<p>This is the thread for all the domestic students who just took the Literature Subject test today.</p>
<p>So...WHAT JUST HAPPENED TO ME?!?!?! That was HARD!</p>
<p>Yep, I agree. Took it in October and it seemed much easier, as well as much more enjoyable. AP English Lang. was easier than this, and more relaxing.</p>
<p>The passage on Pygmallion was ridiculous. Was he jealous of her eventual fame or what?</p>
<p>I vaguely remember that answer option, and I believe that’s the one I chose. But I usually try to put the tests behind me once I’m done with them. Except for the small dose of complaining, just to make myself feel better.</p>
<p>can we discuss questions now?</p>
<p>Yeah everyone should be done by now. I thought it was pretty easy overall.</p>
<p>I thought it was really difficult. I felt confident after getting a 750 on the bb practice test, but the real test killed me. I was lost with the Pygmalion poem and one the passages…I don’t even remember what it was about but the one with all the “If<strong><em>was</em></strong>” sentences.</p>
<p>I have very little sense of how I did on that. There were a lot of answers I was moderately sure about, but not entirely certain. I could really get anywhere between a 500 - 800 and that makes me really uneasy, lol…</p>
<p>This test is hard to get a read on. I could have done great, I could have done terribly.</p>
<p>lets get some questions going here</p>
<p>what about the question from that passage about london, something about the south sea gods?</p>
<p>^The sea god one was kind of confusing. I think I put something like it was a comparison or similar or something like that.</p>
<p>I got a 5 on my AP Lang exam and do very well in english class and the reading section was my highest on my SAT. So this like took me by surprise it was so hard ! Like someone said there were a lot I was unsure on. The first stanza of the Pygmalion I totally got and then the second one went over my head. Then one passage had a 17 line sentence, I was like THE FREAK?!</p>
<p>The sea gods one was a doozy. </p>
<p>The word “taboo” did indeed come from the South Seas communities, but I didn’t think any of the answers fit. The two I narrowed them down to were the answers on “examples of London pleasure” and “there’s a similarity between englightened <em>whatever that word was</em> and taboo”</p>
<p>Perhaps this was just a thought out of my dirty, dirty, mind… but did anyone think that the last two sentences of the first part of Pygmalion implied that he loved having sex with the living sculpture?</p>
<p>I put that there was a similarity between enlightened and taboo also</p>
<p>That is definitely what that line in the pygmallion one was saying, right? I put “AMOROUS DESIRES” for the answer i think…</p>
<p>^^</p>
<p>Yep, I put amorous desires as well</p>
<p>It was definitely “amorous desires”. The poem even says that he was “lubricious” aka horny.</p>
<p>What about the question with the woman who believed she wasnt any race. Was the answer to one of them “she sometimes found joy yet mostly despondent” ?</p>
