What is the average score on ap lit exam?

There's no single "average" AP Literature score that's consistently published. The College Board doesn't release a simple average score. Instead, they release data showing the percentage of students who score in each of the five score ranges (1-5). These percentages vary from year to year.

To get an idea of the general performance, you would need to look at the score distributions released by the College Board for recent years. You'll find that a significant portion of students score in the 2-4 range, with fewer students achieving a 1 or a 5. Therefore, while a precise average can't be stated, it would likely fall somewhere in the 2-3 range, but this is an approximation based on historical trends.
