But it's worth a reminder, at this time of year, that the exam score is only one measure of the experience. I always enjoy scanning questions that even students who earn a 1 tend to get right, unlike most of us adults. AP Environmental Science has an indisputable value/relevance.
A few other hypotheses from teachers about why AP Env Sci scores are generally lower than other subjects': students not taking standard pre-req high school Bio & Chem classes first; not focusing on the mathematics in a college-level environmental science class; too much content.
The reason there aren’t more 5s on AP Environmental Science: strong performance on multiple-choice, but generally weak performance on the open-ended questions. Here are the averages this year. FRQ1: 4/10 pts; FRQ2: 3/10 pts; FRQ3: 5/10 pts; FRQ4: 3/10 pts. spr.ly/6010DY6jj
The 2018 AP Environmental Science scores: 5: 8.5%; 4: 23.9%; 3: 15.1%; 2: 26.1%; 1: 26.4%. Overall, this is a slight decline in student performance from 2017.
AP Environmental Science students generally performed quite well on the multiple-choice questions, especially those about “the living world.” The topic that had the lowest multiple-choice performance was pollution.
AP Environmental Science FRQ2 on wind energy was by far the most challenging task on this year’s exam; 20% of students scored 0/10 points on it: spr.ly/6011DY6kl

2017 AP Environmental Science scores 5: 9.4%; 4: 24.5%; 3: 15.5%; 2: 24.6%; 1: 26%. These may shift slightly as late exams are scored.
