Tuned for AP Music Theory.

This AP Music Theory score calculator models both halves with estimated cut scores.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers — written by humans, not a chatbot.
Does this include sight-singing?
Yes. The two sight-singing tasks are part of the free-response half, alongside part-writing, harmonization, and composition. Estimate each against the rubric and enter them so the free-response half is complete.
How do I score the written free-response?
Each task has its own rubric, scored point by point. Add up the points you would realistically earn on part-writing and harmony rather than marking a task all or nothing.
Why does the multiple choice include audio?
Part of the multiple-choice section plays musical examples and asks you to identify what you hear. Those aural questions count the same as the notated ones toward your multiple-choice total.
