Yo, so I'm starting to prep for my AP Psyche exam and I've got a question for y'all - how many questions are on the AP Psychology exam? Just trying to get a sense of what I’m diving into and to figure out if I need to up my game on practice questions!
Hey there! Great to hear you're starting your prep for the AP Psychology exam—getting a head start is always a good move. The exam consists of two sections. The first section has 100 multiple-choice questions that you'll need to complete in 70 minutes. This section accounts for two-thirds of your score. The second section consists of two free-response questions, and you'll have 50 minutes to complete this part. This section constitutes the remaining one-third of your score. So in total, you're looking at 102 questions. For multiple-choice practice, it's wise to regularly test yourself with questions to get familiar with the format and types of content you'll encounter. And don't forget to practice free-response questions as well; they help you sharpen your ability to articulate your thoughts coherently and nails down the concepts. Good luck with your studying!
