It's a mile wide, and a mile deep, which is why you'll notice awful practice test scores when preparing for this one. There's a seemingly infinite pool of content for the test-makers to pull from.
That said, don't let those practice scores discourage you. Just make sure you go back and Google the correct answers so you get it right next time. This test is all about absorbing as much as info as possible, and then using what you know to weed out incorrect answers and narrow your pool of options.
I agree.
I would also like to add something reassuring: if you're good at lit analysis / reading comprehension, then at least you get those questions right. For me, those make a big difference, since I don't like to memorize names, book titles, years, names of schools, places, etc.
