Free Response Question
As you get closer to the AP Exam, it is important to understand how exam questions are
framed and how they are scored. In this lesson you will write a response to a Free
Response Question (FRQ) that is similar to a previous AP Exam question. Your rubric
for this assignment differs from an AP scoring guideline in that each question will have
more points than is awarded on the AP exam. Your instructor wants you to take this
assignment seriously, thus more points. Each year, at least one FRQ is eclectic, asking
students to apply and link psychology terms from variety of lessons (cumulative) to a
particular scenario. Expect at least one of these cumulative type FRQs on the exam.
FRQs can be intimidating...
But if you understand exactly what the grader is looking for and you know your
vocabulary well, the FRQs will give your AP Exam score a boost! Take a look at these
