| Anyone try those AP diagnostic tests on Sparknotes? I think they're probably too easy, but they make me feel optimistic. I did, like, half the Bio test in yearbook today before I got bored and started going to other sites, and it still have me a 4 when time ran out. Haha. | |

| nns91, whatthe heck ur talking about (32 to 52)?
i think ur score increase b/c u learned from ur mistakes and learned something u were missing.
I did better on my AP Physics B practice exam, getting about 72% correct, while i got 62% right last time. but still, does anybody know how are AP Exams are scored? Is there a chart or something to show how AP scores are distributed?
proleteraiat, thanks for pointing out that to me.lol. | |

| Look at your damn AP prep books or ask your teacher. for Physics B the threshold is around 60% for a 5. For a 4 the threshold is like a 46%. These are 1998 figures, but the percentage tends to hover around the same area. | |

| All the AP tests are graded differently. I still don't understand why people need to know stuff like this. Just do as well as you possibly can. | |

| It actually is important because it alleviates stress in some cases. For instance, I aced the MC on the E and M last year but made a lot of careless mistakes on the FR. However, I was confident that I would get a 5 because I knew the cut-off was around 50%...the rest is history.
BTW, AP English = toughest cutoff. You need around a 75% for a 5. |
