Why Enhanced Prep?
Many tutoring companies claim that they can help students increase their test scores, but very few can support those claims and almost none of them focus on a student's ultimate goal - getting into their dream school. Nowadays, it takes more than a single strong test score to get into college. Students have got to have the grades and the test scores and then some. At Enhanced Prep, we provide a truly customizable approach to tutoring, focusing on each student's specific needs. We match students with the right tutor who can help them study for a biology test one day and prep for their upcoming college entrance exam the next.

The exam covers skills that are outlined in the course including the function of: character, setting, plot and structure, narrator or speaker, comparison word choice, imagery, and symbols, as well as, being able to develop textually interpreted arguments supported by the text. These skills are spread out between different units that cover short fiction, poetry, longer fiction, and drama. The purpose of the exam is to show mastery in the content areas and have high school students have the opportunity to gain college credits.
The AP Literature and Composition Exam: What You Need to Know
The AP Literature and Composition exam is divided into two sections: an hour-long multiple-choice section, which accounts for 45% of the score, and a two-hour free response section, which is the remaining 55% of the overall score. The multiple-choice section consists of 55 questions that are divided between five separate sets. These sets are preceded by passages that are either prose fiction, drama, or poetry. The free response section asks students to write three free response prompts. The exam is scored on a scale between 1-5: 1 meaning the student has no mastery of the content and a 5 meaning the student has full mastery. A score between 3-5 is accepted as passing for the test, but individual colleges and universities have their own specifications for what score receives credit. The deadline for exam registration is in the fall, but specific dates depend on the schools.
