AP scores: What's good, what's not?

Question

Is a 3 good?

Answer 1

Most colleges accept a score of three or above.

Answer 2

Well if you look at it "percentage"-wise, a three out of five is 60%, but that's not how you're graded. A three is considered "good" if you consider a four "great", and a five "awesome".

In terms of the credit you get, MIT only takes a 5 for AP to count as a credit or placement test. Many schools will take 3s, but you should check with your school of choice to see.

A three is "passing" like a C is passing, i would say.

Answer 3

Not really since it's only out of 6.
