How can I study for the AP Computer Science Principals Exam
This is a relatively new course with relatively little to no information and I am really nervous about taking the exam and could use a little help #AP #ap-testing #testing #test #computer-science #studying #study-skills

Your best bet is going to be the resources offered directly through College Board.

AP exams are scored relative to the entire student body. Just remember that anyone else taking the exam is also impacted by the lack of study resources.

They do have some Computer Science courses available.
This sites slogan is "Freshman Year For Free".
Modern States’ initial program, Freshman Year for Free™, is intended to let students earn up to one year of college credit without tuition or textbook expense.
It is worth checking this out.
Thank you,

I took quite a few AP exams in High School so I know they can be stressful. The best thing you can do is prepare. For all my AP exams I studied the corresponding Barron's book. It contains practice tests. There are also free options on the internet if you google them. The AP board also periodically releases past test questions which you can study. Their website outlines the topics which will be on the test.
