What you get afterwards

The number of questions you got right, the percentage, a breakdown by section and a full review. Each explanation gives the reasoning and then names the most tempting wrong answer and says why it fails. There is no AP score of 1 to 5: free response is not included and the College Board publishes no cut scores for its forms.

Before you start

Set aside 60 minutes without interruption. If you close the tab, the session is kept and you can return to it at the same address, but the clock keeps running, as it would in the exam room.

Frequently asked questions

Is the AP Human Geography exam digital?

Yes. The whole exam, multiple choice and free response, is taken in the Bluebook app. This practice test simulates the multiple-choice section only.

Which units does AP Human Geography multiple choice cover?

Seven units: Thinking Geographically (8-10%) and six units at 12-17% each, on population and migration, culture, political geography, agriculture, cities, and industrial and economic development. This practice test gives Unit 1 six questions and every other unit nine.

Are there maps in this practice test?

No. About a third of the real questions use a stimulus such as a map, table, graph or image. Here every stimulus is a data table or a short text about a made-up place, so no question depends on a picture.

How many multiple-choice questions are on the AP Human Geography exam?

The multiple-choice section has 60 questions in 60 minutes and counts for 50% of the exam score.

Does this practice test give me an AP score?

No. It reports how many questions you got right and the percentage. The AP score of 1 to 5 also depends on the free-response section, which is not included, and the College Board does not publish the cut scores for each form.

Is there a penalty for wrong answers?

No. AP multiple choice is scored on correct answers only, so answer every question.

Is AxoPrep official?

No. AxoPrep is not affiliated with the College Board. AP is a trademark of the College Board. Every question here is original.
