this is not right! i don’t know the exact but a 3 is around 51 percent</p>
