Is SAT II literature more difficult or is AP Literature more difficult?

<p>What do you think?</p>

2

<p>subj test is more of logical thinking I guess... As far as I see.
AP test involves course knowledge too, right?</p>

3

<p>definitely AP. i mean, SAT II is third year of high school, whereas AP theoretically counts as college credit.</p>

4

<p>Definitely SAT II, imo. 100%.</p>

5

<p>SATII, getting an 800 is nearly impossible. getting a 5 in the AP exam, is somewhat easier....actually WAYYYYY easier</p>

6

<p>SAT II, for sure.</p>

7

<p>I got a 5 on the AP sophomore year...and I just took a normal english class and skimmed the princeton review book. The SAT2 is far more difficult.</p>

8

<p>seriously? because according to everyone at my school who has taken both, the AP test is harder.</p>

9

<p>Does it help to take AP Lit before taking the SAT II?</p>

10

<p>D reviewed using Barron's 2009 book for SAT II Lit. test and scored 800 in October. Try that book.</p>

11

<p>^ yes, that and Kaplan are great books. This thread has inflated my ego tbh (I have an 800 Lit :P)</p>

<p>I think what makes SATII Lit very difficult is that if you mess up on interpreting one passage you're screwed lol</p>

12

<p>Like ChoklitRain, I "aced" the AP Lit after two years under a very rigorous high school English curriculum.</p>

<p>When I decided to consider the SAT II Lit my junior year, I couldn't break 700 on any of the three official practice tests that I took. Bah.</p>

13

<p>Ah, crap, I probably shouldn't have signed up for that one. Does it have anything to do specifically with books covered in the curriculum? Only because I haven't taken AP lit, but I have taken two dual-credit honors English classes, and to my knowledge they have nothing to do with the AP curriculum...</p>

<p>And if so, can I cancel taking that test before test day?</p>
