Hey fellow AP Lit students! I'm interested in trying out some past AP Lit exams to test my skills. Where can I find these exams to practice with? Thanks!
Hey there! Practicing with past AP Literature exams is a great way to prepare. You can find a variety of past exams and their respective questions directly on the College Board's website. They have a section dedicated to AP English Literature and Composition where they provide free-response questions from previous years. You can access these questions by visiting the following link: https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/courses/ap-english-literature-and-composition/free-response-questions-by-year
Additionally, you can check out College Board's AP Classroom platform, which is available to all students enrolled in an AP course. AP Classroom offers a range of practice materials, including personal progress checks and formative assessments. You can access it by logging into your College Board account and selecting AP Classroom from the dashboard.
Lastly, consider looking for AP Literature review books, such as those from The Princeton Review or Barron's. These books often include practice exams and tips for responding to the free-response questions. You can find these books in bookstores, online retailers like Amazon, or even check them out from your local library.
Finally, while not a full practice test, CollegeVine's blog contains a comprehensive overview of the AP Literature exam, and includes some practice questions. You can find the post here: https://blog.collegevine.com/ultimate-guide-to-the-english-literature-and-composition-ap-exam/. This resource could be an excellent complement to the practice tests you find through the sources listed above.
Best of luck with your AP Lit preparations!
