The level of knowledge required for an AP test is not acquired without rigorous preparation. As a result, it is best to take AP subject preparation seriously and over a long period of time. The benefits of high AP scores (4 or 5) are many: greater chances of admission, college credits and competitive subject knowledge that befits college level work.
AP Course Preparation Dubai
The AP tests are designed to test students a number of academic areas – Arts, English, History and Social Studies, Math and Computer Science, Sciences, World language and Cultures. The purpose behind these tests is to assess the academic potential of the student for college-level courses. As such, the APs require rigorous training and preparation and once that is done, test-takers are well informed about the subject of study.
Each AP test is scored on a range of 1 to 5, with each score signifying a particular level of academic efficiency.
- 5: Extremely Well Qualified.
- 4: Well Qualified.
- 3: Qualified.
- 2: Possibly Qualified.
- 1: No recommendation.
- These scores from 1-5 are scaled scores calculated from raw scores (number of questions correct in the exam).
- A score above or equal to 3 is considered Pass. However, different colleges have different admission eligibility standards and so the score of the AP that can earn a credit varies.
- There are no deductions for incorrect or blank answers, so your multiple -choice raw score is simply the number of questions you get correct.

Quick Enquiry
“My seniors at school recommended Option to me. They all had done well on the SAT and were very appreciative of the trainers. I too had a great experience; the materials, training tools, content and lecture plans are very well structured and allowed me to work on my skills and weaknesses. I was able to improve my score by 420 points!!! Thanks Option!”
Student
“I am very pleased to write a testimonial for Option. Great client interface, wonderful trainers and very smart service. As a parent, I was responsible for finding the right platform for my children and I found it at Option.”
Parent“Option clearly is an amazing experience. Unable to help our son with the SAT prep, my wife and I decided to select a training institute that offered flexible class schedules and provided professional training. I was impressed by the facilities at Option and after talking to a few acquaintances whose children had trained for SAT, we zeroed down on Option. The result was our son’s outstanding performance! ”
Parent“My trainers worked really hard with me initially in order to bring me up to a certain competitive level. Once they had achieved that, they reinvented the class plan to make it more rigorous and in the process pushed me beyond my expectations to achieve really high scores. The one-to-one course I opted for was outstanding and my very high scores on the SAT and Subject SATs secured me admission to 4 schools in the US.”
Student"Option is a committed institute that makes every effort and puts in the hours required to ensure that students are well prepared to take the SAT exam. Our experience with Options has been rewarding; we were especially grateful for the additional hours put in by the teachers to ensure that concepts were not just clear, but thoroughly understood.”
