The Experience
This Collegeboard MCQ has helped me learn a little more about the atmosphere of an actual test. This test was both challenging and fun, making me think about all the information I have learned so far. I was also able to gain experience on trying to do an MCQ as quickly as possible, and I was also able to see how the questions on collegeboard were formatted. Overall, while a little stressful, the Collegeboard MCQ is a great learning opportunity for the AP test.
