How this list was compiled: Our own questions, written to Unit 6 (Integration and Accumulation of Change, topics 6.1 to 6.14) of the College Board's AP Calculus AB and BC Course and Exam Description, effective fall 2020, https://apcentral.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/ap-calculus-ab-and-bc-course-and-exam-description.pdf, read 2026-10-11. Every answer is mathematics worked from what the question prints, and each one was worked out a second time on 2026-10-11, the wrong choices included. The rule behind each answer was read on 2026-10-11 in the Wikipedia article named under the question. Licence: Own work.

How it works

This AP Calc practice test on integration has 54 questions of our own on Unit 6, Integration and Accumulation of Change, for AB and BC. It is unofficial and not affiliated with or endorsed by the College Board.

Read the full guide

What the test covers

Unit 6 has fourteen topics in the College Board's course description, read October 11, 2026, and the bank follows them in six sets: the Fundamental Theorem and accumulation functions (11 questions), antiderivatives (9), substitution, long division and completing the square (10), properties of definite integrals (8), accumulation and Riemann sums (9), and the BC-only topics of integration by parts, partial fractions and improper integrals (7). The split is ours.

How answers were checked

Every answer was worked a second time, and so was every wrong choice. The rule behind each one links to the Wikipedia article it was read in.

  • After any antiderivative, differentiate your answer. If the integrand does not come back, the answer is wrong.
  • In a definite integral by substitution, change the limits when you change the variable.

Questions and answers

Is integration Unit 4 or Unit 6 in AP Calculus?

Unit 6, Integration and Accumulation of Change, in the course description in force since fall 2020. Unit 4 there is Contextual Applications of Differentiation. A class that calls integration its fourth unit follows its own order, and these questions still fit.

How much of the AP Calculus exam is Unit 6?

Between 15 and 20% of the multiple-choice section in both AB and BC, by the College Board's course description. In AB only Unit 5 carries as much.

Is this practice test for AP Calculus AB or BC?

Both. Forty-seven questions are on topics the two courses share. Seven, marked BC only, come last and cover integration by parts, partial fractions and improper integrals, which the course description gives to BC alone.

Does the test include u-substitution?

Yes. Seven questions use substitution, on indefinite integrals and on definite ones where the limits change with the variable. Three more rewrite the integrand first by long division or completing the square.

Are these real AP Calculus exam questions?

No. The College Board owns the real questions, and none appears here even in other words. Every question on this page was written for it from the unit's topic statements.
