LITERAL SAVING GRACE

starstarstarstarstar

Knowt it the ONLY reason i got a 5 on the AP Human Geo exam without them i would have probably gotten a one.

Amazing app!

starstarstarstarstar

The multiple choice practices on here were very similar to those on the exam and they truly helped me. Definitely recommend!

BEST APP EVER

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

This app saved me a lot with AP US History and is the reason I got a 5, and passed my AP precalc exam. Super helpful with flash cards and explanations! : )

Best App for AP Season!!!

starstarstarstarstar

I just got my scores back and I passed all 5 APs because of knowt. Even with cramming last minute. 🥳

knowt literally saved me

starstarstarstarstar

i got a 5!! having the MCQ practice was amazing. the prompts for the written portion were so nice; they were challenging yet easy to understand and were similar to the ones on the test.

i could marry this app

starstarstarstarstar

thought i had no hope in passing my APs but after I downloaded this app not even 15 days before the exam i somehow managed to get a 4 on ap macro?? this app does miracles

saved by ap score

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.

FAQWe thought you might have some questions...
How do I practice for the AP® Test in 2025?
There’s three steps to preparing for the AP Exam : study, practice and review.
  • Study : Start by studying the general concepts from every unit of the AP exam. Look over any material and tests from class this year, and go through the AP study guide for your exam.
  • AP Practice : Acing the exam is all about being able to recall the information quickly on the exam. Make sure to do a few rounds of the AP Practice Exam Room daily to get really good at recalling the concepts.
  • Review : As you practice, make sure to note down the questions you’re messing up and make it a point to go back and review that topic. Focus your AP practice extra hard on those confusing topics.
When do AP exam scores come out in 2025?
AP exam scores for 2025 will be released in mid-July. The College Board releases scores on a staggered schedule over a couple of days, so the exact date will usually vary depending on your location. They typically don't announce the exact dates until closer to July so check the CollegeBoard site for the most up-to-date information
What percent of the AP Exam is multiple-choice?
Most of the AP exam subjects allocate approximately 45% of the test to multiple choice questions. MCQs can be very different from what you’re used to on class tests because the options are designed to trick you. To make sure you are prepared for the AP exam, you can run through the AP Practice Exam room’s multiple choice questions daily.
How do I find practice exams on AP classroom?
If you’re looking for free AP practice exams to prepare for your AP exam, you can practice the multiple choice questions here & practice for the FRQs on the free response room.
Are practice AP exams harder than the real thing?
YES, don’t worry! Most of the AP practice prep books make their practice exams super hard to the point you want to give up. If you’re looking for questions that’ll help you learn the material without throwing you for a loop, I’d recommend trying the AP Practice Exam Room instead.
How do I cram for the AP exam?
Last minute cramming for the AP exam can be a lot, so here’s what you’re going to do. First, figure out how many days you have left and make a realistic study plan that’s divided into three intervals. The first interval is for reviewing your material from class, finding free AP resources to review from & looking over them. In the second interval, go through lots of practice problems and do your vocabulary flashcards daily. As you go through them, make sure to keep track of the questions you got wrong and review those topics. In the third interval, we double down on reviewing our mistakes, identifying problem areas and doing targeted AP practice specifically on those topics.
