How the AP Chemistry exam works

The 2027 AP Chemistry exam is on Thursday 6 May 2027 (afternoon) and lasts 3 hours 15 minutes. Multiple choice: 60 questions in 1 hour 30 minutes (50% of the score). Free response: 7 questions in 1 hour 45 minutes: 3 long (10 points each) and 4 short (4 points each) (50% of the score).

College Board doesn't publish the raw-score cut-offs for each AP score, so tutors track progress with released questions and the official scoring guidelines.
