what's new @

We've finished upgrading practice questions across the entire platform. These last 12 subjects — AP Statistics, AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Physics (all variants), AP English Literature, AP Music Theory, AP Microeconomics, AP Macroeconomics, and AP Computer Science Principles — complete the upgrade.

Every question is now built directly from College Board's Course and Exam Description data and mapped to specific skills and learning objectives. No more guessing what you're practicing — you get the exact scaffolding the exam tests. The rigor matches what you'll actually see on test day.

You can filter by skill in the practice hub to target weak spots. All subjects, all questions, fully upgraded.

Reading a study guide is one thing. Actually testing yourself on it is another — and that's where the learning happens.

Now when you're on any study guide, highlight the text you want to understand better and click "Quiz Me." You'll get multiple-choice questions pulled straight from that section, with explanations that break down why each answer works (or doesn't).

Some topics just make more sense as a picture. Now you can hit "Create Cheatsheet" on any study guide and get a visual breakdown — key concepts, relationships, and comparisons all in one place.

Perfect for visual learners, last-minute review, or when you just need to see the big picture before diving into the details. Save them, print them, or keep them on your phone for quick reference.

Available now across all AP subjects. Try it on any study guide →

Calculus tests love to throw problems where three different approaches could work — but only one makes sense given what you're asked to find. These questions focus on that kind of reasoning.

Wrong answers are designed to catch common misconceptions (like confusing when to use the chain rule versus product rule). Each one comes with an explanation of why that approach doesn't work for this specific problem.

AMSCO textbooks are condensed, but they're still thick. And figuring out what's actually important to write down? That's the hard part.

We went through all 10 AMSCO books (newest editions) and wrote questions for each section to guide your notes. Every chapter includes learning objectives, coverage for every section, and key terms. View them on the site, print them out, or export to Google Docs — with just the questions or space for answers built in.

Covers AP US History, AP European History, AP World History, AP Macro, AP Micro, AP English Lit, AP English Lang, AP Psych, AP Human Geo, and AP US Gov. Browse guided notes →

Some ideas just click better when you can picture them. Now you can select any term, definition, or concept and tap "Visualize" to create a custom image that makes it stick.

Works across all AP subjects — whether you're trying to picture the stages of mitosis, the structure of a Roman forum, or what supply and demand curves actually look like in real life.

These were written by teachers who knew the material. Now they're even more precise. Every guide was evaluated against the official Course and Exam Description and improved where it counted.

Concepts are more thoroughly covered. Code examples are more accurate. Small errors got fixed. Nothing unnecessary was added — just targeted strengthening of what was already there.

Teacher and student-written guides that worked got a quality pass. Each one was evaluated against the official Course and Exam Description and improved where it counted.

Topics that were light are now properly covered. Examples match what the CED emphasizes. Small mistakes disappeared. The content you relied on stayed — we just made it more accurate and thorough.

Good content got better through systematic review. Every guide was checked against the official Course and Exam Description and strengthened where it mattered.

Concepts that needed more depth got it. Examples are sharper and more relevant. Small errors fixed. The original structure and voice stayed — we just made it more accurate and complete.

AP Lang isn't about identifying literary devices. It's about explaining why an author made specific choices and how they strengthen (or weaken) an argument. These questions focus on that analysis.

Wrong answers represent surface-level readings that miss the actual rhetorical effect. Explanations help you see the difference between recognizing a technique and understanding its purpose.

Making a quiz usually means bouncing between tabs, copying questions, fixing formatting, and hoping the answer key doesn't get messed up in the process.

Now you can build quizzes in Google Forms using questions from Fiveable's library. Pick the questions you want, and they'll flow into a Form with the formatting and answer key already set. Works with the thousands of practice questions we already have.

It's in the same place as printables — just look for the quiz option when you're building something new.

Waiting for pages to load on your phone is annoying when you're trying to study between classes (or literally anywhere that's not your desk).

We optimized how the site loads on mobile — lighter scripts, removed some heavy code that was slowing things down. You'll notice it most when you're jumping between different pages or coming back to the app.

This works everywhere, but if you spend a lot of time in practice questions, it should feel noticeably snappier.

The old way of testing this subject — memorize facts, regurgitate them — misses the whole point. These questions focus on analysis and connections between historical events, cultural movements, and their lasting impact.

Every question maps to a specific skill from the official CED. Wrong answers come with explanations that break down why they're wrong, so you learn the distinctions between similar concepts (like different forms of resistance or artistic movements).

Start practicing →

Printing practice questions for later makes sense — until you're staring at wrong answers with no idea why. You could flip back to your phone, but that defeats the point of printing them.

Now when you print practice questions, you get the full explanations and walkthroughs right there on the page. Same format you're used to, just bundled together for offline studying.

Teachers can now print or share PDFs of quizzes with your students, without needing individual student accounts.

You know which skills you're shaky on (stimulus questions, anyone?). Now you can actually practice just those.

Use the dropdown to filter practice questions by AP skill. Want to drill only comparison questions? Or focus on causation? You can now. This works across all AP subjects in guided practice.

APES tests love interdisciplinary thinking. A question about water might actually be testing your understanding of agriculture, policy, or economics. These questions reflect that interconnected approach.

Each question maps to specific skills like data analysis, experimental design, or evaluating solutions. Wrong answers often look right if you only know one piece of the puzzle — explanations show you what you missed.

Try them →

Terms are the foundation. You can't analyze a Supreme Court case if you don't know what judicial review means. You can't compare governments if confederation and federalism are fuzzy.

These questions test whether you actually know the definitions, not just whether they sound familiar. Short, direct, and built to help you lock in the basics before moving on to application questions.

They're already mixed into guided practice across all AP subjects. Filter by question type if you want to focus on vocab specifically.

Start practicing →

AP Comp Gov covers six countries, and questions often mix them together. That's fine for full practice, but not when you're trying to actually learn the political system of one country.

Now you can filter practice questions by country. Working through China's party structure? Filter to just China questions. Need to understand Nigeria's federal system before the next unit test? Focus there.

All six required countries are available: China, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria, Russia, and the United Kingdom.

Try it in practice →

Psych questions describe a situation and ask you to recognize which theory or concept applies. That requires understanding what each theory actually predicts, not just knowing its name.

Wrong answers are terms that sound relevant but don't fit the scenario. Explanations break down why the scenario matches one concept and not another — those distinctions are what the exam tests.

Practice application →

Art history isn't a matching game. These questions ask you to analyze why a piece matters, how it reflects its time period, or what makes two similar-looking works fundamentally different.

Each wrong answer gets its own explanation. That matters here because understanding why a work isn't Baroque (but looks like it could be) teaches you more than just knowing what Baroque actually is.

Practice with the full set →

This exam is all about comparison — why does Iran's system produce different outcomes than the UK's? These questions push you to think across countries and identify patterns in how institutions actually work.

Every question ties to a specific skill and learning objective. Wrong answers represent plausible-but-incorrect comparisons, with explanations that clarify the actual differences between systems.

Start comparing →

Human Geo is about seeing patterns in how people interact with places. These questions give you a scenario and ask you to explain it using course concepts (not just define those concepts).

Coverage spans every skill and learning objective from the CED. Wrong answers often use the right vocabulary incorrectly — explanations clarify the precise meaning of terms like "gentrification" or "sovereignty."

Explore all questions →

You got a question wrong, but the explanation doesn't click. Or you guessed right and want to know why. Either way, you're stuck.

Practice questions now have detailed walkthroughs that explain the reasoning behind each answer. Not just "here's the correct answer" — actual breakdowns of why wrong answers don't work and how to think through similar questions next time.

This is a paid feature. If you're working through practice sets and want to actually understand what you're missing (not just memorize answers), these walkthroughs help.

Getting buy-in from parents (or explaining your setup to teachers) usually means forwarding a bunch of links and hoping they piece it together.

Not taking AP doesn't mean you should settle for lower-quality practice. These questions use the same evaluation process: mapped to learning objectives, tested for rigor, and built to require actual understanding.

Subjects include honors versions of core classes plus non-AP courses. Every question has explanations for each answer choice, so you learn why wrong answers don't work (not just which one is right).

AP History essays start with SAQs — short responses where you analyze a source, make a claim, and back it up. They're worth 20% of your exam score, but most practice stops at multiple choice.

Now you can practice with real stimulus-based questions (maps, political cartoons, excerpts from historical documents) and get graded on your answers. Over 4,500 question sets across AP World, APUSH, and AP Euro, organized by time period and topic.

The grading checks if you actually answered the prompt, cited evidence, and explained your reasoning. No guessing if you're on the right track.

Gov questions often ask you to link the Constitution or Federalist Papers to modern policy debates. These questions practice that skill — applying historical principles to contemporary scenarios.

Each question targets a specific skill from the CED. Wrong answers represent common misconceptions about how government institutions actually work, with explanations that clarify the real mechanics.

Start analyzing →

Most AP history questions aren't just recall anymore. They give you a document, image, or data set, then ask you to analyze it. That's what these 3,641 new practice sets focus on.

You'll work with primary sources, political cartoons, charts, and historical passages across AP World, APUSH, and AP Euro. Same guided practice setup — pick your topics, get instant feedback, see explanations when you need them.

If you're prepping for any AP history exam, these are worth doing. Start practicing →

Euro questions are rarely about a single event. They're about patterns — how the Reformation connects to later political thought, or why certain revolutions succeeded while others failed. These questions reflect that comparative approach.

Distractors are historically accurate statements that don't answer what's actually being asked. That's on purpose. The explanations help you learn to identify what the question is really testing.

Practice historical thinking →

APUSH isn't a timeline quiz. It's about causation, comparison, and change over time. These questions push you to think like that — connecting events across periods and evaluating different historical interpretations.

Questions map to every skill and learning objective in the CED. Distractors are historically accurate but don't answer what's asked — the explanations help you learn to read questions more carefully.

We ran every Chemistry guide through a detailed check against the CED. Not a rewrite, just targeted improvements where they'd make a difference.

If a concept was supposed to be covered but felt light, we fleshed it out. Examples got more accurate. Small mistakes disappeared. The core content you relied on is still there — just clearer and more complete.

The night before an exam, you shouldn't be frantically googling "how long is the DBQ section" or "what's actually on the AP Bio FRQs."

We published exam guides for 15+ AP subjects that cover what's on each exam, how it's structured, and how much time you get. MCQs, FRQs, DBQs — whatever your exam throws at you, you'll know the format and timing before you walk in.

The guides are the same — the way you read them is better. New layout makes it easier to scan for what you need and actually absorb it.

Works better on mobile (because studying happens on the bus, in the cafeteria, wherever). Navigation is clearer. Less clutter between you and the content.

World questions rarely focus on one region. They ask you to compare, explain global processes, or trace how ideas and goods moved between societies. These questions reflect that global approach.

Every question aligns with a specific skill from the CED. Wrong answers often correctly describe one region but misrepresent the comparison or connection. Explanations clarify what makes the correct answer actually global.

Getting something wrong is only useful if you understand what you missed. Before, you'd see your score but not always get the full picture on where your thinking went sideways.

Now every practice question shows you the right answer and a clear explanation of why the other options don't work. No more wondering if you were close or completely off track.

Solid guides got a systematic upgrade. We went through each one against the official Course and Exam Description and made specific improvements.

These guides were already written by teachers using the Course and Exam Description. Now they're tighter. Concepts that were mentioned briefly are explained more fully. Examples match what the CED actually emphasizes. Small errors and typos cleaned up.

This wasn't a rewrite — it was a targeted upgrade. The stuff that worked stayed. The stuff that could be clearer or more accurate got fixed.

If you're in an honors or regular (non-AP) class, images weren't loading on your class pages. Charts, diagrams, examples — all missing. Not great when you're trying to actually understand something.

This is fixed now. Images show up the same way they do in AP classes.

Reading code is different from writing it. These questions give you a snippet and ask what happens when it runs — testing whether you actually understand loops, conditionals, and object behavior.

Distracting answers are based on common mistakes (like off-by-one errors or misunderstanding pass-by-reference). Each comes with an explanation of why that's not what the code actually does.
