My guess is that they may reuse some of the problems from year to year.. or every couple of years.. They only do that because it's really hard to make good problems. Anywho.. they don't want people going around talking about the mulit-choice, because it would give an unfair advantage to next year's test-takers. - That's the only reason I can think of.

Now, in terms of if they ever release the multi-choice questions, i think the answer is "yes", they do. Our teacher (who's really big into the entier AP thing, and owns like *every* book to review for it), gave us copies of the multi-choices from like the 1997 & 1998 AP tests. SO... they may release the answers questions after 5 years or something. But, either way, until then the AP doesn't want you talking about specific multi-choice problems. And, since i personally don't want my score voided and banned from feature AP tests.. i guess there's nothing i can do.. lol
