<p>If not, how do they differ?</p>
<p>SAT literature has a lot of poetry and more "interpretive" stuff. No vocab questions, so less "memorization", but they do like to test knowledge of literary terms.</p>
<p>Its is more difficult. The questions are more difficult, more ambiguous, and the passages are less clear.</p>
<p>Here, here! I got a 760 on the CR, but only 650 on the lit -- and I studied for lit! </p>
<p>Meh.</p>
<p>I beg to differ. I got a 800 on my CR, but I'm averaging 770-780 on my lit scores (and only missing stuff due to stupid misreading the answer choice). </p>
<p>Treat it like the CR section, and let the questions and answer choices "teach" you the passage, and you'll start to discover it's remarkably similar :)</p>
<p>I used to score ~700 on CR practice tests and ~700 on Literature practice tests. I brought my Lit score up, and now my CR practice scores are steady 800s.</p>
<p>So, I'd say good Lit score -> good CR score, but maybe not vice versa.</p>
