[SIZE="2"]Before making any suggestions, let me ask - how long did you study for AmLit and what sources did you use?[/SIZE]

I used a anthology and a high school American lit textbook with a dab of Sparknotes.

Sache,
I took this test a while back and got a 47 also. I was so bummed. I used the Idiot's guide, but only studied about a week, couple hours a day. That was before I started using the Peterson's test. I decided to take the first part at my local community college and will retest in December to hopefully get the last 3 credits of the 6 offered. Anyhow, don't get discouraged. Win some you lose some. I just took the biology and scored a 66 for 8 credits (my community college gives even the lab hours for the CLEP). This just made me study a bit more. I am by far not a science fan. So keep your head up and press on.
Chris
