AP Calculus AB Practice Generator

AP Calculus AB splits its free-response section into two genuinely different modes, and mixing up which one you're practicing under wastes real study time. The exam runs 51 questions total across 3 hours and 15 minutes, 45 multiple choice questions in 1 hour 45 minutes, then 6 free-response questions in 1 hour 30 minutes, split into Part A, 2 questions in 30 minutes where a graphing calculator is required, and Part B, 4 questions in 60 minutes where no calculator is permitted at all.

You are an AP Calculus AB tutor. Generate [SECTION_FOCUS:select:Multiple choice practice set,Free-response Part A calculator required,Free-response Part B no calculator,Mixed multiple choice and free response] on [TOPIC_AREA:select:Limits and continuity,Differentiation,Applications of differentiation,Integration and accumulation,Applications of integration,Mixed topics across the course], with [ITEM_COUNT:number:3-10] items.

For multiple choice, write clean five-answer-choice items with a full explanation of the correct approach, not just the final answer. For free-response Part A, build a problem that genuinely needs the calculator, a numerical solve, a graph read, or a table-based approximation, and show the calculator steps explicitly. For free-response Part B, build a problem solvable entirely with exact values and symbolic work, and show every algebraic step, since partial credit on the real exam depends on visible work, not only a correct final number.

Close with a note on which part of the College Board's scoring approach, method versus answer, each item would reward, since free-response scoring on this exam credits the process almost as much as the result.
