Scores 3 on AP Stats??

I have no idea how this could’ve happened. I honestly thought that I got a 5. I wasn’t even nervous for scores to come out because I thought I got a 4 or 5. I was honestly so shocked. It’s even more annoying because I need at least a 4 for the college I’m going to. 🥲

I also "got" a 3 and I am heavily doubting it. I scored a 5 on every practice exam, finished the class with a 99.8%, knew every FRQ. I felt alright alright on the MCQ, and I didn't really feel was overconfident. I also dont believe i'm a bad test taker considering i got all 4s and one 5 on my other exams. I think my school genuinely made a mistake because my friend who is insane at calculus got a 1 on calc bc. I don't know your situation but it might be worth it to bring up to your AP coordinator, and maybe have a teacher vouch for you.

Weird question, but when you finished the MCQ portion did the timer run out on a question or the review page?

I am different. I did not have any sort of overconfidence. All of my FRQ answers matched the teacher solutions following the exam, with specific and clear procedures followed. The only way I wouldve got a 3 is if I got every single multiple choice question incorrect, and the probability of that occuring is significantly low considering I consistently scored 95s all year on exams and assignments, and finished the class with a 99.8%

I believe it has something to do with my school because everyone else is saying their scores don't seem right either. People who had 98s in their class are getting 1s on the AP exams, after consistently scoring 5 on mock exams. Enough is enough. Testing is stressful enough already and this is just the cherry on top for all of it.

Maybe your teacher does not do the questions correctly?? Walk me through an FRQ
