The Exam Was Redesigned — Old Study Guides Use the Wrong Numbers
Starting with the exam given in the 2024-2025 school year, College Board cut AP Psychology's multiple choice section from 100 to 75 questions and replaced the old 2-FRQ format with two new question types: the Article Analysis Question (AAQ) and the Evidence-Based Question (EBQ). Multiple choice still carries roughly two-thirds of the score and free response the remaining third — the weighting held steady even though the question counts and formats changed, which is exactly the kind of detail an older calculator or study guide can get wrong.
Section Breakdown
| Section | Format | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Multiple Choice | 75 questions | ~67% |
| Article Analysis Question (AAQ) | 1 question, 7 raw points, ~25 min | Part of ~33% |
| Evidence-Based Question (EBQ) | 1 question, 7 raw points, ~45 min | Part of ~33% |
