wolf_babe's "American Literature or How to CLEP out of two lit classes"

Add to my lists | Print this list

I found myself in my senior year with two literature credits needed to graduate. I love to read and write (short stories, fanfic, and bits of novels but not papers) I procrastinated because I was hoping for a miracle that would spare me the trouble of taking those lit classes. It came in the form of a test. For one test that cost less than a hundred bucks I could get both those classes out of the way. Waiting for the catch? I was and it came in the complete inability to find any study materials from this decade. My advisor told me to just take the classes because the lit tests were basically impassable. I passed, barely, but I still got credit and that was what mattered. I composed a study guide and book list. This list is something that I need to put out there and hope that if anyone like me is looking for it they can find it.
