Calculadora de Pontuação IB — Formula

## How AP Credits Save Money

Passing AP exams (score 3-5) earns college credits at a fraction of tuition cost.

### Formula

**Credits Earned = Exams Passed x Credits per Exam**

**Net Savings = (Credits x Cost per Credit) - (Exams x Exam Fee)**

### AP Scoring
- 5 = Extremely qualified
- 4 = Well qualified
- 3 = Qualified (minimum for most colleges)
- Most selective colleges require 4 or 5

Exemplo Resolvido

5 AP exams passed at 3 credits each, college charges $500/credit.

  1. Credits earned = 5 x 3 = 15
  2. Tuition equivalent = 15 x $500 = $7,500
  3. Exam costs = 5 x $98 = $490
  4. Net savings = $7,500 - $490 = $7,010
