Maybe it's early, but I'm curious how I would do on the AP Lit test if I took it today. Is there some sort of score calculator or predictor tool I can use to estimate my score based on my current performance?
While there isn't a formal score calculator for the AP English Literature exam, you can estimate your score in a more informal way using your practice tests.
The AP English Literature exam is scored on a scale of 1-5, with 5 being the highest. The total score is made up of two components: the multiple-choice section (comprising 45% of your score) and the free-response section (comprising 55% of your score).
For the multiple-choice section, you can simply count how many questions you got correct out of the total questions (usually around 55). Free-response questions are a bit trickier to self-grade, but you can look at the scoring guidelines provided by the College Board for past exams and compare your answers to those.
Keep in mind that these are just estimates and actual scoring may vary. A solid understanding of the content and extensive practice are the best ways to prepare for the exam. Don't forget, practice makes perfect!
