How to use the AP Precalculus practice exams

Each exam is a timed AP Precalculus 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 4 units: Unit 1 (Polynomial and Rational Functions), Unit 2 (Exponential and Logarithmic Functions), Unit 3 (Trigonometric and Polar Functions), Unit 4 (Functions Involving Parameters, Vectors, and Matrices).
  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.
