How we convert raw points to scaled scores
- Multiple‑choice (40 questions) counts for 50 % of the composite; FRQ (4 questions) counts for 50 %.
- Each MCQ worth 1 point; FRQ questions scored out of 12 points each (48 total).
- Composite out of 88 mapped to the 5‑point scale; cut‑offs based on 2024 distribution.
2025 raw‑score → scaled‑score chart (estimate)

|---|---|
| 67 – 100 | 5 |
| 54 – 66 | 4 |
| 42 – 53 | 3 |
| 31 – 41 | 2 |
| 0 – 30 | 1 |
Cut‑offs based on first‑year AP Precalculus score reports (2024) and subject to change.

- Use graphing calculator efficiently: table view, n‑solve and regression tools.
- Time practice: MCQ ≤45 min, FRQ ≤90 min with pacing for each sub‑part.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is AP Precalculus harder than Pre‑Calc in school?
AP Precalculus covers similar algebraic topics but with College Board‑style FRQs and tighter pacing.
Does a high BC score guarantee a high Precalculus score?
Students strong in BC content often excel, but Precalculus focuses on modeling and functions—skills still need practice.
Is guessing penalized?
No. Answer every MCQ—no wrong‑answer penalty.
