Practice Quiz presents 30 free review questions and explanations for the AP English Language and Composition exam given by the College Board.
The Advanced
Placement English Language & Composition exam is administered by the
College Board each May to high school students. Students are tested on their
ability to craft persuasive essays and on how well they can identify literary
devices in samples of literature. The exam is graded on a scale of 1 to 5, with
5 being the highest. Higher institutions can grant college credit based on a
student\'s score at their discretion.
Students are given 3 hours and 15 minutes to complete the two sections on the
test. Section I is sixty minutes long and is inclusive of approximately 55
multiple-choice questions. Section II is two hours and fifteen minutes long and
is the Free Response section, in which students are to read three prompts and
answer the questions within the designated amount of time.
