- Strategies for boosting your performance in each section
Understanding the AP Calculus BC Exam
AP Calculus BC covers the full AP Calculus AB curriculum plus additional advanced topics, including parametric, polar, and vector functions; series; and more challenging applications of integration.
The exam is split into two main sections:
Section I – Multiple Choice (50% of score)
- Part A: 30 questions in 60 minutes (calculator not permitted)
- Part B: 15 questions in 45 minutes (calculator permitted)
Section II – Free Response (50% of score)
- Part A: 2 questions in 30 minutes (calculator permitted)
- Part B: 4 questions in 60 minutes (calculator not permitted)
How the AP Calculus BC Exam is Scored
- Multiple Choice – 50% of score
- Free Response – 50% of score
Raw points from each section are converted to a composite score, which is then mapped to the AP 1–5 scale:
- 5 = Extremely Well Qualified
- 4 = Well Qualified
- 3 = Qualified
- 2 = Possibly Qualified
- 1 = No Recommendation
Scoring also includes a Calculus AB subscore for students taking both BC and AB topics, which is reported separately.
