5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Results, July 13, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Princeton Review: Cracking the AP: English Literature, 1999-2000 Edition (Annual) (Paperback)
I was not blessed with the best in-class AP English preparation my senior year. We read a lot of novels, stories, and poems in one semester, without fully understanding the complexity of any of them. When May arrived, I was terrified of how poor education was going to ruin my performance. However, I began to read the Princeton Review guide, and slowly but surely, I began to learn ways to avoid the monotony that persistently pervades student essays about literature. I learned how to write lively, insightful, color-filled essays that were coherent. These are the type of essays that AP readers want. This is obviously true, because I received a 5 on my AP English Lit Exam against all odds. This book is both concise and witty, keeping you interested all the way through. Strategies for overcoming the pitfalls of the multiple-choice section are also provided. This one is a must-see-to-believe type of guide. Princeton Review, thanks!

Princeton Review is the best in test prep books. The book is clear, funny at times, and keeps your attention long enough to teach you all you need to know to ace the AP test.
