Limits and Important Notes
How the AP World Score Predictor Works
Raw points are divided by possible points within each section, then multiplied by that section's published weight.
The four contributions total a composite percentage used with editable planning cutoffs.
Formula
Composite = MCQ% × 0.40 + SAQ% × 0.20 + DBQ% × 0.25 + LEQ% × 0.15
Example
Scores of 42/55, 7/9, 5/7, and 4/6 produce a weighted composite of about 73.72%.
- The score prediction is unofficial and cannot reproduce secure College Board scoring.
- Current default planning cutoffs are 5 ≥ 75%, 4 ≥ 60%, 3 ≥ 45%, and 2 ≥ 30%. They are estimates and can be adjusted in Advanced scoring settings.
- History SAQ and LEQ updates begin with the May 2027 exam; use the possible points shown by your current materials.
- DBQ and LEQ points depend on accurate rubric application.
