Practice AP Exam

Below is a link to the multiple choice section of an AP practice exam. 

To get an idea of what taking the AP exam will be like, set a timer for 90 minutes and take this exam.  DO NOT LEAVE ANY ANSWER BLANK. 

You may use a basic calculator on this exam, and the formula sheet.  You can view the AP biology formula sheet at this link.  I would print that formula sheet out before you started your practice exam.
