OMG, I am screwed for AP literature tomorrow help!

<p>i used the river from siddartha. i also prepared notes for waiting for godot, but i had a brain fart and totally forgot everything i wrote in my godot prep. so i went with siddartha, which is perfect since it was one of my favorite books this year. :slight_smile: </p>

<p>i actually really liked that last poem on the mc. it made me lol, almost. </p>

<p>i wrote furiously and hopefully i got some good analysis in. i really hope that i did well b/c my teacher was such a good english teacher and i feel like i learned so much from her classā€¦so it would be a shame if on the test i got like a 1(knock on wood).</p>

<p>12layla12: I do that all the time, I canā€™t believe I forget the first names and not the last. :D</p>

<p>aupamplemousse: I donā€™t think the page length will be that much of a problem, except for one where you only wrote a page. It might hurt your grade a little, but Iā€™m not sure.</p>

<p>hopeful_gtb: I feel the same way! My teacher prepared me soo well, and she is the best english teacher I have had ever. The last on the MC was such a good passage.</p>

<p>Yeah I used Lord of the Flies as well, but I used the pigā€™s head and the presence of the Beast (basically same symbol). I did so terrible on the ā€œShakespeareā€ poem and the crow short story. </p>

<p>I canā€™t guesstimate how well I did, but anyone know what you should get on MC and essays to get a 4 atleast?</p>

<p>anyone please? tusks as a _______</p>

<p>???</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you explained it well, Iā€™m sure those could work ā€“ along with much else in that book. I wrote about the heads on stakes.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>As a phallic symbol? Our English class (one full of girls with a female teacher with me being the only guy) basically said anything they could was a phallic symbol. The other day we were reading a very very short story ā€œThe Birthday Partyā€ and there was a cake and the candle on it was also a phallic symbol apparently which made me laugh. But anyway, so yea if my AP class was any indication then I guess that should be fine.</p>

<p>no as a corruption of light</p>

<p>light is usually goodā€¦but in this case, its not. white= light but its bad</p>

<p>before we started testing, our teacher came in and gave us a little speech on how she prayed to the english gods to help us all today while she was driving to school (and then she hit a pigeonā€¦ but since theyre like flying rats, it doesnt matter. thank god it wasnt a dove lol) and as she was saying how proud she was of all of us, she started crying. it made me like, even more nervous because now we have to pass the test!!</p>

<p>I used Blancheā€™s rape in A Streetcar and Desire. worked out pretty well.</p>

<p>lol did anyone notice the repeated use of ā€œfingeringā€ in the 2nd passage? I really felt the need to apologize to the reader because I used that so many times in my essay hahaha. </p>

<p>ā€œThe wind fingered through the crevices of the sidewalkā€. I wanted to put thatā€™s what she said and then cross it out but i didnā€™t go through with it XD</p>

<p>12layla12: My teacher cried while waving our bus away this morning. It was soo cute! If anything were were deff pumped/nervous to take the test and make our teacher proud.</p>

<p>Oh rofl. Then why did you say you couldnā€™t say it? I thought it was something that youā€™re not supposed to say on the forums or something. Sorry haha.</p>

<p>wuthering heightsā€“moors for the open ques.</p>

<p>is my tusks description any good/?</p>

<p>^ it probably will be fine. as long as you defended your idea.</p>

<p>You guys have such cute teachers! LOL @ the pigeon thingā€¦</p>

<p>i wrote about Lord of the Flies with the conch shell being a symbol of their civility/unity, and how once itā€™s gone, so is their humanity.</p>

<p>Our teacher made us a quiche and sent that over along with some muffins and juice advertised on the bottle to boost brain performance with our proctors LOL.</p>

<p>That was cakeā€¦ and my teacher was ****. Never did a single timed essay, and I pulled that off.</p>

<p>My essay #3, The Catcher in the Ryeā€¦ the song The Catcher in the Rye.</p>

<p>I had 1984 all preparedā€¦ and then TOTALLY blanked. I also blanked on Holdenā€™s last name and the authorā€™s first initialā€¦ but besides from that I think Iā€™m good.</p>

<p>I wrote about the handkerchief in Othello. Anyone else?</p>

<p>I kind of had trouble with the multiple choice, but I suppose I always feel that way. :frowning: Oh, well. I really wanted a 5, but Iā€™m probably getting a 4 (not to say that a 4 isnā€™t respectable).</p>

<p>Essays werenā€™t bad for me. A little confused about #2, and I hope I did #1 correctly. I did them in the order 3 2 1 and wrote 2.5 pages, 1.9 pages, and 2.2 pages respectively (estimated, obviously). lol.</p>

<p>I think I did well on the MC, but I fell asleep like 25 minutes into the essay portionā€¦nobody woke me up lol</p>
