starstarstarstarstar

I did not study at all for APUSH on my own. I only did the multiple choice knowt offers for a week straight and got a 5. without this app I would've gotten a 2 😭🙏

100% worth downloading

starstarstarstarstar

OH MY GOD THIS JS THE MOST USEFUL APP EVER. when i was studying for my ap test it was so useful to be able to have it auto grade frq's and give unique mcq's cause the college board ones are so repetitive.

I love it

starstarstarstarstar

My favorite part about this app is the practice multiple choice tests. Not only are you able to customize the tests to include specific units and material, but you're also able to see why an answer is correct or incorrect.

What are some tips for AP Psychology free response questions?
Before you start writing out your response, take a few minutes to outline the key points you want to make sure to touch on. This may seem like a waste of time, but it’s very helpful in making sure your response effectively addresses all the parts of the question.

How do I answer AP Psychology free-response questions?
Answering AP Psychology free response questions the right way is all about practice! As you go through the AP AP Psychology Free Response Room, treat it like a real exam and approach it this way so you stay calm during the actual exam. When you first see the question, take some time to process exactly what it’s asking. Make sure to also read through all the sub-parts in the question and re-read the main prompt, making sure to circle and underline any key information. This will help you allocate your time properly and also make sure you are hitting all the parts of the question. Before you answer each question, note down the key points you want to hit and evidence you want to use (where applicable). Once you have the skeleton of your response, writing it out will be quick, plus you won’t make any silly mistake in a rush and forget something important.
