<p>What exactly does AP Spanish Lit test? And how hard would it be to self study it while I take AP Spanish Lang Senior year?</p>
<p>I already posted this on the AP Exam Prep board but I figured I'd get more response here.</p>
<p>First off, there are all of three people on CC who take Spanish Lit, so hardly more response, but today is your lucky day.
You will need to have read 35-40 “classic” Spanish books. You will need to know all major literary and artistic movements from the 1300s up through last week. The readings are significantly more difficult than AP Spanish Lang ones. Beyond that, it boils down to the teacher, which you do not really have. However, you are taking the Lang one in school I suppose, which could change things. If you live on the East Coast, not really, because statistically most teachers are not native speakers. Some teachers might make the Spanish Lang class incorporate some aspects of culture and literary movements that you would have to know for the lit test.
Preparing for the test: There are plenty of online resources, but I have been through all of them and all but one demonstrate less understanding of the complexities of Spanish than my 13 year old brother has. We’re not native speakers by the way.
So, I will do you a favor. I will give you
THE GOD
