AP Test Prep Options

Below are several options for your AP Test Prep time. Don't forget to comment on this blog post once you have logged your 2 hours! (It won't show your comment right away. I have to approve comments before they show up on here.)

Varsity Tutors
This site does not require you to set up an account to use, but if you do, it keeps track of your scores and such.  It includes diagnostic tests, practice tests, flashcards, etc. It also offers explanation as to why certain answers are correct and incorrect on the practice tests. You could spend quite a bit of time on this site!
