- Score 1< 40%
Bands are general estimates, not official cut scores.
Examples
MC 28/40 · FR 20/32 · 50/50 weights
Composite ≈ 66% · score 4
MC 35/40 · FR 28/32
Composite ≈ 87% · score 5
MC 20/40 · FR 14/32
Composite ≈ 47% · score 2
How it works
Each section converts to a percentage, then combines with the weights you provide into a composite percentage. The composite maps to an AP score using estimated bands.
Composite · Σ (section% × weight) / Σ weight
AP score bands · 5 ≥ 70%, 4 ≥ 60%, 3 ≥ 50%, 2 ≥ 40%, 1 below

Frequently asked questions
AP Statistics has 40 multiple-choice questions and six free-response questions (five short and one investigative task). The two sections are weighted 50/50 by default, summed into a composite percentage, and mapped to a 1 to 5 AP score using cut points set each year.
Free response is six questions: five short FRQs scored on a 0 to 4 scale (20 points total) plus one investigative task scored on a 0 to 12 scale, for a typical maximum near 32 raw points before scaling. The calculator uses 32 as the default; adjust if your practice exam differs.
The College Board sets cut scores each year after equating raw scores across exam forms. Published examiner statistics suggest typical bands around 70% for a 5, 60% for a 4, 50% for a 3, and 40% for a 2 on the composite percentage scale. Actual cut scores vary.
No. Independent unofficial estimator. The only authoritative AP Statistics score is the one the College Board sends in July.
