AP BIO: how do you figure out your score?
Does anyone have the official CB version on how to determine your score? Like what's the cutoff for a 5?

Cut-off for 5 in both bio and chem is approx 60%. CB never officially releases it. It varies year to year.

Does this mean I can get a 60% on MC and 6/10 average on all the questions on the writing section and still a 5?

That's variable, because that could give you a upper end 4 or a lower end 5, since the cutoff varies every year.

What's the equation to find your raw score? I know the 120 questions one but I don't know the 100 one. And how many questions are on it anyway? 100 or 120?

what ? in the PR book it says you should answer 85 MC to score a 4, given that you might get a few wrong, and basically it says you can leave 10-15 blank???

and the free response it says nothing, like how much out of the 40 pts is a 4/5??
