What Are AP Exams?
Super Admin
👑AP Exams are given once a year, in May. AP exams are scored on a scale of 1–5; a passing score on any AP exam is 3 or higher. Multiple choice answers are graded by computer, and only correct answers count—there are no deductions for incorrect or blank answers. For most AP exams, the free-response section is graded by teachers and college professors at the annual AP Reading Conference in June. The multiple choice and free response scores are combined into a single composite scale, for the final score of 1-5.
Students can potentially earn college credit or advanced placement if they achieve a high enough score on an AP exam. You can search the College Board website to learn which colleges honor AP scores.
