French literature for an intermediate/advanced student?

Test Preparation SAT Subject Test Preparation
1

<p>Alright, so I'm a fourth-year French student (actually, it's been five years, but we did the first-year level over the course of two years in middle school) seeking to improve my French skills and French SAT II score by reading a lot over the summer. </p>

<p>Next year's course, French V AP, is geared toward preparing us for the AP test, if that gives you an idea of where I am. I'm pretty familiar with most grammar, but (as I found out firsthand) I haven't been exposed to much of the vocabulary on the SAT II. I'd like to improve my score by 110 points minimum -- yeaaah, it was that bad. I have the Barron's book and have made flashcards of some of the vocab in there that I don't know (I doubt there are enough flashcards in the world to make them for ALL of the words I don't know, but I'm gonna try!) So far, I know that I want to read *L'</p>

<p>I teach HS French. I would guess that you are taking the AP in French Language, not in French Literature. Lit is pretty hard, and Lang is sufficient. You should read what you are interested in. The Barrons is good. I would work with this web site:
French</a> Tutorials Index: Basic Phrases, Vocabulary and Grammar at ielanguages.com
It has loads of vocabulary lists and grammar rules in about 6 or 7 "tutorials." </p>

<p>Also, you can use this web site:
La</a> Page de Laura
to practice your grammar. </p>

<p>Bonne chance!</p>

<p>Merci beaucoup! Both pages look great. And yep, I'm going to take the Language one: I hear it's like the English Language test, except in French! O__O</p>
