So Im taking my literature test this Saturday.
I just finished a tea practice test with a 34! I did the official clep one and got a 61 and
a 55 on another Rea. I have no idea why a 34! Help?

Oops. Never mind i read it wrong.
So I've taken those 3 tests and scored a 55,50,61. Is that enough to get me through the test?
I hear Rea's practice tests are harder than the actual exam?

If you aren't feeling confident I would say just to keep studying, mainly definitions - they will help the most. I copied and pasted the link for the CLEP Board's page - I don't know if you've gone there yet, but it helps a lot with just knowing what you need to focus on and also what is in the test. Also, the practice tests that REA gives are trickier and they help a lot, but I wouldn't rely fully on that since there will be different information in the actual test. Hope this helps and good luck on your test!

There isn't a whole lot that you can do to study for this exam. It's mostly analyzing of literature pieces. I don't know anything about the REA books because I didn't use them when I took it. It sounds like you are getting pretty good scores though. The link above is a great resource as well as this one.

the way I did the exam
quickly, quickly, quickly skim the passage they give you
don't even really read it
just take your finger and skim through the lines
then read a question
then go back to the passage and find the answer to the question
then read the next question
then go back to the passage and find the answer to the question
if you spend a lot of time reading and making sure you understand everything on the first read through then you won't have time to answer all the questions and read every passage
at least that was my strategy
