How to use it
Start with a timed practice exam or a teacher-scored practice set. Put your Section I multiple-choice correct count in the MCQ field, from 0 to 60. Then enter each free-response score from 0 to 7: FRQ 1 for the no-stimulus prompt, FRQ 2 for the one-stimulus prompt, and FRQ 3 for the two-stimulus prompt.
Target score
Use the target selector when you want to check how far you are from an estimated 3, 4, or 5. You will see whether your current practice score is already in that estimated range or how many composite points may still be needed.

Scoring model
Enter scores from the AP Human Geography format: 60 MCQs, three FRQs, and equal weighting between multiple choice and free response. Your raw MCQ side is scaled to half of the result, and your FRQ raw total is scaled to the other half.
Composite
Because public calculators use different composite scales, you get a simple 0-100 result first plus a compact 0-120 equivalent in the formula trace.
FRQ weight
AP Human Geography has only 21 raw FRQ points, but the section is worth 50% of the exam score. One FRQ rubric point can move the estimate more than one extra multiple-choice question.

Limits
AP score distributions tell you how students performed in a given year, but they do not publish a guaranteed raw-score cutoff for your future exam. Use distribution data as context only. The AP HUG score calculator uses estimated ranges so you can plan, compare practice attempts, and build a cushion away from the next cutoff.
Unofficial estimate
Do not treat this as an official College Board score report or AP Classroom result. It cannot tell you what score will appear on your official report or whether a college will grant credit.

FAQ
No. Use this as an unofficial practice estimate only. GradeCal is not affiliated with or endorsed by the College Board, and your official AP score report is the final authority.
The calculator follows the current AP Human Geography format: 60 multiple-choice questions worth 50% of the exam score and three free-response questions worth 50%. FRQ 1 has no stimulus, FRQ 2 has one stimulus, and FRQ 3 has two stimuli.
Your MCQ correct count and FRQ raw points each carry half of the estimate. MCQs scale to 50 points on the main 0-100 view, and the three FRQs add to 21 raw points before scaling to the other 50 points.
There are fewer FRQ raw points than MCQ questions, but the FRQ section still carries half of the exam weight. One extra FRQ rubric point can move the scaled result more than one extra MCQ correct answer, especially near a cutoff.
No. AP Human Geography score distribution data shows the percentage of students who earned each AP score in a past year. It does not publish a fixed raw-score cutoff for your future exam. Treat score bands on this page as unofficial planning ranges.
No calculator can guarantee your exact future AP score. Use the estimate for practice planning, target setting, and spotting weak sections, while remembering that official scoring can vary by administration.
