Sample Questions & Scoring Guidelines
The AP English Language & Composition Exam is three hours and fifteen minutes long and consists of two sections. In Section I, students are given one hour to answer approximately 55 multiple-choice questions. In Section II, following a fifteen-minute reading period, students must answer three free-response questions within two hours. The multiple-choice questions test how well students are able to analyze the rhetoric of prose passages. Through the free-response questions students demonstrate their composition skills by writing essays in response to a variety of tasks that call for rhetorical analysis, synthesis of information sources, and argument.
You can find additional free-response questions and scoring guidelines on AP Central, along with grade distributions and examples of actual students' responses and commentary that explains why the responses received the scores they did.
