Thanks so much for the helpful study guide. I didn't put a ton of time into studying, but skimmed the suggested readings and brushed up on analyzing passages. I passed the test on the first try! Because my major is nursing, this study guide changed my thinking back to a humanities oriented process. The study guide tells you to know authors, their works and the literary periods- this cannot be emphasized enough! Again, thanks. -Andrea Z.
