Estimate your AP exam score (1–5)

Pick an AP subject, enter multiple-choice correct and free-response points (or a composite), and get an estimated College Board–style score from 1 to 5 — plus how close you are to the next band.

Subject-aware approximate curves

Each exam uses typical MC/FRQ weights and composite cutoffs for study planning. Official curves change by year and form, so treat results as estimates.

Custom cutoff mode

Working from a practice key or teacher curve? Choose Custom and set your own minimum composites for scores 5, 4, 3, and 2.

College credit context

Many colleges grant credit for scores of 3+, with selective schools often wanting 4 or 5. Always check each college’s AP credit policy.

It weights your multiple-choice and free-response performance into a 0–100 composite using typical exam weights, then maps that composite to an estimated AP score of 1–5 with subject-specific cutoffs.

No. College Board does not publish a single permanent conversion table for every form. CalcGen uses approximate study curves so you can gauge practice-test performance.

Popular exams including Calculus AB/BC, Statistics, Physics 1, Chemistry, Biology, CSA, English Lang/Lit, U.S./World/European History, Government, Psychology, Macro/Micro, Environmental Science, Human Geography, plus a custom option.

Switch to Composite mode and enter a 0–100 composite directly. The calculator still applies the selected exam’s cutoffs (or your custom cutoffs).

Policies vary. A 3 is often the minimum for credit at many public universities; competitive colleges may require a 4 or 5, and some grant no credit for certain subjects.

Practice curves differ by source and year. Small cutoff differences can move borderline composites between adjacent AP scores.
