Where to study for AP Exams

Most students learn the material in an AP class at school, then add extra practice before May. The free College Board materials are the place to start, because they show exactly what each exam tests and how it’s scored. If you want more, these are the websites, books and videos students actually use. We checked each one’s price and what’s free in October 2026.
