What Percent do I Need to Get on the AP World Exam to Get a 5?




xoxo-elena1


For context, I’m a freshman taking AP World History and it’s my first AP class. I’ve seen many different numbers spread online for what percent correlates to what number score which has lead to some confusion. For example, what percent would get me a 5? Or what percent would get me a 4? So on and so forth. If anyone has numbers or even approximations that would be greatly appreciated.

Typically, if you get at least 85% you are going to get a 5 on any AP exam. Many have the cutoff lower. My guess is that for WH, it’s roughly 80-100 = 5, 62-79 = 4.
