Poetry/AP Exam

Well, after we present our poetry projects, we will finally be finished with our poetry section. I think this was probably the easiest units for me. I mean, I still had a difficulty understanding things from time to time, but I think I’ve learned enough to receive a decent grade on my poetry exam. It didn’t seem as hard as I thought it would be (except for the last ten questions). I do plan on trying to make a sestina poem for extra credit because I really need the points, especially if it will increase my test grade percentage.

What I’m really worried about is the AP exam in May. I take it every year but I never pass it. I think it’s because I am not the best test taker. It’s obvious by my test scores in class. I need to work on my study skills a lot because that is going to be very useful when I go off to college in the fall. Of course, English has never really been my best subject. I’ve struggled with it throughout my high school career, but I’m going to continue to work on it in order to be able to graduate.
