Ap Language and Compostion (a question concerning test% and content)

Test Preparation AP Test Preparation
1

<p>Greetings. </p>

<p>I am going to take the AP lang and comp in about 3 weeks and need major prepping during spring break. So far, I have run into a few questions. I would appreciate it if anyone could offer an answer or input ot the following:</p>

<p>1) What % is needed for MC and combined FR to get a 4 and 5.</p>

<p>2) What is the meaning of a "literary convention of characterization"?</p>

<p>3) How ideal are the Cliffs, Princeton, or Kaplan prep books compared to the actual test?</p>

<p>4) For the essay portion, is there any strategic way to attack the questions with greater efficiency? (For example, allotting 30 mins to essay, 5 mins thinking, 5 mins correcting mistakes)</p>

<p>5) Would it be helpful to recall several books previously read to use in essays?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>3) I think Cliffs is the most useful book of the three because of the practice tests. Other CC'ers seem to agree because it is in Ryan's top list.</p>
