AP US History released exams

Does anyone know where I can find released AP US History exams or practice tests? I want to practice with real exam questions before the actual test.

You're on the right track by looking for released AP US History exams to practice with authentic questions. Unfortunately, the College Board does not make full released exams publicly available for AP US History. However, there are still some resources you can use to get a feel for the actual test.

1. College Board AP Classroom: If your school uses the College Board's AP Classroom platform, your teacher can assign you practice questions, quizzes, and assessments based on official AP content. These questions are created by College Board and closely resemble those on the actual exam. Speak with your AP US History teacher to see if they can provide you with access to this platform.

2. College Board AP US History Course and Exam Description: This document includes a detailed outline of the course content, skills, and exam format. Furthermore, it features practice multiple-choice, short answer, and essay questions. You can access the Course and Exam Description on the College Board website. While it may not be a full-length practice test, it will still provide valuable practice with official questions.

3. Released Free-Response Questions: The College Board releases the free-response questions from the most recent AP exams for all subjects, including AP US History. You can find these on the College Board's AP Students website. These questions will give you a good idea of what to expect on the free-response section of the exam.

While it's unfortunate that full released AP US History exams are not publicly available, utilizing the resources mentioned above will still give you valuable practice with official questions and help you become familiar with the format of the exam. Additionally, you may want to consider using reputable third-party test prep books and resources for further practice, although the questions may not be as authentic as those from the College Board. Good luck with your preparations!
