Past AP Calculus AB Scores

Past AP Calculus AB Scores

Your AP Calculus AB Score is reported on a 5-point scale as follows:
5 = extremely well qualified
4 = well qualified
3 = qualified
2 = possibly qualified
1 = no recommendation

"Qualified" means that you have proven yourself capable of doing the work of an introductory-level Calculus course at college.

Many colleges and universities grant credit and placement for scores of 3, 4 or 5; however, each college decides which scores it will accept. In order to be considered for credit or placement, you must send your official AP score report to the college you're planning to attend.
