ap physics 1 - frq paragraph responses: strategy & examples
originally streamed in 2020 with Kelley CommefordTeachercurriculum note
This video references the 2015 AP Physics 1 exam format and College Board rubric guidance (e.g., 7 points per short answer, 13-minute suggested timing, 50-point free response total). The AP Physics 1 course has since been revised, so the FRQ format, point allocations, and scoring criteria described may no longer reflect the current exam.
