Hey Im a junior in AP physics one and was wondering if there are any good tips anyone has for me to study for this upcoming exam in about a week or so. I am struggling a bit because my teacher had her baby and she has been out for the last 5 weeks and the only sub they could get us what and english sub:/ so I’m in a bit of a dilemma here.
1.) Any good tips for the exam (it changed from physics B so please just for physics 1 unless it applies to both I guess)
----Main Question------
2.) I’m having a hard time finding physics MC practice questions. They have only released 9 actual questions on the college board site that will actually fit into the new curriculum. I know they are only releasing actual ones to teachers only for finals and stuff. So, I was wondering if anybody knew any other resources I could get practice MC questions from.
Thanks!
Resources:

^^25 MCs and a few FRQs.

^^problem sets for each unit that are somewhat like the the problems in AP Physics 1.
Advice:
The main difference between physics b and physics 1 is that physics 1 asks questions based on a conceptual understanding while physics B used to ask questions mostly based on calculation. For example:
Physics B style question:
Calculate the acceleration of the 100g cart.
Typical Physics 1 questions:
Rank the accelerations of these carts
Can the acceleration of the 100g cart be determined from the given information?
How would the acceleration of a 250g cart compare with the acceleration of the 100g cart.
However, there are still going to be some physics-b style questions on the new physics 1 exam
ok thanks ill try the aplusphysics questions out. Good luck on the exam next week if you are taking it!
