To read or not to to read

<p>For the AP Lang exam, is it advised to skim the passages and look at the questions first like the ACTs or should I read the passages first? Also, how much emphasis is placed on poetry analysis?</p>

<p>I took Lit, but I just start with the passages and then look at the questions and go back. I think looking at the questions first and then skimming the passage for answers wastes time.</p>
