<p>^ Good question…</p>
<p>@geobro10 this is correct. There is no way in hell they would ever just not count a question they gave during the administration, people would be complaining into the next decade</p>
<p>Now I’m scared that I got a 3. :/</p>
<p>Can someone explain why the percentage of 4s and 5s dropped so significantly from previous years? I know it’s a new exam, but an 8% drop in 5s, 5% drop in 4s, and 10% rise in 2s seem too much.</p>
<p>@eddychiang The CollegeBoard is trying to make a 5 the new “gold standard”. They want a 5 to really represent achievement and academic success, so they are making it much more difficult to attain.</p>
<p>Does anybody know the cutoff for 5s and 4s?</p>
<p>@1517brancy according to this guy (not sure how reliable he is, but AP Trevor does follow him, so I’m guessing he’s decently reliable) for 5s it’s 72% and for 4s it’s 58%

<p>So APTrevor says the cutoff for FRQs is 31 to get a 5… But there was also MC. So what do you have to get in MC to get a 5? </p>
<p>@Nerdygirl99 the score is a composite</p>
<p>Hey guys, those of you who took the may 5th original test date exam, did you guys have these questions for your free response section: <a href=“http://media.collegeboard.com/digitalServices/pdf/ap/ap14_frq_chemisty.pdf”>http://media.collegeboard.com/digitalServices/pdf/ap/ap14_frq_chemisty.pdf</a> ? I didn’t have all of those. I’m pretty sure I had one on orgo for the first question (it had a large chart of 4 molecules on the first page), and I also had one of calorimetry for one and also an electrochem one. There are calorimetry and electrochem q’s in this but they don’t look familiar. Also, I’m pretty sure I didn’t have question 3…</p>
<p>@predent I had different questions too. I took a different form since I’m overseas. </p>
<p>@wcao9311 I know it’s composite, but I guess I’m trying to figure out “the system” if you know what I mean. </p>
<p>So I guess I’m really asking how many total points were on the exam. </p>
<p>I thought there would be 106 points(now 102 with the exclusion of the last question), but it seems there are only 92 because of what APTrevor said about MC being 50 points… So ya. Confused. </p>
<p>So, when they say you need a 31 on the frq’s to get a 5, does this mean that if you got below this, there is no way you could get a 5, even if you were one of the students that got a 100% on the multiple choice?</p>
<p>Is there any news on when scores will be released?</p>
<p>The early window starts july 5th</p>
<p>@chemsucks it depends on your location, it can be as early as july 5th, the schedule is here: <a href=“View Your AP Scores – AP Students | College Board”>View Your AP Scores – AP Students | College Board;
<p>@predent That was my exact FRQ. I’m not sure, but I think it was Form O.</p>
<p>@theskittlebug Yep, it was Form O. I had it as well.</p>
<p>Anyone know when frq scoring guidelines come out?</p>
<p>has anyone here gotten their score yet? I know that some people who released their scores to colleges have seen them already. I’m curious to know what you guys got! Not to mention nervous to see my own score… :-S </p>
