AP Biology on Savad. The AP Biology paper, unit by unit, scored 1–5.

AP Biology is its own AP subject, with the 8 units of the College Board CED and the six science practices built in. Multiple choice marks itself; you mark the six free-response questions against their rubric points and the 1–5 score follows.
