Scoring
For each correct answer, you receive one point.
For questions you omit, you receive no points.
For a wrong answer to a multiple-choice question, you lose one-fourth of
a point.
If you can eliminate one or more of the answer choices as wrong,
you increase your chances of choosing the correct answer and
earning one point.
If you cant eliminate any choice, move on. You can return to the
question later if there is time.
For a wrong answer to a student-produced response (grid-in) math
question, you dont lose any points.
Multiple-choice and student-produced response questions are machine
scored.
The essay is scored on a 1 to 6 scale by two different readers. The total
essay score is the sum of the two readers scores.
Off-topic essays, blank essays, and essays written in ink will receive a
score of zero.
If your essay does not reflect your original and individual work, your test
scores may be canceled.
The passages for this test have been adapted from published material.
The ideas contained in them do not necessarily represent the opinions of the College Board.
You must use a No. 2 pencil. Do not use a mechanical pencil. It is very important
that you fill in the entire circle darkly and completely. If you change your response, erase
as completely as possible. Incomplete marks or erasures may affect your score. It is
very important that you follow these instructions when filling out your answer sheet.
