The AP® exam is not just about the calculations. By reviewing the free-response questions from 2008, teachers and pupils see that several items require justifications and explanations to gain full credit. The chief reader even points out that there is a need for practice of writing justifications and using clear and mathematically precise language in his comments. Teachers use the examples to model other questions throughout the year to illicit writing.
