Holy bumping old thread Batman!
I disagree with people that say to not study for A&I. I'm not a big fiction reader so I was worried about it.
Sure, there were a few literary term questions on the test so understanding metaphor and simile are important, but I found increasing my comprehension was important. Understanding tone, the deeper metaphors, and literary devices really helped me out.
I got How to Read Literature Like a Professor from the library and I feel it helped me: Amazon.com: How to Read Literature Like a Professor: A Lively and Entertaining Guide to Reading Between the Lines (9780060009427): Thomas C. Foster: Books
Even without being an avid fiction or poetry reader I managed a respectable 64.
