The AP Psychology free response section is worth 33% of students’ exam scores. While this isn’t as much as some other Advanced Placement courses, it is still a meaningful enough percentage that students must do well on these exams to pass. Have a plan for how you’re going to approach answering AP Psych free responses is crucial to making the most of your limited test time.

Here are the five steps to writing effective AP Psychology FRQs that we go over:
1. Understand the difference between the concept application question and the research question.
2. Learn from the mistakes of students from the past exams.
3. Underline or circle what each question part is asking you.
4. Plan out your response BEFORE you start writing.
5. Practice, practice, and then practice some more.

Be sure to pay special attention to the differences we discuss between the Conceptual Application question and the Research question. If you take nothing else away from this video, remember to always apply the term you’re defining to the scenario presented to you in AP Psychology. Simply defining terms is often not enough to score points.

I watched a video about someone saying that we should 1. Define 2. Give an example 3. Relate back to the situation for the concept application question. Is it necessary to give our own example of the concepts? I am worried I won’t have enough time.

[janellysalgado]

Can you explain the correlation does not equal causation concept? Can you also give an example of how it would be used on the exam?

[KyraDanyelle]

Do you have to define the information for the research part? Like let’s say if they asked for the operational definition. Should we define what operational definition is and then say what’s the oper. def. from the question?
