Advanced Placement Exam scores are reported on a scale of 1 to 5, where a 5 is equivalent to grades of A+ and A in the corresponding college course. Joseph received the top score of 5. Only 14.3 percent of the nearly 4 million AP exams taken in 2013 earned this top score. He was also one of only 33 students in the world to earn every point possible on his exam, answering every multiple-choice question correctly and earning the maximum scores on each of the essays in the free-response section of the exam.
