[seanmathews]

Okay so i have decided to start taking my first step towards CLEP testing, this will be my first test i take. Although i am not sure which to take of this section. The ones i need for my Area C for transfer to 4 year are:

Humanities
English Literature
American Literature
Analyzing and interpreting literature

I would like to get opinions from you all as far as, which one you'd recommend i take, any feedback or advice for these subjects, also, study recommendations.

I appreciate the help,

Thank You

A&I Lit is my recommendation - I clepped everything on your list except Humanities - A&I is mostly interpreting literature with a little on terms - Eng & Amer Lit are less about interpretation and far more about the individual authors. Eng Lit covers more than a thousand years of literature, Amer. Lit. 300 years (plus or minus).

Analyzing and Interpreting Literature is a very popular one with first time test takers. Basically you already know how to read, you need to learn certain literary devices to be able to analyze, interp. passages and poems. The exam has old style english literature, Shakespeare kind of lit. Free-Clep-Prep.com has great link to literary terms. Never take any test lightly and you'll be successful, but also don't be fearful any beast can be tamed in this world. Good luck.

A&I is just glorified reading comprehension. If you can read fluently and reasonably quickly, it's one of the easier CLEPs. Make sure you're familiar with the different forms of meter and verse and you should be OK.
