It's difficult to say because everyone has different strengths and weaknesses. For me, I'd pick Intro to World Religions because of my history background (I also took that DSST exam) and American Lit.

Well what I was thinking was take Principles of Public Speaking. What I would really like to know is which of the Literatures is easier. I get what your saying though.

I think American Literature is easier, as well as World Religions.

I think American Lit also because you probably know some of it already just through everyday life. PLus it is a shorter timeframe than English Lit which goes waaaayyy back. I'd vote for World Religion also, but that is just a personnal preference over public speaking. Good luck

People pass public speaking without preparing for it. Just make sure the speech is at least 3 minutes and not more than 5.

I took World religions and it is difficult but not exceptionally so. I was going to do the BYU Public speaking class (I still may at somewhere in the distant future). I do lots of public speaking but having only a short time to prepare on an unknown subject made the exam seem difficult to me. I have not taken either of the lits but from what I have read American Lit looks easier.
