    The hardest part for me when answering about the meanings of poems and passages, is that sometimes I interpret meanings differently than how the college board wants me to!

      ​@@christianmihalik7070essentially, just try to get yourself into the mindset of college board. there's a ton of free resources online with college board lit questions for you to study!

    • @MarcoLearning
      @MarcoLearning  Рік тому +28

      Yes! That can be very frustrating, but remember that the test writers have to have a specific reason (based on information from the text) to support their interpretation. Just keep yourself focused on what's in the text and what can be proven from the text. Good luck 🍀
