AP Environmental Science Exam Overview

The College Board is very detailed in what they require your AP teacher to cover in his or her AP Environmental Science course. You should be familiar with environmental concepts from the following 9 units:

• Unit 1: The Living World: Ecosystems
• Unit 2: The Living World: Biodiversity
• Unit 3: Populations
• Unit 4: Earth Systems and Resources
• Unit 5: Land and Water Use
• Unit 6: Energy Resources and Consumption
• Unit 7: Atmospheric Pollution
• Unit 8: Aquatic and Terrestrial Pollution
• Unit 9: Global Change

AP Environmental Science Sections & Question Types

The AP Environmental Science exam takes 2 hours and 40 minutes to complete and is composed of two sections: a multiple-choice and a free response section.

Multiple-Choice

The AP Environmental Science multiple choice questions are made up of two types: individual, single questions and sets of questions based on diagrams or data representations (i.e. charts, tables, graphs, etc.). For this section, the College Board will expect you to do these seven skills:

• Explain environmental concepts, processes, and models
• Analyze visual representations
• Analyze text sources
• Analyze research studies
• Analyze and interpret data
• Use math in solving problems
• Propose and justify solutions to environmental problems

Free Response

The free response section for the exam includes three types of questions. Question 1 will have you design an investigation. Questions 2 and 3 will require you to analyze and propose a solution for an environmental problem, but only one will require you to do calculations. Similar to the multiple choice section, this section will also test those seven skills.

AP scores are reported from 1 to 5. Here’s how students scored on AP Environmental Science exam in May 2020:
