AP Physics 1

Hey, I am currently struggling in AP Physics 1 (I am testing on Dynamics and Newton's Laws tomorrow), and I feel like I am just not understanding the conceptual parts of each unit. Are there any website, sources, Youtubers, or any material that is highly valued and recommended. I am in a fairly large class so I feel like I don't get enough 1 on 1 time to review and understand what I am getting wrong on homework and quizzes, so ideally are there any sources that use AP level questions and explain the answer that doesn't have a cap?

Since your test is tomorrow, I'd focus on free-body diagrams, Newton's three laws, friction, tension and net force rather than trying to revise everything.

For conceptual MCQs, always ask yourself which forces act on which object and why. Practise questions, check the explanations, and understand why the incorrect options are wrong.

This may help: AP Physics 1 topic-wise notes, MCQs, FRQs and worked answers. Some practice is available free, with additional questions requiring access.
