Look back through your multiple choice practice for the AP exam and post some literary terms and concepts you are unfamiliar with or which you could use more practice with. After break, we will focus on whatever you all post, so please comment and give us a comprehensive list. The AP exam is less than two months away!

Feminine rhyme, antithesis, contrary to fact construction, internal rhyme, metonymy, verse meditation/epistle/essay, trochaic rhyme, conceit, elegy, didactic, all the iambic terms that go along with stanzas, litotes, pedantic, and semantics.

Litotes, invective and metonymy are three that I have noticed!

I think that we should do an overall review of all of the terms because that will help us prepare for the AP exam!

I agree with Natalie, we should review all the terms to help us prepare for the AP exam. I think also looking back on the things we have read this year and relating them to the literary terms would help us remember them better.

I think we should do more practice exams and questions. I feel I am pretty good at the timed writings and that it is the multiple choice that is bringing down my score, like seriously I am happy if I get half of the multiple choice questions right. Although they suck, I think I could use the practice.

I agree with Tyler that I could use the practice I can get on the multiple choice part of the AP exam. I need more practice on reading the poems and exerts from stories and figuring out the meaning of them. I believe that the more of them I read, I get better at picking up the meanings of the stories.

I think what might be helpful is to go through a whole multiple choice test together. Like Tyler said, that has become the hardest part for me and I think going through an entire test with all the explanations given would be helpful. I think once we hear why certain answers are right we will remember it for the test.

I think it would probably help us all to go over poetry again as we haven't done any for a while. Just a few days of review by the time we take the test would help I think.
