Diagnostic Test Reflection
I will open my first blog post by saying that I did not enjoy taking the diagnostic test. This is a personal blog after all, so I might as well be honest. That being said, I did not experience much surprise while taking the test. I did perform better than I anticipated, however. 33/50 is not good but I wanted to take AP Lit in order to get better at reading and writing. Hopefully by the end of the year I will score better! I scored better on the analysis of the informative text which I accredit to my strength in reading non-fiction texts. The poetry parts of the test killed me, but I was expecting that because I haven't done much with poetry in my past English classes. I think in general reading comprehension has been tougher for me because I don't read that much but I want to get better at it.

Well, we will certainly practice reading skills in AP Lit! =) Don't worry about that score too much--the AP Lit multiple choice questions are KILLERS. Even people who score a "5" on the test don't get anywhere close to 100%. And I hope you'll be pleasantly surprised how quickly your score starts to come up!
