First Entry - Peterson's AP English

As I took the Peterson's AP english practice test, I noticed a few things that will help me with the real AP exam in the spring. I was very surprised to see that there were a lot of very direct questions; no analytical thinking involved. While that is not true for a lot of them, there were quite a few questions involving answers that were simply stated in the article given. That makes me wonder how much of it will be true to the Ap test this year, but hopefully there will be some questions similar to those. One thing that I had problems with was recalling information from past years. Since I haven't been in school, and haven't been doing anything regarding much thought, when questions came up asking about what type of entry the piece was, I got frustrated. It will be an easy fix once school starts, but at the time I was distraught at my lack of memory. All in all, however, I did very well. Taking this practice test has made me feel confident in my ability to take this class and earn some sort of credit. There were things that I missed and I have a lot of skills that I need to fine-tune, but overall I did better than I had expected.
