Hi there!
I just took it last month! From what I can remember, there was some analyzing poetry which was a little hard for me. Also, a big thing was knowing the terminology (alliteration, metaphor, simile, etc) which it seems you have studied. I remember some stuff that was fact based about authors or what they said, but like I said there was some stuff where you had to analyze the poetry. I would try some practice tests too before you take it.
Another thing you should do is go to sparknotes.com and read book summaries. It will be very helpful to know the basic storyline of most of the major works that you've studied about in the Idiot's Guide. I know that helped me a lot. Also, go to this website and watch the videos. I found them helpful as well. If you have time you can go to Itunes here and listen to the lectures by Dr. Clark Closser.
Well, hope this helps! Wish I could remember more to help you, but my brain tends to just forget everything as soon as I walk out of the testing center. Good luck and God bless!
