How to use the AP Human Geography practice exams

Each exam is a timed AP Human Geography practice exam, with multiple-choice and free-response sections. Every question has an explanation of the correct answer and of each wrong choice, and is tagged with the AP skill and topic it tests, so a missed question points straight to what to review.

  1. Work through the units first. The exams draw on all 7 units: Unit 1 (Thinking Geographically), Unit 2 (Population and Migration Patterns and Processes), Unit 3 (Cultural Patterns and Processes), Unit 4 (Political Patterns and Processes), Unit 5 (Agriculture and Rural Land-Use Patterns and Processes), Unit 6 (Cities and Urban Land-Use Patterns and Processes), Unit 7 (Industrial and Economic Development Patterns and Processes).
  2. Take Exam 1 in one sitting with the timer on, the way you will sit the real exam. Your score estimate is only meaningful under real timing.
  3. Review every question you missed or guessed. Group the misses by unit and skill, then go back to that unit's video, notes, and flashcards before the next exam.
  4. Space the remaining exams about a week apart so each one measures what you learned since the last. Save Exam 5, the hardest, for the final week before test day.
