How did you do on the English Literature AP exam?

[GigaCluster]

I know that there are other threads covering other AP exams, but this one is particularly for today's English Literature AP exam, generally taken by seniors.

Section 1:
1) Nows and Laters
2) Religious girl, mother, and father
3) Criticism
4) Cemetery
5) Shakespeare's Sonnet 90 (potential loss of friend)
6) [[[some other one?]]]

Section 2:
1) Compare and contrast the portrayal of dark and night by Emily Dickinson vs. Robert Frost.
2) Character analysis of the tutor, mother, and son.
3) Using your own literature, confirm the quote "Literature is the question minus the answer."

Which was the most difficult essay for you? Which was the easiest one?
Which literary work did you use for Section 2, essay 3?

I took it last year and got a four. I really didn't enjoy it, though, and it was the only AP test that made me really tired. As in, hardly able to lift my head off the table tired.

got a 5 in 1999... I hate the idea of AP classes, though.

I took Freshman Lit during my freshman year anyways, even though I was exempt, because there was an honors section and it counted towards the 33 honors credits I needed for graduation. There's no way that the AP class I took in high school was a substitute for the class I took in college... I learned so much more in Freshman Lit than I learned in AP Lit.
