About this data
Source: College Board’s published AP Exam score distributions (2002–2026), to a tenth of a percent. Exam views use College Board’s published mean, standard deviation, and test-taker count when available. A missing mean is computed from the published 1–5 percentages and labelled as computed; other missing statistics are labelled Not published. An exam with a blank year (e.g. Precalculus before 2024) had not yet launched. 2026is the latest year College Board has published. Dataset version 2026.5.
