How This Works
This test is scored out of 90 raw points — the same scale the real AP Exam uses to decide who earns a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. Every year, the College Board sets cutoff scores that define the boundary between each AP band. We use fixed cutoffs modeled on those real score distributions to grade this test the same way the exam grades you.
Here's the part that matters: you will never score lower than a 50% on the adjusted scale, even if you land at the very bottom of the AP-1 band. A 50% is the "zero" of this curve — the floor, not a failing grade. From there, every point you earn stretches upward: the bottom of each AP band converts to the bottom of its matching 10-point slice of the 50–100 scale, and a perfect 90/90 converts to a full 100%.
Within a band, your adjusted score is interpolated proportionally — scoring halfway between the low and high cutoff of a band gets you halfway between that band's converted range. Climbing from a low 4 to a high 4 moves your adjusted score the same way climbing from a low 2 to a high 2 does. No part of the scale is worth more than any other.
