Hello Forum!
I signed up for the A&I Literature CLEP exam a few days ago, and I am taking it next week. I wanted some feedback from those who have successfully passed the exam on what kind of studying you did, and what resources you used. A classmate of mine took it cold with no studying and passed, but I am not as confident. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

I always recommend looking at the practice test in the Official CLEP Study Guide to get a feel for what kind of questions you're going to see.
If you're well read, you will be fine. If not there are a lot of great threads on this forum.

I remember when the website's search box did this for you. The new built in search engine is pretty bad.

PrLoko-isms
Don't waste time by trying to save time. The only sure way to complete your degree is to knock out credits quickly and efficiently.
Don't let easiness bite you in the rear. Know your endgame (where you want to be) and plan backward from there. Your education is a means to an end.
Be honest professionally, socially and academically. There are people (especially little ones) who look up to you and they're going by your example.
Be proud. Whether you're an Engineer or Fast Food worker, there is honor and dignity in hard work.
Picking on people weaker than you only proves that you are a weak person.

Does anybody have any resources that might help retrain my brain to look for what these practice questions are looking for? I'm apparently just not seeing what everybody else is with this
Would something like this help?

I read some of 500 AP English Literature Questions by Miller while studying for this test. It is just filled with the types of questions that are on the A&I Lit. exam. It is probably a little harder than the CLEP. It is almost surely overkill for most people, but if you need extra training, I think this would help.
