Collegeboard changed the AP CSP exam...

AP Computer Science Principles (or AP CSP) is known to be one of the easiest AP courses and have one of the easiest AP exams. However, with the rise of certain AI tools, Collegeboard believes they need to change the AP exam. This video covers all of the new changes to the AP exam and gives tips on how to still score a 5 on the exam. The course will still be relatively easy, but the exam may now take some "preparing" to do if you want to score a 5.

If you're currently taking, or planning to take AP CSP soon, feel free to watch our video on the AP CSP course rundown:

[davidlee]

I took this class in freshman year and it was the easiest class/exam i have ever taken. I do not know how I only got a 4

Could you make any sort of review vid for csp/just provide some key concepts/tips to study for? i decided to start studying 4 days before the exam.

I’m a sophomore right now taking AP CSP this year and was overconfident for a 5. Now I am really nervous after watching video. In total, I’m taking 4 AP classes: AP CSP, AP euro, AP CSA, and AP psych.

I can't tell you how I know, but the written prompt questions are so weird. For example, one of them is an overcomplicated way of asking if you showed anyone your code or got outside help. Just say something like, 'If I had to change one thing...' Also, the written questions are very general; they don't tell you anything specific, so you have to take them at face value. Also they try to make the question ai proof so if your plan is to cheese it good luck.

Also, one last thing: whatever you do, DO NOT PUT COMMENTS ON YOUR CODE. You get an auto 0 for plagiarism/cheating.

the written responses were hella light

I’m mad that I didn’t take the create performance task seriously last year so I only got a 3 on the test 💀

[ikaitlynn]

hey, im currently a freshman taking this class, and tbh i dont even know half the things that go on due to my teacher never teaching anything (he's an old teacher). what do u think i should specifically study for the exam??

[htsckdt]

Hey, thank you for this video. I have it tmw, and I was wondering approximately how many sentences should I write for the FRQ?

[CookieTheDog]

Hello sir, I am completely new to Computer Science and I would like to try it out. I'm going to be a freshman, and I was wondering if this exam was optional? Also, is there anything or any website I should do to study? thanks!

What’s resources do you use for study to the Ap Csp exam ?

[PranjalJain-pphb]

how should i prepare what resources should i use to study for this exam?

[BVB_rose]

Hey so my performance task idea is basically a quiz. CSP quiz where i qiz all the big idea (but i put 5 questions for each big ideA) is that good??

[HigumaYT]

Hiii omg, this video was so helpful thank you. As a freshman taking this rn, I’m so scared about the MCQs because I took a lot of practice tests and I did pretty bad on them (like a 75 🥲) and I don’t really know what to study because I know the content, just the style of questions are super annoying and I’m having a hard time focusing. Everyone says it’s like the easiest ap but I’m super worried. Also I’m not dumb, I have a 98 in the actual class 😭😭. Got any tips?

[felix-ozvu]

hey man, any study tips for this year's free response section of the exam? not really sure how to study for it 😭😭

[hanna]

now on collegeboard it says that it's only two questions, which one is it 😭

[LeoChen-vz]

"When that day comes..." lmao I have it next hour OMG so

[MarbleTube_]

What if I want to self study the AP exam without the course?
