<p>I did SAT but none of the APs. I have a very curious question (I know it’s random… nevertheless…) Is it harder to achieve >750 in SAT CR or a 5 in some APs, like AP history, government, etc. ?</p>
<p>statistically, getting a 5 is “easier” than getting in the 750+ range. but AP and SAT are different entities. You’re trying to compare aptitude testing with achievement testing (In completely separate subjects at that!)</p>
<p>I got a CR of 76 (equal to 760) on my sophomore PSAT, but I only got a 4 in my freshman year AP (which was Human Geo).
I’m a perfect example that yes, it’s easier to get a 750+ on CR than a 5.</p>

<p>No, you’re an example that some people do better on CR than AP Human Geography. That’s about all you can take from that.</p>
<p>^ Then how can we possibly answer the OP’s question?</p>

<p>It’s not possible to answer OP’s question because he’s comparing apples to oranges. The SAT is an aptitude test that is highly correlated to IQ; in other words it’s mostly a measure of innate intelligence. Conversely, AP tests are tests of specific knowledge, and one can’t score well on an AP test without preparing for it beforehand.</p>
<p>^Exactly, it’s a silly question. Unless he just wants straight proportions or anecdotal evidence, we can’t answer his question.</p>
<p>Now if you compared the AP English exam to the SAT CR, then we’d be talking.</p>
<p>For everybody’s info- I’m not an idiot I knew this was a pointless comparison. I was exaggerating when I said I was a perfect example. I don’t think it showed though, and i can’t stand when people don’t get my sarcasm.</p>
<p>Sarcasm rarely translates well into text.</p>
<p>Also, if you were exaggerating when you said that, why did you say this:
