AP English Literature: How to Ace the Multiple-Choice Section

[@balboboogins2511]

The hardest part for me when answering about the meanings of poems and passages, is that sometimes I interpret meanings differently than how the college board wants me to!

[@christianmihalik7070]

im the same way have u found any tips to improve?

[@none-vr6vr]

​@@christianmihalik7070essentially, just try to get yourself into the mindset of college board. there's a ton of free resources online with college board lit questions for you to study!

[@MarcoLearning]

Yes! That can be very frustrating, but remember that the test writers have to have a specific reason (based on information from the text) to support their interpretation. Just keep yourself focused on what's in the text and what can be proven from the text. Good luck 🍀

[@balboboogins2511]

@@MarcoLearning I think the test went really well! I was able to catch the meaning of all but one passage, thank you!

...ignore that it's the night before the exam, but what can I do to improve testing stamina? Oftentimes, I'm reading the passages and it eventually just starts all merging together.

[@Bsuu-d3s]

honestly, read with your finger. It might be slower, but if I start reading merged words it helps

[@arielledarge]

I read the passage twice, once without annotations, and a second time highlighting tone words and rhetorical devices. After that, I write out the literal meaning of the text and what the author is saying. It sounds like a lot, but it really helps me!
