If you are serious about passing the APUSH Exam on May 8, 2026 LEARN and MEMORIZE the APUSH Writing Rubrics. This week we watched Heimler's video about the Document Based Question. He breaks it down so well! If you have not taken notes over the video you can watch it here, and you will turn it in on Friday the 19th.
The DBQ is out of 7 points. If you want to pass shoot for a 4/7. If you want to make a 4 or 5 make a 6 or 7 on the DBQ. If you are overwhelmed that is ok! We will be practicing these skills all year.
It will feel like you are writing like this - fast and furious. But College Board knows you have an hour to write. So they are expecting a rough draft!
DBQ Rubric - 7 Points
Thesis - 1 Point
Context - 1 Point
Evidence - 3 Points
-Describe 3 Documents - 1 Point
- Summarize 4 Documents - 2 Points
- Evidence Beyond Documents - 1 Point
