What is a good AP® French Language score?
Receiving a 3, 4, or 5 is generally accepted as scoring well on an AP® exam. According to the College Board, a 3 is ‘qualified,’ a 4 is ‘well qualified,’ and a 5 is ‘extremely well qualified.’ Depending on the school you plan to attend, college credits are often offered for scores of 3 or above. To review the AP® Credit Policy for schools you’re considering, use the College Board’s search tool.
When evaluating your performance on the AP® French Language Exam, consider the subject matter and your performance versus your peers’. According to the latest 2024 AP® French Language score distribution report, 72.3% of total students passed, with a 3 or higher.
What is the average AP® French Language score?
The average AP® French Language scores differ yearly due to factors such as a new student population and revision of exams(the most recent change happened in Fall 2011). The College Board typically attempts to maintain consistency in exams for each subject. We can analyze the average AP® French Language score more efficiently by considering a multi-year trend.
Referring to the AP® Student Score Distributions, released by the College Board annually, we can analyze average performance. These reports show us that the mean score in the total group (which includes native speakers) was 3.20 in 2024, 3.21 in 2023, 3.16 in 2022, 3.13 in 2021, and 3.57 in 2020. Calculating the raw average for the prior five years allows us to determine a mean score of 3.25 for AP® French Language in the total group. However, the standard group (excluding native speakers) is slightly less successful on average. The mean score for the standard group in 2024 was 3.03, in 2023 was 3.04, in 2022 was 3.01, 3.01 in 2021, and 3.40 in 2020. So, when we calculate the raw average for the standard group, we come to a mean score of 3.10.
Why are AP® French Language scores curved?
The scores on AP® exams are curved every year by the College Board to preserve consistency and standardize student performance. Courses are essentially college-level subjects; AP® French Language is no exception to this rule. The scoring guidelines emulate the austerity of similar college courses.
