The AP Psychology exam is 2 hours and 40 minutes long in total. It consists of two sections:
- Section I: Multiple Choice - 75 questions, 90 minutes (1 hour 30 minutes), accounting for about 67% of the score.
- Section II: Free Response - 2 questions, 70 minutes (1 hour 10 minutes), accounting for about 33% of the score.
This format is fully digital, with all answers submitted through the Bluebook testing app
. Some sources mention a 2-hour total length with 100 multiple-choice questions in 70 minutes and 2 free-response questions in 50 minutes, but the current official College Board format for 2025 is 2 hours 40 minutes with 75 multiple-choice questions in 90 minutes and 2 free-response questions in 70 minutes
. The 2 hour 40 minute timing aligns with the latest official exam details. In summary, expect to spend about 2 hours and 40 minutes on the AP Psychology exam, with a longer multiple-choice section followed by a free-response section.
